Passive Voice Checker — FAQ
How does the passive voice checker work?
It uses the open-source retext language toolkit to find passive constructions — a form of the verb "to be" followed by a past participle — and highlights each one so you can rewrite it in active voice.
Is passive voice always wrong?
No. Passive voice is fine in moderation and useful when the actor is unknown or unimportant. This tool simply shows where it appears so you can decide whether active voice would be stronger.
Is my text stored or sent anywhere?
No — the check runs entirely in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, and the tool is completely free.
