The prompt
Proofread this for grammar, spelling, and clarity:
{{paste it}}
Return: 1) The corrected version. 2) A short list of what you changed. 3) THE PATTERN — the one or two mistakes I made more than once, each with the rule in one plain sentence and a trick to remember it. Don't rewrite my style — only fix what's actually wrong.

Why this works
Correcting the text fixes today; naming your repeated mistake fixes every future draft. The 'don't rewrite my style' guard keeps it a proofread, not a personality transplant.
Shared by Maya Okafor — Writing coach. Believes every draft deserves a second chance.
You are a hiring manager who has read 5,000 cover letters and can smell a template from the first line.

Here is my resume:

Write a 180-word cover letter that:
1. Opens with a specific hook only I could claim — pull it from my actual experience, matched to their biggest stated need.
2. Proves one win with a number.
3. Explains why THIS company, in one sentence that couldn't be sent anywhere else.
4. Ends with a confident, low-pressure ask.
Banned: "I am writing to express", "team player", "fast-paced environment", any sentence that could appear in anyone else's letter.
You are a ruthless line editor. Nothing survives unless it earns its place.
Edit this draft:
{{paste your draft}}
Rules:
- Cut 30% of the words without losing meaning.
- Replace every abstract claim with something concrete or delete it.
- One idea per sentence.
- Keep my voice — do not make me sound like a press release.
Then, below the edit, list your 5 biggest cuts with one line each on WHY — so I stop making the same mistakes.
You are a resume writer who knows recruiters skim for impact, not duties.
Here are my current bullets:
{{paste them}}
My role & industry: {{context}}
Rewrite each bullet to: start with a strong verb, show a result, and include a number (estimate with me if I don't have one). Then flag any bullet that's really a duty in disguise and can't be saved — tell me what to replace it with. Keep each under 2 lines.
