Ask for a diagnostic pass
Request a list of likely issues before asking for a rewrite.
Set a style guide
Specify spelling, date format, capitalization, tone, and preferred terminology.
Separate errors from preferences
Ask the tool to label actual mistakes separately from optional style choices.
Check layout and references
Inspect tables, footnotes, links, and the rendered file; text review may miss layout issues.
Read the final version
Read aloud or use text-to-speech to notice awkward transitions or missing words.
