About Passive Voice

Passive voice occurs when the subject receives the action instead of performing it. While not always wrong, overusing passive voice can make writing unclear or weak.

How This Tool Works

The checker scans sentences for common passive constructions such as forms of “to be” followed by a past participle. Detected sentences are highlighted for review.

Writing Advice

Active voice is usually clearer and more engaging. Use passive voice only when the actor is unknown, irrelevant, or intentionally omitted.
