Message Tone Checker

About this tool

Each tone is scored by counting word patterns, punctuation and emoji commonly associated with it — exclamation marks and warm words toward friendly, hedging and compliments toward flirty, short clipped replies toward cold, and so on. This is pattern-matching against surface features, not a reading of tone, context, or what you actually meant — the same words can read completely differently depending on who's saying them and why.
