Check whether the input is complete. List missing or contradictory details instead of filling them in.
Preserve meaning, position, data and uncertainty. Do not turn correlation into causation or a suggestion into an established finding.
Add no research findings, sources or citations. Mark unverifiable details for author confirmation.
Return: (1) a revised draft; (2) a change log with original, revision and reason;
(3) an author checklist covering numbers, names, citations, claims and qualifiers.
Provide a draft only. Do not submit, send or overwrite the original.
Original
We analyzed 24 questionnaires and observed a positive correlation between tool use and self-reported efficiency; this does not show that the tool improved efficiency.
Editing illustration
An analysis of 24 questionnaires found a positive correlation between tool use and self-reported efficiency. This result does not support a causal claim that the tool improved efficiency.
| Fact | Illustration | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Sample | 24 questionnaires | Unchanged |
| Relationship | positive correlation | Unchanged |
| Causal limitation | does not support a causal claim | Kept, reworded |
If the draft adds significance, an effect size, a sample source or a citation, reject the addition and ask for a rewrite based only on the original.
This is a suggested editing method, not a verified Cue walkthrough. Review the draft yourself before using it; keep the original.
People looking for an AI paper assistant usually want to know four things: whether it can shift a passage into an academic register, whether it can reduce repetitive phrasing, whether it handles Chinese and English, and whether using it costs the author control of the paper. Cue is built to help you review and rewrite. It does not reach research conclusions for you.
Yes. You can say “make this more formal and academic”, “keep the meaning but cut the repetition”, or “rewrite this in the style of an English abstract”. Cue returns a version for you to review; it does not submit anything for you.
Cue is not a substitute for your institution’s or a journal’s formal originality-checking system. It can help you find repeated sentence patterns, informal phrasing, places that are missing a citation, and paragraphs that need reorganizing. It suits a self-check before the formal one.
Polishing a literature review, rewriting an abstract, translating between Chinese and English, expanding a paragraph, improving a title, building a citation checklist, and revising after supervisor feedback. The accuracy of data, experimental conclusions and citations remains the author’s responsibility.
The same Cue can work from content you supply or that is already visible to help draft an email, meeting notes, a plan for organizing files, a code comment or a research question. Review the result before you use it.
