Slop-chop is a browser-based tool designed to transform text that appears to be generated by artificial intelligence into writing that reads more like it was authored by a person. It addresses the challenge of AI-generated content sounding robotic or formulaic by identifying and revising elements such as em-dashes, buzzwords, and stock phrases in a single pass. The tool is suitable for refining a range of written materials, including emails, resumes, blog posts, documentation, LinkedIn profiles, and READMEs.
A core feature of slop-chop is its "slop score," which quantifies how much a piece of text resembles AI-generated writing. This score is determined by analyzing the density of so-called "tells"—clues that text may have been produced by an AI—along with the flatness of sentence rhythm. The scoring system categorizes text as clean, mixed, or heavy slop based on these metrics. Users can see which words or phrases were flagged as slop and which changes were made, with color coding to distinguish between the two.
Slop-chop operates entirely within the user's browser, ensuring that text does not leave the local environment during processing. For those seeking more advanced rewriting, the tool allows integration with a model for deeper text transformation. Additional features include built-in rules for text cleanup, such as splitting semicolons into separate sentences, collapsing doubled spaces, and toggling between American and British spelling dialects. Users can also specify words or phrases to be preserved during the rewriting process.
In the AI & ML space, slop-chop takes a focused approach. It focuses on making AI-generated text sound more natural and human for emails, resumes, and documents. It is built as an open-source project for writers, editors, and professionals using AI-generated content. slop-chop is open source under the MIT license. slop-chop is available on the web, the command line, and embeddable surfaces.
It is developed by dcadolph, and the product first shipped in 2026. Development happens publicly on GitHub with 142 commits in the last 90 days. Key capabilities include text rewriting, AI detection, and custom rules. It exposes integrations via a public API.
