Just installed Wordtune after hearing about it on a dev podcast. Opened it up in my browser, highlighted a sentence in my docs, and... wow. The panel exploded with like eight different rewrite suggestions, plus "Casual", "Formal", "Shorten", "Expand". It's a bit overwhelming as a first-time user.

I'm used to more straightforward tools (think VS Code's "Refactor" menu). I get that choice is the point, but I'm looking for a starting point. What's your go-to workflow?

* Do you just scan the first few rewrites and pick the best-sounding one?
* Do you use the specific modes (like "Casual") as your *first* filter, or do you use them to tweak a decent base rewrite?
* Are any of the tone options basically useless for technical or internal docs?

Basically, I want to avoid the "trial and error on every sentence" phase and get to a productive flow faster. Any power-user tips for navigating that initial choice overload?
