From install to your first refined prompt in two minutes.
Everything below is optional after step four. RefineIQ is built to disappear until you need it. If you get stuck, the store listing and FAQ cover the details.
Step 01
Add RefineIQ to Chrome
Install from the Chrome Web Store in one click. RefineIQ works on Chrome and Chromium browsers (Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Arc) on desktop; Chrome 113 or newer is required.

Step 02
Sign in
Open the RefineIQ popup from the toolbar and sign in to create your RefineIQ account. You start with credits to try it, and each rewrite spends one. The rewrite runs on a secure backend: your text goes over HTTPS, gets rewritten, and is never stored, logged, or used to train a model. When you're signed in, you're set.
Model ready
Select text you wrote and a Refine button appears next to it.
2Voice Draft optional
Speak your rough draft instead of typing.

Step 03
Select text and refine
On ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any site with a text box, write your rough draft, then select it. A Refine pill glides in right where you're working. Click it, or press ⌥⇧R / Alt+Shift+R to refine the selection (or the whole focused field when nothing is selected).

Step 04
Review and replace
The pill morphs into a result panel with your clearer prompt: intent preserved, no invented facts, under 500 characters. Hit Replace to write it back into the field, or Copy if you'd rather paste it yourself. Your original stays one Esc away.

Write a polite email to my boss asking for two extra days off next week, mentioning the project stays on track.
Step 05
Or just say it, Voice Draft
Focus any prompt field and tap the Voice pill (or press ⌥⇧V / Alt+Shift+V). Speak your rough draft. A live waveform and growing transcript show it's hearing you. Then just stop talking; ~3 seconds of silence finishes hands-free. The transcript lands at your cursor pre-selected, so Refine is one tap away. Speech is transcribed entirely on your device; the first use walks you through a one-time microphone permission and speech-model download.

Step 06
When a site fights back, the scratchpad
Some editors resist automatic replacement. The popup scratchpad always works: open RefineIQ from the toolbar, type or paste your draft, refine, and copy the result. It auto-focuses when you open it, and the mic lives there too.

Step 07
Pick your mode
In Settings, pick how hard RefineIQ pushes. Clean up is the lighter pass: it fixes the obvious slop and keeps your wording. Sound Human (CEO Mode) is the flagship: short, direct, confident, with none of the AI tells. Switch any time, and the choice sticks for next time.
Settings
Advanced configuration: rewrite mode, per-site control, and appearance. Quick controls stay in the toolbar popup.

Shortcuts & themes

Leaving? Clean exit.
Uninstalling removes everything local: your settings and sign-in session. Or sign out from Settings to clear your session without uninstalling.
That's the whole manual.
