Formal letters, written for you

How the letters are written
Templates, not a chatbot
Each letter is hand-written and assembled from your answers. It costs nothing to run, works with no connection, and says the same correct thing every time.
Nothing left blank
Skip an optional question and its sentence disappears. You will never send a letter with a stray comma or an empty bracket in it.
The right conventions
Dear Sir or Madam closes Yours faithfully; a named person closes Yours sincerely. Small things, and the ones that show whether a letter was written by someone who writes them.
What this does not do
- It is not legal advice. A letter can be well written and still be the wrong move. For anything with a deadline or money at stake, take advice as well.
- It cannot know your situation. Read the letter before you send it and change anything that is not true of you.
- It does not save your draft. Close the tab and the letter is gone, which is deliberate.
