The Color System

Seven colors.
Instant awareness.

No pop-ups. No interruptions. Just a peripheral glow that tells you everything.

Friendly
Warm & respectful
Supportive, kind, and easy to receive. Good for personal messages and positive feedback.
Professional
Calm & neutral
Clear, measured, and appropriate for workplace communication.
Blunt
May be misread
Direct but potentially perceived as curt or dismissive.
Frustrated
Emotionally risky
Emotion is showing. May escalate tension or put the reader on the defensive.
Aggressive
High risk of offense
Accusatory, inflammatory, or hostile language detected.
Confident
Assertive & persuasive
Strong, self-assured voice that commands attention without aggression.
Unclear
Vague or weak
The message lacks clarity — the reader may not know what you need.

Features

Built for how
people actually write

Every feature designed to help without getting in the way.

✦
Peripheral Glow
The color wraps around your text box — never over your words. You see it without thinking about it.
🏷️
Tone Pill
A small badge in the corner of your text box names your tone at a glance — and shows you it's working, right as you type.
✏️
One-Tap Rewrites
Click the pill to see how your message lands — then tap calmer, professional, or friendly to rewrite it in one move.
🎚️
Two Ways to Use It
Want just the signal? Keep the glow alone. Want help? Turn on rewrite suggestions — calmer, professional, or friendly, one tap away.
🎨
Custom Colors
Change any tone color to match your preference. Your glow, your way.
🔒
Private by Design
Your messages are never stored. No account needed. Passwords and payment fields are never analyzed.

Designed for Everyone

"For people who communicate differently — including those on the autism spectrum — understanding how tone is perceived is one of the hardest parts of written communication. ToneHue makes the invisible visible."

Built with neurodivergent users in mind · No extra steps · Just color

Coming Soon

Read the room
before you read the comments

A future ToneHue feature: scan a comment section and see each comment's tone as a color — so you can gauge whether a thread is kind or hostile before you dive in. Preparation, not surprise.

Private by design

Your words stay yours

ToneHue is built to protect what you write — especially for people who have every reason to value their privacy.

🔒
Sensitive fields are skipped
Passwords, payment and card fields are never read or analyzed — including password fields switched to plain text.
🔐
Encrypted in transit
The text it checks is sent over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) only to read its tone — never over an open one.
🗑️
Never stored, never sold
Your messages aren't saved or shared, and no account is required. ToneHue helps in the moment and forgets.

Tone analysis is performed by a trusted third-party AI provider under their data terms — your text is processed only to generate the result, is never used to train their models, and is never stored by ToneHue.

It's Live

Install ToneHue free

ToneHue is live on the Chrome Web Store — free, no account, no API key. Add it and start seeing your tone in seconds.
