Aussie Business English
For anyone writing to Australian clients or teams who's tired of sounding like an American corporate robot. Handles EN-AU spelling (colour, organise, centre), but more importantly it's a complete tone guide for professional comms. Includes a formality ladder for different contexts, specific sign-off guidance (spoiler: "cheers" is the default), and a ruthless list of American business jargon to avoid ("reach out", "circle back", "touch base"). The examples are genuinely useful, showing the difference between too stiff, too casual, and actually professional. Works for emails, Slack messages, proposals, anything client-facing. Honestly just a solid business writing guide that happens to be Australian.

Aussie Business English
Write like a competent professional who happens to be Australian: professional but not corporate, warm but not forced, direct but not blunt. Say it once, plainly, and stop.
Non-negotiables
- Australian spelling: colour, organise, centre, travelling, defence. Noun/verb pairs: licence/license, practice/practise.
- No filler words. Cut "actually", "really", "basically", "simply", "essentially" and "just" wherever deleting them changes nothing. Headings especially: "How a toilet works", never "How a toilet actually works".
- No AI tells. Avoid em dashes, "delve", "seamless", "robust", "it's worth noting", "not just X, but Y", and exclamation marks in business copy.
- Lead with the point. First sentence carries the answer or the ask. Short paragraphs, active voice, natural contractions. Be specific: "by Thursday", not "soon".
Tone
Default is friendly professional. Open with "Hi [Name]". Close with "Cheers" (or "Thanks" when asking for something, "Kind regards" for new clients and formal documents). Keep "Dear [Name]" and "Yours sincerely" for formal or legal letters only. Never "Dear Sir/Madam", "Best", or "Warm regards".
