I wanted to avoid exactly this for me, so I made https://www.writelucid.cc/. It's free (bring your own API key), hopefully someone will find it useful.

It's a nice-looking app, but "solve good writing with AI" is exactly the thing I'm not interested in.

The way to avoid creating slop is to read and write things yourself, regularly. Be more selective about what you're trying to solve with AI.

You cannot escape the fact that AI has no taste, period. The more creative the medium, the more apparent this is. There's nowhere to hide from even a moderately literate reader.
