Figurative Checker is an online tool for anyone working with figurative language. It analyzes your text and highlights similes, metaphors, personification, and other figures of speech so you can make your writing more precise and readable.
Detect metaphors, similes, and personification
The service scans the text you paste in and marks passages that use figurative wording. This makes it easier to see which phrases function as metaphors or comparisons, and where imagery may be unclear or overly dense.
Useful for writing, study, and editing
Figurative Checker can support a range of tasks:
- Reviewing figurative language in essays and coursework
- Editing articles, stories, and creative writing for stronger style
- Checking how heavily a text relies on imagery
- Teaching or learning how figures of speech work in real examples
Keep your voice while improving clarity
Figurative Checker doesn’t rewrite your text. Instead, it provides highlights and cues so you can decide what to strengthen, remove, or clarify—keeping the writing expressive without sacrificing readability.
