How it works

Four small questions. Three written apologies.

01

Tell us what you did

Severity, who you're apologizing to, the tone. Plus one specific sentence about what happened.

02

We draft three

The Real One, The Full Acknowledgment, The One Without Excuses. Same details, different weight.

03

Send the one that's yours

Edit freely. Copy, send, close the tab.

What it sounds like

Three weights, same intent.

No. 01

The Real One

Two to four sentences. Owns it. Doesn't grovel.

I'm sorry. The thing I said was unfair and I shouldn't have said it. I've been thinking about it and I want you to know I get why it landed the way it did.

No. 02

The Full Acknowledgment

Five to seven sentences. Names what you did, what it cost.

I owe you an apology. I dismissed what you were saying and made it about me, and I've been sitting with how that must have felt. You weren't asking for much. I should have just listened. I'm not asking you to be okay with it on my schedule. I just wanted you to know I see it now, and I'm sorry.

No. 03

The One Without Excuses

Three to five sentences. Pure ownership. No 'I'm sorry but'.

I'm sorry. There's no part of this that wasn't on me. I'm not going to make a case for why. I just want you to hear that I get it.
