How to use the Passive Voice Checker.
Passive voice can be useful when the actor is unknown or irrelevant. Only introduce an actor when the source actually identifies one.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Locate constructions where the subject receives an action, then identify whether the actor is actually known. Rewrite only the cases where naming that actor improves responsibility or reading order.

Decisions and troubleshooting.
Should every passive sentence become active?
No. Passive wording can keep attention on a result or preserve an unknown actor. Decide according to the sentence's purpose.
Why did the rewrite invent who acted?
Restore the passive form or supply the missing actor. A clearer sentence must not assign responsibility without evidence.
