Create a brand voice guide that AI actually follows

Turn your best writing into rules any AI tool can apply, so marketing copy stops sounding generic.

Start from real examples

Collect three to five pieces of writing that sound exactly like you: a great email, a website section, a post that did well. Paste them in and ask the AI to analyse the voice.

Here are examples of our best writing.
<examples>...</examples>

Describe the voice as a guide with:
- 5 "we always" rules and 5 "we never" rules
- Typical sentence length and reading level
- Words we use, and words we'd never use
- One example sentence that's on-brand and one that's off-brand

Use it everywhere

Edit the guide until it's right, then paste it at the top of every marketing prompt or save it in custom instructions or a project. Review the first few outputs against it and tighten any rule that gets ignored.

Tip: "Never" rules work best when they're concrete: "no exclamation marks" beats "don't be too excited".
