2

AI retrieves context

Searches your knowledge base for relevant facts, examples, and references.

3

Style matching applied

Your writing profile ensures the content sounds like you.

4

Content streams to you

Watch as the AI writes in real-time. Edit as it generates.

Writing Effective Prompts

The Anatomy of a Good Prompt

A well-crafted prompt includes these elements:

Topic

What you're writing about. Be specific, not vague.

Audience

Who you're writing for. Their knowledge level matters.

Tone

Casual, professional, technical, or conversational.

Key Points

Must-include facts, examples, or arguments.

Examples: Vague vs. Specific

VAGUEPrompt that produces generic content

Write about artificial intelligence

SPECIFICPrompt that produces targeted content

Write a 1000-word blog post for B2B SaaS founders explaining how AI can automate customer support without losing the human touch. Include 2-3 real examples and keep the tone conversational but professional.

Pro Tip: Think of prompts as giving instructions to a talented writer. The more context you provide, the better they can deliver what you need.

Best Practices

Always Review AI Output

AI is a starting point, not the finish line. Add your expertise and personal touch.

Use Your Knowledge Base

The more context you provide, the more accurate and relevant your content will be.

Iterate on Prompts

If the first generation isn't perfect, refine your prompt and regenerate specific sections.

Run AI Reviews

Use style, fact, and engagement reviews to polish your content before publishing.

Use All Three AI Reviews

Don't skip the review step. Run style, fact, and engagement reviews to catch issues before publishing.

Keep Refining Your Profile

Update your writing profile as your style evolves. More samples = better matching.
