1Start from a profile

A profile sets the sliders, the claim mode and the audience in one click. You can still adjust everything after.

Headlines & hooks
Body copy

Louder and quieter shift Hype by 15 points for that part, so headlines can shout while the body stays credible.

2Tone of voice

Fourteen sliders. 0–33 is low, 34–66 medium, 67–100 high.

CautiousBold

How assertive and decisive the copy should sound. Higher values produce decisive, assertive language without invented facts.

UnderstatedHigh-impact promotional

How promotional and high-impact the copy should be. Higher values make the copy more promotional and superlative-heavy. At 80–100 it writes bold claims without muting them.

AccessibleLuxury / premium

How luxury and exclusive the positioning should feel. Higher values favour refined, craft-focused, exclusive language; lower values favour approachable, value-focused language.

CalmHigh-energy

How lively and kinetic the delivery should feel. Higher values use active verbs and momentum; lower values use steady, composed pacing.

ConversationalFormal

How formal the register should be. Higher values use full sentences and professional diction; lower values use contractions and everyday speech.

DirectWarm / empathetic

How empathetic and personable versus matter-of-fact. Higher values acknowledge the reader's situation and feelings; lower values stay brisk and factual.

SeriousPlayful

How playful the copy may be. Higher values permit wit and wordplay that never costs clarity; lower values stay earnest.

Expert / denseSimple / plain

How plain and accessible versus dense and expert. Higher values use short words and plain explanations; lower values use domain terminology and technical depth.

RelaxedUrgent

How strongly the copy pushes the reader to act now. Higher values emphasise timing and the cost of waiting. Deadlines and scarcity must come from the brief.

Peer-likeAuthoritative

How expert and commanding versus peer-like. Higher values speak as the expert who has the evidence; lower values speak as an equal sharing a find.

RationalEmotional

How much the copy appeals to feeling versus logic. Higher values lead with feeling, stakes and imagery; lower values lead with reasoning and evidence.

BroadHighly specific

How concrete and detailed the copy should be. Higher values use named features, numbers and concrete scenes from the brief; lower values stay at the benefit level.

FlowingShort and punchy

How short and sharp the sentences are. Higher values use short sentences and fragments; lower values use longer, flowing sentences.

Polished / corporateNatural / human

How natural and human versus polished and corporate. Higher values sound like a specific person writing to a specific reader; lower values accept a polished brand-guideline register.

3Claims

Claim riskHigh

Superlatives are free by default. Invented facts (statistics, awards, reviews, guarantees) are never written, in any mode.

Claim mode
Claim types the copy may make

Untick a type and the copy avoids it. Ticked types are written, and the claim check explains their risk.

A recommendation with the risk explained and safer wording. It never changes or blocks your copy.

Sets which regulatory notes the claim check uses.

4Where and who

Sets structure, CTA style and default length.

Changes how superlatives are used.

Direct translation kills punch; the market adapts idiom and references.

Not used: primary copy only.
