Personas
Create detailed profiles for people, characters, and more.
Personas are detailed profiles that capture everything about a person, character, pet, or anything else you want to describe. Use them however you need; to guide AI writing voice, provide context about a character in a story, define your ideal customer, or anything else your prompts require.
