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.

Using Personas

Reference personas as variables in prompts:

Write this email in the voice of {{persona.SarahMarketing}}.
Write a scene where {{persona.Detective}} interrogates {{persona.Suspect}}.

The complete persona profile replaces the variable, giving the AI all the details it needs.

Common Uses

  • Your own voice — Capture how you write so AI matches your style
  • Brand voice — Ensure consistent company communication
  • Characters — Bring characters to life in fiction, scripts, or games
  • Target audience — Create ideal customer profiles for targeted content
  • Team members — Write in a colleague’s style when needed
  • Historical figures — Research and capture details for educational content
  • Pets or animals — Yes, even your dog can have a persona!

Tips

  • The more detail you provide, the better the AI understands
  • Include examples when capturing someone’s writing style
  • Update personas as they evolve
  • Create as many personas as you need; they’re just context for your prompts
