In RankWell® you can set the tone of voice for your blogs. Choose from default options or teach AI to write like you.

There are three Tone of Voice categories:

Custom

Customize your project's tone of voice so the AI can write posts as if you wrote them yourself and boost your connection with your audience.

The Custom Tone of Voice is an advanced feature. Carefully consider how you train it.

For example, if you include bullet points in your samples, then include the amount of bullet points you would typically like to see in your content.

As another example, if you begin your Intro samples with a heading, then your introductions will begin with a heading.

It is best to train the Custom Tone of Voice with precise samples, as the AI will mimic those samples quite literally.
