AI writing brief
Last updated
An **AI writing brief** specifies audience, purpose, voice, length, must-include facts, and forbidden claims before the model drafts. Drafts without a brief drift into generic marketing mush.
#When to use
Emails, blog posts, landing copy, internal updates — anytime tone and facts both matter.
#When not to
Exploratory freewriting where you want surprise first. Convert to a brief before publishing.
#Quality checklist
- Audience + job of the piece
- Source facts pasted (not “use what you know”)
- Voice examples (2–3 lines)
- Claims that must be cited or removed
