AI Voice Prompt Starter
AI Voice Prompt Starter
The questions to answer before you write anything with AI — so what comes out actually sounds like you. Copy the prompt below, fill in your answers, and paste it into Claude or ChatGPT as your starting point.
How to use this
Copy the prompt below. Answer each question in plain language — do not overthink it. Paste your completed version at the top of any new Claude or ChatGPT conversation before you ask it to write anything. That is it. You are giving the AI enough context to start from your voice instead of a generic one.
You do not need to answer every question perfectly. A rough answer is better than a blank. The more specific you are, the better the output.
The prompt
Want a version built specifically for you?
This starter prompt gets you most of the way there. The Aligned Voice Profile goes further — it captures your sentence rhythm, your hard rules, your confidence level by topic, and your real writing samples, then turns all of it into a custom skill file you install in Claude once. Every conversation after that starts from your voice instead of a blank slate.
