Twenty years ago, finding your brand’s voice was a creative exercise. Today, it’s also a technical one. As generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini and others make their way into marketing and communication workflows, brand voice is no longer just a “nice-to-have” — it’s the only thing separating you from a flood of sameness.
Because let’s be honest: AI can write. But without the right guidance, it can’t sound like you.
So what is brand voice — and why does it matter?
Brand voice is the tone, language, and rhythm that defines how your brand shows up in words. It’s not just your tagline — it’s how you write your emails, your product descriptions, your social media captions. It’s the difference between sounding human or robotic, warm or clinical, curious or confident.
In a world where everyone is using the same tools, voice becomes the filter. It’s how your message cuts through.
But here’s the challenge…
AI doesn’t know your brand voice. Not by default. It needs to be trained — not in the machine learning sense, but in the strategic sense. It needs sample copy, tone-of-voice guidelines, and clear prompts that show it how you communicate, what you care about, and how you relate to your audience.
Without this, you risk sounding like everyone else.
