How to teach AI to write in your voice
Why AI posts all sound the same, and how to make them sound like you. Three posts, a list of banned words and a few edits instead of long instructions.

Most AI-written posts are easy to spot: "in today's fast-paced world", "it's no secret that", three emoji per line. It isn't the model's fault; it simply knows nothing about you.
Start with three posts
Pick three of your posts you genuinely like. Not the most popular ones, but the ones where you sound like yourself. Mix them up: one about your work, one personal, one with an offer. They show your sentence length, how you address people, your favourite words and emoji.
Say what you never say
A list of banned words matters more than a style description. If you never write "best in town" or "affordable", write that down, so the AI stops adding phrases that make people scroll past.
Give facts, not adjectives
AI makes things up when it doesn't know the details. Prices, service names, address, hours, what exactly a treatment includes: put them in your brand card once instead of explaining every time.
Edit, don't rewrite
The first post is rarely perfect. Fix two or three lines the way you'd say them, and the next posts get closer. Be specific: "too formal here", "I don't talk like that".
How Lurr does it
Lurr learns from three of your posts, remembers your banned words, products and prices, and highlights stock phrases in every new draft. Nothing goes out until you approve it.
