## Avoid fake certainty

- Give a list of allowed claims and forbidden claims.
- Specify compliance: no guarantees, no medical/financial promises.
- Ask for 3 variants with different angles, same facts.

## Before → after: copy you can defend

- Before: "Write an amazing headline for our app, make people love it." The model reaches for superlatives and promises.
- After: "Write 5 headlines for [app], audience [who], benefit we can show: [benefit]. Max 40 characters. Allowed claims: [list]. Forbidden: guarantees, 'best', 'revolutionary', results we cannot prove."
- What changed: there is a provable benefit, a length, a list of allowed and forbidden claims, so the model has room to be persuasive without overpromising.

## A review pass before publishing

- Run a second prompt as a reviewer: 'List every claim in this copy and mark each as proven, unproven or risky, given only the facts below.'
- Replace any 'unproven' claim with a softer, accurate phrase or with the evidence itself (a number, a date, a customer count you can show).
- Keep the final decision with a person: legal and platform advertising rules vary by country and industry, and a model cannot certify compliance.

### Claim audit (reviewer pass)

```text
Act as a careful reviewer of marketing copy.

Facts we can prove:
"""[list of verified facts]"""

Copy to review:

## Frequently asked questions

### Why is the model making big promises?

Because marketing prompts bias toward persuasion. You must explicitly forbid guarantees and require proof-based language.

### How do I keep the tone persuasive without hype?

Persuade with specifics: a concrete benefit, a number you can show, a clear next step. Ask for plain language and say which words to avoid.
