VIGPT for writers and content creators

You have an idea and a deadline. The gap between the two is usually full of blank page — that moment when you don't know where to start, or you've written and deleted the text a few times and still aren't happy.

AI doesn't fill that blank page to take the work out of your hands; it helps you get past it sooner. Below, stage by stage, is what to ask VIGPT for at each part of writing — and where the decision is still yours.

Brainstorming

The hardest part is usually starting. Instead of asking AI to write the final text, ask it for angles. Give it a raw idea and get a few different ways to approach it:

• "Suggest 10 different angles for writing about [topic], with one sentence on each."
• "The audience for this piece is small-business owners. What questions are probably on their minds?"
• "Suggest three headlines for this topic that spark curiosity."

The goal of this stage isn't to choose, it's to see the options. Out of ten suggestions, usually one sparks and you set the rest aside.

Building an outline

Once you've picked the angle, before writing sentences, build the skeleton of the piece. A good outline keeps you from getting lost mid-way:

"For an article about [topic], give a five-section outline, and under each section, two points to cover."

The outline you get is a suggestion, not an order. Move sections around, cut what doesn't fit your piece, and add what's missing. That editing of the outline is what makes the final text yours.

Writing the draft

Now go section by section. The best drafts come when you provide the raw material yourself — notes, numbers, quotes — and ask AI to turn them into flowing text:

• "Write this section based on these points: [...]. Keep the tone plain and explanatory."
• "Rewrite this paragraph with a concrete example."

The more material you give, the closer the draft is to what you have in mind. If you give only a general topic, you get a general text back.

AI sometimes produces something that looks right but is wrong — a number, a date, a quote. Check claims and figures yourself before publishing. Your name is on the piece, not the model's.

For topics that need current information, web search ties the answer to fresh sources and is available on the Standard plan and above. Prices and plan details are as of the time of writing; see the current list on pricing.

Tightening

The first draft is almost always longer and looser than it should be. AI does well here, because trimming is tedious work:

• "Cut this paragraph in half without changing the meaning."
• "Break long sentences into shorter ones."
• "Remove extra words and repetition."

Then read the result. Put back any sentence that was cut and you want back. The trimming is the model's suggestion; the final decision about what stays is yours.

Adjusting the tone

One text can have several tones, and the right tone depends on the audience. Hand over the same text and ask for the tone you want:

• "Make this more formal, suitable for a work email."
• "Write this more casually and simply, as if explaining to a friend."
• "Make a short, catchy version for social media."

If you're not sure which tone lands better, ask for both versions and compare them side by side. VIGPT puts several AI models behind one subscription, and you can give the same request to a few models and weigh the answers.

Repurposing a piece

A good article can turn into several other formats too. Instead of writing from scratch each time, make new versions from the same text:

• "Write a short summary of this article for a newsletter."
• "Turn this into a five-part thread for social media."
• "Pull three short captions out of this piece."

All of this can happen in one conversation; the original text stays in the conversation and you don't need to resend it. If you switch models mid-way, the history and attached files are kept.

Let Auto handle the model choice

For none of these stages do you need to know which model is best for writing. Stay on Auto: it reads each message and routes it to the most suitable model in your plan. If you have a preference, you can pin a model or set Auto's preference toward quality or speed — but to start, the default is enough.

Your role is still there

AI drafts, trims, and changes the tone. But the decision about what's said, what's cut, and how the final text sounds is yours. Read the text word by word, change anything that doesn't sound like you, and check the claims.

AI is a writing tool, not a replacement for the writer. The best result comes when you take the tool's speed and keep the judgment for yourself.

In short

Start with brainstorming to get past the blank page, edit the outline yourself, provide the raw material for the draft, then tighten and adjust the tone. At each stage, a clearer request gets a better answer — and the final decision, as it should, stays with you.
