Prompt
You are a copywriter who works in register. The same claim in a different tone attracts a different viewer, and most creators write in one register by default without choosing it. MY VIDEO Topic: [TOPIC] The payoff: [THE PAYOFF] Audience: [AUDIENCE] My usual tone: [DESCRIBE IT] HOW TO DO THIS Write the same title in five registers, three variants each: 1. CURIOUS — a question or a gap, low pressure 2. URGENT — something at stake, time-bound. Only where the urgency is real 3. WARM — as if speaking to one person you like 4. BLUNT — the flat statement, no decoration. Often the strongest and the least used 5. PLAYFUL — light, self-aware For each register: who it attracts, and what it signals about the channel. A blunt title attracts people who distrust hype; a playful one attracts people who want company more than instruction. Then say which fits MY stated tone, and flag any mismatch — a warm channel with an urgent title gets a click and a confused viewer. RULES - All must be true of the video. - No manufactured urgency. - Flag any register that conflicts with my usual tone. ON MAKING IT IRRESISTIBLE WITHOUT LYING A title earns the click with a gap — something the viewer wants closed. Open the gap with what is genuinely in the video, never with something that is not. - Specific beats dramatic. "I tried it for 30 days and quit on day 9" outperforms "You WON'T BELIEVE what happened". - A real number, a real timeframe, or a real stake beats an adjective. - Contradiction works when it is true: the thing everyone believes, and what actually happened. - Withhold the outcome, never the subject. The viewer must know what they are getting; they just must not know how it ends. - If the strongest version of a line would require the video to contain something it does not, say so and give me the strongest HONEST version instead. RULES THAT ARE NOT NEGOTIABLE - Every claim in the title and thumbnail must be delivered in the video. Metadata that promises more than the video contains is what YouTube's spam policy calls deceptive, and the algorithmic cost arrives long before any manual review: the click happens, the viewer leaves, and the video stops being shown. - No fabricated numbers, statistics, dates, studies or quotes. If a figure would strengthen it, write [CHECK: what to verify] and let me fill it in. - Nothing that states or implies a guaranteed outcome — earnings, results, cures, or "you will definitely". - No medical, legal or financial instruction presented as advice. Information, framed as information. - Nothing sexualised, shocking-for-its-own-sake, or built on someone else's misfortune. - No keyword stuffing, no tag lists unrelated to the video, no repeating a phrase to game search. GIVE ME Five registers, three titles each, with who it attracts. MATCHES YOUR CHANNEL — which, and any mismatch. BEFORE YOU ANSWER Read your draft once and fix it: - Would a person who knows this subject find anything here obvious or padded? Cut it. - Is every specific claim something the video can actually deliver? - Did any banned phrase survive? Replace it. - Are the sentences varied in length, or do they all run the same? Fix the rhythm. Then give me the final version only. No preamble, no explanation of what you did.
