AI is one of many tools in our toolbox that we may use to spark ideas, speed up research or develop content, but our writers are always in the driver’s seat. Real people who work to understand your brand's voice, goals and story ultimately create every piece of customized content we produce for our partners. We only use thoroughly vetted tools, and we’ll never sacrifice quality or the protection of your data.
Our Principles:
We’re committed to using AI responsibly. That means:
- AI helps us work smarter and faster, but final decisions and creative judgment are always made by our team.
- Privacy comes first. We don’t input sensitive data into unvetted tools, and we always follow privacy best practices.
- AI supports our ideas, but it will never generate final partner work. Every piece of content is ultimately written and customized by our team.
- Just about everything has incorporated some form of AI feature by now. That’s why we keep learning. This policy will evolve as our tools and team grow.
