Persona
Build a marketing audience persona and illustrate it with a street-style portrait
How it works
- From any strategy, open Strategy → Persona.
- Give it: Brief, Language, Brand, City and 2 more.
- Set the options you want, then run it to get back written copy.
The copy is written back onto the page and kept on the notebook or strategy it was written in.
Where to find it

Playgrounds you have not picked are hidden from the navigation rather than taken away — add this one back from your playgrounds settings at any time.
You can also just ask for it in a chat: this playground needs nothing picked off your machine, so the assistant can run it for you.
