Sound Like You: Free ChatGPT Prompt and Custom Instructions
Two free downloads in one PDF: a copy-and-paste prompt that interviews you first and writes from your story, plus short custom instructions you set once so every chat writes in plain words. Works in ChatGPT and Claude.

1. Sound Like You: the prompt (pages 1 and 2)
Use it for one post or one email. Paste it into a new chat and ChatGPT interviews you before it writes anything:
- What are you writing, and who will read it?
- What actually happened?
- One or two details only you would know: a number, a name, a place.
- How did you feel about it, and what's your opinion?
Then it writes from your answers, in plain words, without inventing facts. It avoids the habits that make writing sound like AI, runs a "delete test" on every line, and shows you only the draft. There's also an edit mode for polishing your own writing without changing what you mean.
2. Sound Like You, Always On: custom instructions (page 3)
Set it once and every new chat follows it. It fits in ChatGPT's 1,500-character Custom Instructions box, and it works in Claude's settings or in a Claude Project. The page shows exactly where to paste it and gives three tips for keeping it working in long chats.
Who it's for
Small-business owners and anyone who uses ChatGPT or Claude to write posts, emails or updates and wants them to sound like a person wrote them.
An honest note
This won't make writing "undetectable," and I wouldn't trust any prompt that says it will. It gets ChatGPT to write from your story, in plain words, so it sounds like you.
