Voice Calibration
Teach BlackOps your writing voice by rewriting AI output in your own words. It turns your rewrite into durable brand-voice rules, so the next draft sounds more like you.
Your brand voice is what makes AI-assisted content sound like you instead of like a tool. The fastest way to sharpen it is the one you already do without thinking: rewrite a draft in your own words. Voice calibration captures that rewrite and turns it into rules the AI keeps using.
How it works
When an AI assistant connected to BlackOps writes something in your voice and it's a little off, you restate it the way you'd actually say it. The assistant sends both versions — what it wrote and your rewrite — to calibrate_voice, which compares them and works out what changed: the phrasing and cadence you prefer, and the patterns to avoid.
It returns a short summary, a set of suggested rules, and a voice anchor (your rewrite, kept verbatim as a reference for the right sound). Nothing is saved yet — the assistant shows you the suggested rules, and they're only applied to your brand voice after you approve. Calibration only ever adds guidance; it never quietly removes or rewrites the rules you already have.
Over time, every rewrite makes the voice a little sharper, with no settings to tune.
Usage
You don't call anything directly — you just react. Two moments trigger it:
- You flag the voice. Say "that's too formal" or "that's not how I'd say it," and instead of guessing, the assistant asks you to restate it in your own words.
- You're offered a calibration. When the assistant produces voice-sensitive content (a post, tweet, headline, bio), it can offer to let you restate any part.
Either way, you give your version, the assistant runs calibrate_voice, shows you the proposed rules, and applies the ones you like via patch_brand_voice.
calibrate_voice({
original_text: "<what the assistant wrote>",
rewritten_text: "<how you'd actually say it>",
focus: "<optional: e.g. 'the opening' or 'too formal'>"
})
→ { summary, anchor, suggested_changes } // read-only; nothing is saved
