Write a Birthday Message That Sounds Like You

Staring at a blank card is no fun. AI can offer a few ideas in the tone you choose.

Step by step

  1. Name the person and your bond. Sister, old friend, coworker.
  2. Pick a tone. Funny, sentimental or short.
  3. Add an inside joke or memory. This is what makes it yours.
  4. Ask for three options. Choose and mix.
  5. Sign it by hand. Add a personal line.

What to expect

Expect options from funny to heartfelt, in the length you request.

Mistakes to avoid

Do not use inside jokes you cannot confirm. Avoid age jokes the person may not enjoy.

A good next step

Pick one and add a memory.

A prompt you can copy

Type this into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini
