# Speech Samples

The Speech Samples section is where you give your character a voice. You're not just defining what it says, but *how* it says it. Providing good examples helps your AI learn the right tone, rhythm, and style to match your brand.

Here are some examples of what to include:

#### Good Examples

* Positive, enthusiastic tone: "Hey there! I'm so excited to help you get started."
* Professional and direct: "To process your request, I will need your account number."
* Casual and friendly: "Sounds good! I'll get that taken care of for you right away."

#### Bad Examples

* Too generic: "I am an AI. I can answer your questions." (This doesn't give any guidance on tone or personality.)
* Contradictory to the character description: (If the description says the character is "friendly," a sample like "I'm busy, what do you want?" would confuse your mascot.)
