- Write effective microcopy for user interfaces. Trigger with "write copy for", "help with UX copy", "what should this button say", "error message for", "empty state copy", or when the user needs help with any interface text.
UX Writing
Write clear, concise, and helpful interface copy.
Principles
- Clear: Say exactly what you mean. No jargon, no ambiguity.
- Concise: Use the fewest words that convey the full meaning.
- Consistent: Same terms for the same things everywhere.
- Useful: Every word should help the user accomplish their goal.
- Human: Write like a helpful person, not a robot.
Copy Patterns
CTAs
- Start with a verb: "Start free trial", "Save changes", "Download report"
- Be specific: "Create account" not "Submit"
- Match the outcome to the label
Error Messages
Structure: What happened + Why + How to fix
- "Payment declined. Your card was declined by your bank. Try a different card or contact your bank."
Empty States
Structure: What this is + Why it's empty + How to start
- "No projects yet. Create your first project to start collaborating with your team."
Confirmation Dialogs
- Make the action clear: "Delete 3 files?" not "Are you sure?"
- Describe consequences: "This can't be undone"
- Label buttons with the action: "Delete files" / "Keep files" not "OK" / "Cancel"
Voice and Tone
Adapt tone to context:
- Success: Celebratory but not over the top
- Error: Empathetic and helpful
- Warning: Clear and actionable
- Neutral: Informative and concise
