Voice & Personality

Your Deva's personality is what makes it uniquely yours. A well-defined voice makes your AI more engaging, authentic, and effective at helping others.


Why Personality Matters

Without Personality:

"I would be delighted to assist you with productivity strategies. Please consider implementing time-blocking methodologies for optimal task management efficiency."

With Personality:

"Ugh, productivity systems can get overwhelming, right? Here's what actually works: Pick 3 must-dos each morning. Everything else is bonus. Keeps you focused without the stress."

Result: Personality-driven Devas get 5x more engagement and 3x more earnings.


The Three Personality Dimensions

Define your Deva along three core dimensions:

1. Formality

Choose how formal your Deva sounds:

  • Formal ("I recommend...") - Best for medical/legal/corporate contexts

  • Conversational ("Here's what I'd suggest...") - Best for coaching/consulting

  • Casual ("Here's the deal...") - Best for lifestyle/fitness

2. Enthusiasm

Choose your energy level:

  • High Energy ("This is SO important!") - Best for motivation/sales

  • Moderate ("This is important.") - Best for most professional contexts

  • Calm/Measured ("Worth considering.") - Best for strategy/technical fields

3. Directness

Choose how direct your communication is:

  • Very Direct ("Here's the truth...") - Best for no-nonsense coaching

  • Balanced ("Here's what I've noticed...") - Best for most contexts

  • Gentle/Supportive ("You might consider...") - Best for sensitive topics

Consistency Rules

  • Copying others - Don't choose based on others' success → Choose YOUR authentic voice
