How it works
Write with AI works like a personal copywriter and editor wrapped into one content-generating tool. It uses Intuit Assist to help you craft content geared toward your marketing audience.
For new content, Write with AI will generate a text output based on your input and preferred tone. For your existing copy, use this tool to edit the phrasing, length, or tone of your text. Use it to check spelling and grammar as well.
Access Write with AI in the new builder
To find Write with AI in the new builder, drag a Paragraph, Heading, or Button content block into your layout. If your layout already has one of these, click on the content block to edit it.
Access Write with AI in the classic builder
To locate Write with AI in the classic builder, drag a Text, Boxed Text, Image Card, Image + Text, Footer, or Video content block into your layout. If your layout already has one, click in the content block to edit it.
When you add a new content block to the layout, a Write with AI button will appear. When editing a content block, the button is Edit with AI.

Troubleshooting
I’m receiving a message saying my content has been flagged by your moderation tools.
Make sure that your content adheres to Mailchimp’s acceptable use policy.
I’m receiving a message saying “Something’s not right, please try again.”
The best thing to do if you come across this scenario while using this beta feature is to refresh your browser or try reentering your text. If the issue persists, try using the Write with AI at a later time.
I’m receiving a message saying “Our generation tools need more information.”
Write with AI doesn’t have enough information from you to craft a message. Add more context to your input and be as detailed as possible about what you want to have generated.
