Using the Blog Writer

Learn how to use Halo Studio's Blog Writer tool to create on-brand blog posts

The Blog Writer is one of Halo Studio's most powerful content tools. It generates complete, on-brand blog posts tailored to your brand voice and guidelines with model-specific length options for guaranteed quality.

๐Ÿ“ How to Access

Navigate to Halo Studio from the sidebar, then select Blog Writer. Or go directly to /labs/blog-writer.


How It Works

The Blog Writer uses your Brand Intelligence to generate blog posts that:

  • Match Your Voice: Content sounds authentically like your brand
  • Align With Values: Messaging reflects your brand values and positioning
  • Maintain Consistency: Every post follows your brand guidelines
  • Target Your Audience: Content speaks to your defined target audience

Step-by-Step Guide

1
Enter Your Topic

Describe what you want to write about. Be specific for better results:

  • Good: "Write a blog post about sustainable packaging"
  • Better: "Create a 1000-word blog post explaining how sustainable packaging reduces environmental impact, targeting small business owners"
2
Choose Model & Length

Select your AI model and desired length:

  • Premium (Claude Sonnet 4.5): Short (500-700), Medium (1000-1500), or Long (2000-2500 words)
  • Balanced (GPT-4o): Short (500-700) or Medium (1000-1500 words) only
  • Economy (Llama 3.3): Short (500-700) or Medium (1000-1500 words) only

Long posts (2000+ words) are only available with Premium model for guaranteed quality. If you select Long and switch to Balanced/Economy, it automatically switches to Medium.

3
Configure Additional Options

Adjust other settings as needed:

  • Tone: Uses your brand's tone automatically, with optional adjustments
  • Keywords: Add specific keywords to include
  • Target Audience: Specify if different from your brand's default audience
4
Generate

Click Generate or press Ctrl+Enter (Windows) / Cmd+Enter (Mac). The Blog Writer creates a complete post based on your Brand Intelligence. A word count badge shows progress toward your target length.

5
Review and Edit

Review the generated content. You can:

  • Edit directly in the editor
  • Regenerate for a different approach
  • Copy the content to use elsewhere
  • Export as markdown, RTF, or plain text
  • Save to Asset Library for future reference

Understanding Length Options

Length options are model-specific to ensure quality:

๐Ÿ“ Short (500-700 words)

Available with all models. Perfect for quick posts, announcements, or summaries.

๐Ÿ“„ Medium (1000-1500 words)

Available with all models. Standard blog post length for most topics.

๐Ÿ“š Long (2000-2500 words)

Premium model only. Comprehensive, in-depth articles with guaranteed quality.

๐Ÿ’ก Why Model-Specific Lengths?

Premium model (Claude Sonnet 4.5) consistently delivers high-quality long-form content. Other models can technically generate 2000+ words but struggle with quality and consistency. Model-specific restrictions ensure you always get the best results for your chosen length.
