AI product description generator: copy that sells, in your own voice

By VODOO AI · · 4 min read

A store with a hundred products needs a hundred descriptions, and most of them end up as the supplier's text, copied word for word, the same as on every other store selling the same thing. AI can write a description for every product in your own voice, from the facts you give it, in minutes.

This guide covers what to give it, how to describe your voice once and reuse it, a structure that sells, briefs to copy, and what to check before anything goes live.

Give it the facts, not the job

The biggest mistake is asking for "a great description for this bag". The AI then fills the gaps with words that sound good and say nothing, or with things that aren't true. Give it the facts and it writes from them.

  • What it is, and what it's made of.
  • Sizes, weights, colours, what's in the box.
  • Who it's for, and the moment they use it.
  • The one thing that makes it better than the cheaper one.
  • Care instructions, and anything it isn't, such as not waterproof.

Describe your voice once

Write two or three sentences about how your brand sounds and reuse them in every brief: "warm and plain, short sentences, no exclamation marks, a little dry humour, never the word 'luxury'". Paste in one description you already love as an example. The closer the example, the closer the result.

A structure that sells

  • One opening line

    What it does
    Says what changes for the buyer, not what the product is
  • Two or three short paragraphs

    What it does
    The details that matter, in plain words
  • A short list

    What it does
    Size, material, care: what people scan for
  • One closing line

    What it does
    Who it's perfect for

Check before you publish

  1. 01
    Check every factSizes, materials and claims must match the product. AI can add a detail that sounds right and isn't.
  2. 02
    Remove claims you can't proveHealth, eco and 'best' claims need evidence, and some are against the rules in ads and on marketplaces.
  3. 03
    Read it aloudIf it doesn't sound like you, add a line about your voice and ask again.

Unique descriptions also help in search: a page with the same text as fifty other stores gives a search engine no reason to show yours.

Questions people ask

Can AI write product descriptions?
Yes. Give it the product's facts and a short description of your brand's voice, and it writes descriptions in that voice for one product or a whole collection.
Will AI-written descriptions hurt my search ranking?
Not if they're accurate, useful and unique to your store. Copying the supplier's text, the same as every other store, is what holds a page back.
Do I need to check what it writes?
Always. Check every size, material and claim against the product before it goes live.
