What should be included in an intro paragraph?

An intro paragraph should be, above all else, compelling. Common ways to achieve this include: starting with a question, agitating the reader by underscoring the problem, or by citing a quote or statistic.

Following a delightful hook, you should give your reader the context needed to understand the topic. This may include an outline of your thesis, definitions of key terms, or the “who, what, where, when.”

Differences do exist depending on what you’re writing.

→ Blog post: Keep it short and tease the topic. You want to keep readers on page and make sure they know they’ve landed on the right article.

→ Essay: An essay intro can be longer and should outline a thesis that logically leads into the paragraphs that follow.

→ An article: Particularly for a news article or press release, you must include the “who, what, where, when.”

How do AI writing tools work?

Most natural language processing models like GrowthBar, start by training an AI. AI is “trained” by “reading” billions or trillions of data points. In the case of NLP models, the data is webpages. GrowthBar’s model is trained on 45 terabytes of data. From there, AI is fine-tuned by a human review of outputs.

When the user writes a query, a properly-trained AI will result in an output that is logical.
