About us

Generate high quality, search optimised articles in minutes. Penfriend is an AI article writing tool built with an SEO Content Strategist with 10+ years experience and a Prompt Engineer who's spent 500+ hours refining high quality, article writing prompts. The problem You want to invest in articles that drive organic, evergreen traffic (because paying is not sustainable) but: 1. You don’t have time to write articles yourself 2. You don’t have the budget to hire a dedicated, internal writer 3. Good third party writers are rare and expensive You’ve unfairly always had to decide between: 1. High quality but low volume 2. High volume but low quality And you know an authoritative blog is the only compounding lead generation asset a business has. Perhaps you see the results of your competitors investing in their blog. Maybe they already out-rank you in Google? AI was meant to save the day right? Well, it never lived up to the hype: 1. You don’t have time to become an expert prompt engineer 2. Because of that, the AI content is low quality 3. And so, AI doesn’t give you time saving results That’s why we built Penfriend Penfriend articles are based on a proven, search optimised content strategy that’s delivered $30.1M in client revenue: * High quality articles in minutes, not weeks * A dedicated in-house writer that never sleeps * Consistent, reliable, high quality articles at scale It’s a step by step article writing system that doesn’t need you to know how to prompt. How it works Give us keywords and we’ll: 1. identify the ranking patterns 2. identify the content gaps [so you can outrank!] 3. create clickable, resonating, readable titles 4. formulate comprehensive article outlines 5. populate article sections with dedicated prompts 6. meticulously judge every stage against the criteria 7. format the article so it reads smoothly and logically Finally, quality and quantity, but for a price that you can invest in.

    I built a free tool to learn if my writing is boring. It took me 28 hours to build. You can get it tomorrow. --- There is this idea I learnt a while back called information friction. Essentially it boils down to 🟩 New information 🟦 Elaborated information 🟥 Repeated information It's to help you understand how easy something is to read. But, knowing this concept and seeing it in action are two totally different things. So, I built a tool to display any text with this concept applied. BUT, colour coding it wasn't enough for me. I wanted to see what it was related too. So it does that too. Comment BORING and I'll send you the link where you can play with it yourself. ~ I'll explain in the newsletter next week how I built this. ~ This one was fun :D Thank you to Andrew Holland for the initial post on this. Turned out to be a long deep winding rabbit-hole.

    In 2013 I went all in on SEO. $36MM for clients so far. In 2021 I went all in on learning Linkeding. 35k followers so far. Is now the time to learn video? For those who don't know me, I'm Tim. People don't seem to know I'm British. Despite what that guy down there 👇says, I love blogs. One more for you. In 2022 I went all in on learning AI. @ Penfriend, we just dropped out biggest update yet. BLKFR30 still works...

    I’ve spent 652 hours this year understanding tone of voice. And most people are boring as f*ck. AI cannot write like you, because you don't know why you write the way you do. Let’s be clear. “Funny” isn’t a tone.  “Serious” isn’t a tone. “Bold” isn’t a tone. You can’t have every word be funny, or serious, or bold, or challenge the norm… Tone, or better yet, the feel of an article is in the spikes. It’s where you push the sentence in one direction or another. It’s the contrast of these swings. It’s the build up of these swings. It’s the complete lack of all these things. It’s the “if the author hits you with a hard fact, then they comfort the reader soon after” type rules. Now, back onto the prompts and AI writing like you. How do you expect your prompts to replicate your tone when you don’t define what that tone is? Vague doesn’t do it. Have you ever gotten specific about what your writing feels like? About the unnoticed patterns in your writing? You ever done that analysis? I’ve spoken about this on pretty much every podcast I’ve done over the last year, but your prompts suck because you don’t know the process well enough to define for yourself, let alone the AI. Just a mini rant about AI content, from a guy who owns an AI content SaaS. I see so many companies doing “tone of voice” and frankly, they’re all shockingly bad. This is all to say, we’re doing voice replication in Penfriend. It’s coming soon.  I heard “AI doesn’t sound like us, and it takes too long to make it sound like us” so many times on calls this year. So I spent 28 days of my life understanding what the core issue actually is. And then making a 15 step style analysis. DM me if you want me to make one for your blogs. I already had one of our beta testers tell me they'd paid $1,800 for something worse a few months back.

    "I can get a full article done in the time it took to write an outline" Beta-testers for the new Penfriend are coming through with the sauce! --- It's hard to pull apart something I spent a year building. Like totally apart. Like we've completely redesigned how Penfriend works. And the results speak for themselves. 4 months building this new version. And I honestly believe nothing else out there makes content as great as we do. And it only takes 3 clicks. And we're putting the price up in 2 weeks. I'll put the two articles in the comments for you to see the difference.
