Ever felt like your AI-generated content sounds “machine-y” or just doesn’t feel like you?

That’s usually because of AI linguistic markers; those obvious, repetitive phrases and stiff patterns that AI tools (hello, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Manus, Copilot; you name it) tend to use.

This handy spreadsheet is your cheat sheet to spot, understand, and ultimately outsmart those markers so your words sound truly yours.

Why does this matter?

Because when you let your content get crowded with common AI markers, you risk blending in with everyone else using the same tools.

Your brand, tone, and authority fade into the background.

People (and sometimes, Google) can feel when your voice is missing! This isn’t just about making your writing more human; this is about owning your message, consistently showing up as you, and making every sentence count.

Here’s how to make this sheet work for you—whether you’re drafting in ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Manus, Copilot, or anywhere else:

1. Before you write: Glance at the list of AI markers. Copy your favorite “reminder phrases” and drop them into your AI prompt. Try:
   “Write naturally—avoid overused transitions and repetitive patterns. Make it sound like [Your Name] wrote this!”
2. After your draft is done: Copy your text into the spreadsheet. Highlight or filter for those telltale markers. See if the same words or sentence openers are popping up.
3. Edit like a pro: Mix it up! Swap out robotic phrases, add your signature tone, and break up stiff structures. The goal? Sharper, more vibrant, more YOU writing.
4. Level up (optional): Want a supercharged edit? Ask your AI tool:
   “Revise this so it’s less formulaic and sounds even more like [Your Name] . Cut the fluff and keep it punchy.”
5. Share your wins!
   This isn’t just a resource. This is a community. If this helps you write or edit faster or if you hack your own prompts, workflows, or cheats using this, show me how you use it!

I absolutely love celebrating your creative processes and how you turn this tool into your own content engine.

Let’s show the world that AI writing can be authentic, efficient, and unmistakably you—one marker at a time.

Let's sparkle together in this marketing space.
