# Brand Brain

Brand Brain is Social Neuron's brand intelligence -- the system that learns who you are (your voice, your audience, your visual identity) and applies that knowledge to everything you create. Every piece of content, from a TikTok caption to a carousel slide, stays on-brand without you having to repeat yourself in every prompt.

You manage Brand Brain from **Brand Studio**, a single page organized into three tabs: **Studio**, **Brand**, and **Intelligence**.

:::note
If you used Social Neuron before, this used to be a "Brand Voice" page tucked under Settings with five separate steps. It is now its own top-level **Brand** page in the sidebar, consolidated into three tabs.

## Studio Tab -- Your Brand at a Glance

Studio is the front page of Brand Studio -- a live snapshot of your brand's health rather than an editor. It shows:

- Your brand cover and an honest **N of 8 essentials** checklist (see below)
- An on-brand rate, so you can see how closely recent content has matched your profile
- A "needs you" panel calling out the specific gaps worth filling next
- An "injected into" strip showing where your brand context is actively being used -- Agent Chat, Recipes and Autopilot, and MCP
- A recent-media gallery of brand-aligned content in action
- A **team board**, for accounts with team members: pinned references plus drafts and approved content waiting in the approval queue, with an at-a-glance view of who is working on what

### Strength Indicator: N of 8 Essentials

The Studio tab shows a strength indicator -- **N of 8 essentials** -- so you always know how complete your profile is at a glance. The 8 essentials are: logo, color palette, typography, tagline, tone, content pillars, audience, and vocabulary. A profile with more essentials filled in produces more consistently on-brand output; the indicator tells you exactly what is still missing rather than leaving you guessing.

:::tip
Filling in even one missing essential noticeably improves output. If your strength indicator shows a low count, start with whichever essential feels fastest to add -- often typography and colors (from your Brand tab's visual kit) give the quickest lift.

## Brand Tab -- Your Identity

The Brand tab is where you edit your actual brand profile: voice, audience, and vocabulary, plus your visual kit -- colors, fonts, and logo, with design tokens you can export.

### One-Step Website Extraction

Enter your website URL and Social Neuron extracts a full draft profile in one step:

**Identity**
- Brand name, tagline, and mission statement
- Industry classification and competitive positioning

**Personality and Voice**
- Brand archetype (e.g., Creator, Explorer, Sage)
- Tone dimensions -- how formal, humorous, respectful, and enthusiastic your brand sounds
- Language patterns to use and patterns to avoid

**Audience**
- Target demographics (age range, location, interests)
- Psychographics (pain points, aspirations, values)

**Content Strategy**
- Content pillars -- the weighted topics your brand talks about
- Vocabulary rules -- preferred terms, banned terms, branded terminology

**Visual Identity**
- Logo and color palette (primary, secondary, accent)
- Typography preferences (heading and body fonts)

:::note
The more information your website contains, the more accurate the extraction. Sites with an about page, clear branding, and social links produce the richest profiles. You can re-run extraction any time your site changes -- for example after a rebrand -- to refresh your profile.

### Platform Voice Overrides

Different platforms call for different tones. Set per-platform overrides so your LinkedIn posts sound professional while your TikTok captions stay casual -- all without losing your core brand identity. Supported platforms: LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and Bluesky.

### Versioning and Rollback

Every change to your brand profile creates a new version. You can view the full history of changes, compare any two versions, and roll back to a previous version with one click -- so you can experiment with a new tone or content pillar set without fear of losing what worked before.

## Intelligence Tab -- How Your Brand Learns

The Intelligence tab has two parts: **Memory** -- the sources your brand profile draws on (your website, uploaded guidelines, sample content, past extractions) -- and **Learning**, the performance feedback loop below. Memory is available on Pro plans and higher.

### The Feedback Loop

Brand Brain is not static -- it improves with every piece of content you publish:

1. **You create and publish content** through Social Neuron
2. **Analytics track what performs** -- which posts get engagement, shares, and conversions
3. **High-performing patterns surface** -- the tones, hooks, and topics that resonate with your audience
4. **Future content reflects what works** -- proven patterns are weighted higher in recommendations

The more you use the platform, the sharper Brand Brain gets at predicting what your audience wants to see.

### Brand Consistency Checking

Before content goes live, you can run a brand consistency check comparing a draft against your brand profile. It flags:

- Tone drift (too formal when your brand is casual, or vice versa)
- Off-brand vocabulary or phrases
- Missing brand elements (no CTA, no hashtags when your style calls for them)
- Audience mismatch (content targeting the wrong persona)

## Tips for Best Results

**Provide your website URL.** Even a simple site gives Brand Brain concrete signals to work with -- colors, copy, and positioning are all extracted automatically.

**Give examples of content you like.** Show Brand Brain a post you loved and explain why, or flag a post that missed the mark.

**Check your essentials count.** Profiles missing key essentials produce more generic results. Use the strength indicator on the Studio tab as your checklist.

**Review and refine.** After extraction, spend a few minutes adjusting anything that does not look right. Small corrections early save you from repeated fixes later.
