Quick Answer: This template creates your Master Context Card—the 4-layer AI persona document that makes every AI tool sound like you. Fill in your voice, expertise, market knowledge, and constraints once, then use it everywhere.
A Context Card is the single most important document in your AI toolkit. It's a 4-layer persona file that captures who you are, how you communicate, what you know, and what you never say. Load it once into any AI tool and every output sounds like you wrote it—not like a robot with a real estate license.

Follow these steps to get the best results. Each step maps to proven frameworks taught in AI Acceleration.
Fill in the facts: name, brokerage, market, specializations, volume. This layer tells AI WHO it's pretending to be. The personal context matters too—an agent who relocated from Chicago connects differently with relocation clients than someone who grew up locally.
This is the most important layer. Describe how you actually write and talk. Pull phrases from your real emails. List the words you'd never say. The 'Phrases I NEVER Use' list is often more valuable than the 'Phrases I Use' list—it's what keeps AI from sounding generic.
Add your market knowledge, neighborhood expertise, and the questions you answer most often. This layer gives AI the raw materials to write with authority. Include specific data points—not 'the market is strong' but 'median price $625K, 2.1 months inventory as of January 2026.'
Set the guardrails: fair housing compliance, brokerage requirements, content constraints. This layer prevents AI from generating content that could get you in trouble. It's non-negotiable.
Load your Context Card into AI and ask it to write something you write often—a listing description, a buyer email, a social media post. Compare the output to something you actually wrote. If it doesn't sound like you, your Layer 2 needs more detail. Refine until you'd mistake the output for your own writing.
