# AI Cover Letter Writer
> Configure how AI writes and personalizes your proposals
## AI Guidance
Define how AI should write your proposals.
Describe your preferred proposal style:
* **Tone** - friendly, confident, expert, etc.
* **Structure** - format and organization
* **Focus areas** - client's needs, skills, results, etc.
Vollna uses this guidance to generate personalized Upwork proposals that match your style.
Use **"Generate instructions"** button to automatically create a prompt based on your Upwork profile. This analyzes your profile, skills, and experience to generate tailored instructions.
If you already have a prompt, generating new instructions will replace your current prompt. You'll be asked to confirm before replacing.
## Additional Context
Optional. Enable this toggle to provide extra information about yourself.
Include:
* Your background and experience
* Achievements and portfolio links
* GitHub, LinkedIn, or other profiles
* Any other information that helps AI create more personalized proposals
When enabled, this information is included in the AI's context when generating proposals.
## Client Questions
Optional. Configure how AI should answer client questions during the proposal process.
**Prompt**
Set general guidelines for answering questions:
* Be direct and professional
* Focus on relevant experience
* Keep answers concise but informative
* Explain your process when asked
#### Targeted Answers
Create specific answers for common questions. Each answer can match questions using:
* **Exact Match** - Question must match exactly
* **Contains** - Question contains the text
* **StartsWith** - Question starts with the text
When a client question matches your targeted answer, AI uses your specific response. Otherwise, AI uses the general prompt guidelines.
## Template Structure
Optional. Define a specific template structure that AI should follow when writing cover letters.
When enabled, you can:
* Combine static text with AI-generated parts
* Control the exact format and content
* Enable A/B testing to compare two template versions
See [Template Structure](/docs/bidding/template-structure) for detailed information.
## Testing Your Prompt
Use the "Preview jobs" button to test your AI instructions with real job postings. This helps you:
* See how AI generates proposals
* Iterate on your prompts faster
* Check how it handles specific job requirements
The preview panel shows jobs from your filters or search results. Click any job to see how AI would generate a proposal with your current settings.
