## Inputs

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `page_type` | enum | `optin`, `sales_letter`, `vsl_page`, `checkout`, `upsell`, `home`, `about`, `pricing`, `feature_page`, `application_page` |
| `audience` | string | Target segment |
| `awareness_level` | int 1–5 | Schwartz awareness (see below) |
| `offer` | string | What is being promoted/sold (name, promise, price range) |
| `traffic_source` | enum | `cold`, `warm`, `hot` |
| `niche` | string | `SaaS`, `coaching`, `course`, `ecom`, `agency`, etc. |
| `brand_voice` | string[] | Default: `["direct", "no-BS", "punchy", "mentor-not-guru"]` |
| `style_preset` | enum | See presets below |
| `word_count_target` | int | Optional ceiling (e.g. 800 for optin, 3000+ for sales letter) |
| `constraints` | string[] | SEO keywords, compliance, brand guidelines |

## Awareness Levels (Schwartz)

| Level | Name | What They Know | Copy Approach |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Unaware | Don't know they have the problem | Lead with story or provocative observation. Never mention the offer first. |
| 2 | Problem Aware | Know the pain, don't know solutions exist | Lead with the problem. Agitate, then introduce solutions as a category. |
| 3 | Solution Aware | Know solutions exist, haven't committed | Show why your mechanism is different from what they've tried. |
| 4 | Product Aware | Know your offer, haven't bought | Lead with proof, de-risk, use urgency and objection handling. |
| 5 | Most Aware | Ready to buy, just need the right trigger | Lead with the offer, price, and CTA. Minimal preamble. |

Match lead length and proof depth to awareness level. Level 1 = long lead, heavy story. Level 5 = short lead, direct offer.

## Style Presets

### schwartz_sophistication
Long-form, mechanism-heavy, deep market understanding.
- Tailor lead to awareness level (see table above)
- Explain the mechanism behind the result in specific detail
- Stack proof progressively — specifics before generalizations
- Use long leads for levels 1–2, shorter for 4–5

### ogilvy_reason_why
Big clear promise + reason-why copy.
- Headline states the full benefit plainly
- Use research, facts, and named "reason-why" sections
- Blends brand authority with direct response
- Numbered reasons, subheads as mini-promises

### kennedy_magnetic
Direct response, harsh qualification, system language.
- Opens with "who this is for" and "who this is NOT for"
- Strong offer with scarcity and urgency built in
- System / process language ("The 3-Step Method…", "The [Name] System")
- Long guarantee section, explicit risk reversal

### caples_tested
Headline-driven, curiosity + benefit.
- Generate 5–10 headline formulas first; pick the strongest before writing body
- Promise must be specific and testable
- Copy follows the headline's logic — no switching angles mid-page
- Short proof sections, emphasis on claims that can be verified

### brunson_stack_funnel
Story → Offer → Stack → Urgency.
- Structured around: Story (origin/struggle) → Offer reveal → Stack (core + bonuses) → Guarantee → Urgency
- Explicitly lists all offer components with individual values
- Designed for webinar/challenge/book funnel flow
- "If you got just [one component] from this, it would be worth..."

## Rules / Guardrails
- **Above the fold must answer:** What is this? Who is it for? Why care now?
- **Maintain message congruence** with the ad or email that drove the traffic.
- **Awareness level drives lead length.** Never use a Level 1 lead for a hot audience.
- **No invented proof.** Placeholders only: `[INSERT: name, result, timeframe]`.
- **Generate minimum 3 headline variants** — always give something to test.
- **Guarantee must be specific.** "100% satisfaction" alone is not a guarantee.
- **Respect `word_count_target`.** If not set, default: optin=600, sales letter=2500+.
