6 Pros and 3 Cons of using Jasper AI

This is our Jasper AI review.

I have been using Jasper since it was called Conversion AI. Since then, it has boomed in popularity and the features have become more robust, adding value and making the lives of many writers a lot easier.

In this Jasper AI review, I will be discussing the major benefits and features of this artificial intelligence generated writing assistant, along with some common faults that affect it. The goal of  this piece is to simply inform potential users, so they can start their journey with Jasper AI with both eyes open.

Jasper AI Review: What’s it all about?

Jasper AI (formerly Jarvis.ai) is a copywriting tool that uses machine learning and the latest artificial intelligence (GPT3) to write high-quality content and streamline the writing process. The writing assistant is geared towards marketers, copywriters, writers, and agencies looking to write high-converting content.

Copy options include social posts, ads, emails, product descriptions, stories, and more. You can also write long-form content like blog posts with Boss Mode.

Why the name Change?

Jarvis AI (formerly Conversion.ai) has recently done another rebranding, changing their name to Jasper AI.

This name change is mainly due to a cease and desist order from Marvel (Disney) regarding their JARVIS trademark. To avoid a possibly long and drawn out court case which would distract them from providing the best product possible, Jarvis AI decided to rebrand as Jasper AI.

It’s important to note that there have been no major changes in the software’s services that will negatively impact user experience and output results. If anything, Jasper.AI now has a newfound drive to further improve upon their product.

How to use Jasper AI?

Getting started with this writing assistant is pretty straightforward:

Step 1. Choose a template from the 50+ Jasper offers.

Let’s imagine that I am writing a blog post, and I’d like to get some help to write the introduction. In that case, I would select the Blog Post Intro Paragraph template.

Step 2. Provide the required inputs.

For this template, I’ll have to input my blog post title, target audience, and tone of voice. I’ll also have to select the number of outputs I want to receive.

Step 3. Generate AI content.

The outputs will then be generated within 30 seconds.
