What is the new additional feature “Fill in the Blanks” and why should I use it?

Fill in the Blanks (FitB) is FinalLayer's new enhancement to the "Your Story" feature in our LinkedIn post generator. Instead of describing your story in one go, FitB asks strategic questions about your platform, audience, tone, and goals, then generates personalized LinkedIn post ideas stitched to your specific context. The result? Posts that sound like you, resonate with your audience, and drive real engagement, all created in minutes instead of hours.

Writing a LinkedIn post that truly reflects your voice, your story, and your tone takes time even for seasoned creators. What if that time could be cut down to minutes?

We've enhanced our popular "Your Story" feature with a powerful addition: Fill in the Blanks (FitB). Now, within FinalLayer's LinkedIn post generator, you're no longer starting from scratch or struggling with LinkedIn post ideas. Instead, you get a structured, personalized framework where your story becomes the centerpiece, and our AI-powered LinkedIn post writer fills in the rest.

Building on "Your Story"

If you've used FinalLayer's LinkedIn post generator for any LinkedIn Post Ideas, you're already familiar with our "Your Story" feature, the tool that helps you craft posts rooted in your personal experiences and professional journey. It's been a game-changer for creators who want authentic content that stands out and improves LinkedIn engagement.

But we heard your feedback: "I love the concept, but I need more control. I want to guide the narrative, not just describe it."

That's exactly what Fill in the Blanks does. It's an evolution of "Your Story" that gives you strategic prompts to shape your content with precision, making it easier than ever to create engaging LinkedIn posts.

What Sets Apart FitB Feature Different From Other Personalized LinkedIn Post Generators? 

Instead of describing your story in one big block of text, our AI content writer for LinkedIn breaks it down into guided questions that help you think through your LinkedIn content strategy.

Here's how it works with a real example:

Imagine you want to share a story about overcoming self-doubt when pitching to investors. With Fill in the Blanks, you'll see personalized prompts like:

  • Tell your story: "I pitched to 20 VCs and got rejected every time. On pitch #21, I changed my entire approach."
  • What was your first approach like? "I focused on our tech stack and features, thinking innovation would sell itself."
  • What felt wrong about it? "Investors glazed over during demos. No one asked follow-up questions."
  • What was your mid-draft shift? "Stopped talking about technology, started telling customer pain stories instead."
  • What was your final approach? "Led with a 60-second customer problem narrative, ended with three metrics showing demand."
  • Share your results: "Got 3 term sheets in 2 weeks. Same product, different story."
  • Where are you posting this? LinkedIn
  • Who's your target audience? Early-stage founders preparing for fundraising

Each answer adds a layer of context that transforms generic AI output into personalized LinkedIn posts that sound unmistakably like you.

Before FitB (Traditional “Your Story”)

You type everything in one block, for example:

“I struggled with imposter syndrome when I stepped into my first leadership role, but I eventually learned how to manage it.”

FinalLayer generates a clean, readable story, but the AI has to guess your angle, tone, audience, and the message you want to highlight.

After FitB (Fill in the Blanks)

Instead of describing your story all at once, FitB gives you small, strategic prompts:

  • What part of your journey are you sharing?
  • Who is your audience?
  • What did you feel at that moment?
  • What changed because of that experience?
  • What lesson do you want readers to take away?.

FinalLayer then uses these short inputs to shape a tighter, clearer, more intentional LinkedIn post, a narrative with context, direction, and a purpose, written in your tone, based on your answers, not guesswork.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to use “Your Story” for FitB to work, or can I use it independently?

FitB sits inside “Your Story”, but you can use it even if you don’t have a fully written story. Short answers are enough; the system builds the post from your context.

Will FitB make all posts sound the same for different users?

No. FitB pulls directly from your inputs: your audience, your tone, your framing, your journey. Because the prompts collect unique context from each user, the output stays distinct and personal.

Can I generate multiple variations of the same story using FitB?

Absolutely. Since every prompt can be answered differently, you can use FitB to generate multiple angles, inspirational, tactical, reflective, storytelling, or educational versions of the same experience.

Do I have to answer every Fill in the Blanks prompt?

Not at all. You can skip anything you don’t want to include. The feature is flexible; it uses whatever context you provide and fills the rest intelligently.

How is FitB better than using normal AI prompts in ChatGPT or other tools?

FitB removes guesswork. Instead of prompting a generic AI with vague instructions, the structured FitB fields capture exact context, platform, audience, emotion, angle, and takeaway, leading to more accurate, personalized posts.

How much time does it take to produce a post using FitB?

Most users complete their FitB prompts in under a minute and generate a refined, context-rich post instantly, making it ideal for daily posting without burnout.

Can FitB help with maintaining a consistent personal brand voice over time?

Yes. Because FitB repeatedly uses your own inputs, your tone and message stay consistent across posts, making it easier to build a recognisable personal brand on LinkedIn.

Is FitB useful for people who don’t post regularly or are new to LinkedIn?

Definitely, FitB is especially helpful for beginners who struggle with where to start. The guided questions make storytelling easier, faster, and more structured, even if you’ve never written a LinkedIn post before.
