Personalized Narrative Style Guide

M
Written by Mohit at Lucio

Your narratives should read the way you write them, with your phrasing, your level of detail, and your firm's conventions. Profile lets you train Lucio on your billable-narrative style, and your prompts let you tune analytical narratives to the audience and matter. This guide covers both.

Train your narrative style

Open Profile and go to the Narratives tab. Upload a few documents that show how you describe your work, old timesheets or narrative samples. Lucio learns your phrasing, length, and conventions, and applies them to the narratives it generates going forward.

Profile, Narratives tab: upload samples to teach Lucio your style.

What Lucio picks up from your samples

Dimension

What to show Lucio

Style

Writing style from your current timesheet.

Length

A mix of short and fuller entries so Lucio matches your typical detail level.

Structure

Whether you lead with the task, the document, or the time spent.

Conventions

Your firm's verbs and phrasing, for example reviewed and revised, settled, attended upon.

Set jurisdiction and language

Use the language icon in Profile to choose English (Indian), English (US), English (UK), or Japanese. This keeps spellings, date formats, and conventions consistent across every narrative, which matters when narratives are shared with clients or filed.

Choose the language and regional dialect for consistent narratives.

Best practices

  • Upload representative samples. Choose narratives you would be happy to see Lucio reproduce.

  • Edit rather than rewrite. Small corrections teach Lucio faster than starting over.

  • Be explicit on detail level. Say whether you want a plain summary or a fully cited chronology.

  • Keep audience front of mind. A note for the file and a note for the client should not read the same way; tell Lucio which it is.
