Three formulas, three lines
Every tagline below was written for Parallel, which makes aI that drafts contracts for small law firms. Try all three formulas for your own startup, then keep the strongest.
What the customer gets, in a few words.
8 words
What you do that the usual option does not.
6 words
A short commitment you keep every time.
4 words
The competitor swap test
Put a competitor's name in front of your line. If it still makes sense, it is not yours yet.
Any AI company could say this.
Also weak: “The future of law is here”
Specific to what Parallel does, so a competitor could not borrow it without changing their product.
See it with the logo
A tagline lives under or beside the logo, never inside it. Here is Parallel's line on light, dark and on the browser extension.
Check it before you print it
Purple-to-blue gradients and glowing orbs. Every AI landing page looks the same. Your tagline is where you say the opposite out loud.
Questions
What makes a good tagline for an AI startup?
It says something only you can say, in three to seven words. For example: "Contract review without the late nights."
What is the competitor swap test?
Put a competitor's name in front of your tagline. If it still works, your tagline is too generic.
Should a tagline go in my logo?
Keep it as a separate line under or beside the logo, so the logo still works on its own at small sizes.
