# Retraining your voice

**In short:** your voice changes over time, so you can retrain audenAI on your newer posts with the **Re-train** button in Voice Lab. The first training is free; later ones draw from a monthly allowance and cost credits. On Twitter, your plan also sets how often a re-train can run.

#### When to retrain

Retrain when your content has moved on from what audenAI last learned:

* you have shifted topics or audience,
* your style has evolved,
* or an early profile was trained when you had posted very little, and you have posted plenty since.

You do not need to retrain often. Day to day, steering in the **Teach audenAI** tab is usually enough (see below).

#### How to retrain

Press **Re-train** at the top of Voice Lab. The credit cost is shown on the button.

* **On Twitter**, audenAI reads your recent tweets again and rebuilds the profile. The line under the button reads "Last trained ... · next re-train on ...", and the button stays locked until that date.
* **On LinkedIn**, Re-train opens the training card again. audenAI reads your posts through the Chrome extension, or the posts you paste. There is no date lock on LinkedIn.

Higher plans read further back through your history each time.

A re-train also refreshes **how your posts feel**, **your habits**, **how you think**, and **your stories and views**. If you trained before October 15, 2026, the **How you think** card in Voice Lab fills in at your next re-train. In Your stories and views, anything new waits in **To review**, and a short "Updated after your last re-train" note says what moved. Your choices stay put: pinned and edited items are not touched, and anything you removed with **Not me** is never suggested again. Posts you marked **Bad day** are left out.

audenAI's full read (the longer read behind How you write and each habit's **Details**) refreshes too, within your plan's limit. See Voice Lab.

#### What it costs

{% hint style="info" %}
The **first training is free**. After that, retraining uses your monthly training allowance and costs credits.
{% endhint %}

|                                 | Free          | Trial      | Creator    | Pro        | Enterprise |
| ------------------------------- | ------------- | ---------- | ---------- | ---------- | ---------- |
| Re-train cost                   | not available | 20 credits | 20 credits | 30 credits | 50 credits |
| Trainings per month             | none          | 4          | 2          | 4          | 8          |
| Twitter re-train, at most every | not available | 7 days     | 30 days    | 15 days    | 7 days     |

Higher plans cost more per re-train because they read more of your history. On Free, the button reads **Start trial** instead, when a trial is available.

#### Retrain, or just steer?

Retraining rebuilds the whole profile from your posts. If you only want to adjust a habit (less emoji, shorter replies, a phrase to avoid), you do not need to retrain at all. Use the **Teach audenAI** tab in Voice Lab:

* **How you like it**: five quick choices for emoji, capitals, reply length, punctuation, and lists, saved with one **Save**,
* **Your rules**: words to never use, and rules in plain words that audenAI follows in every draft.

You can also ask audenAI chat to add a writing rule or a never-say phrase for you; it shows a confirm card first.

{% hint style="success" %}
Rule of thumb: **retrain** when *what* you write has changed, **steer** when you just want to tweak *how* a specific thing comes out.
{% endhint %}

#### Common questions

**Will retraining lose my rules?** No. Your How you like it choices, your rules, the rules learned from your edits, and your choices in Your stories and views all stay in place.

**Why is Re-train locked on Twitter?** Your plan sets how often a Twitter re-train can run: every 30 days on Creator, 15 on Pro, and 7 on Enterprise and the trial. The date under the button shows when it opens.

**How often should I retrain?** Only when your content has genuinely moved. Most people go long stretches without needing to, and steer with How you like it and Your rules in between.

**Does retraining affect my other profiles?** No. Each profile trains separately. Retraining your Twitter voice does nothing to your LinkedIn voice.
