We know writing strong, policy-compliant descriptions takes time. That’s why we built an AI helper directly into your description fields. It gives real-time suggestions to improve grammar, tone, and discoverability. This helps you publish faster and stay focused on design.
Where to find it
The assistant is built into your platform account. Open any supported description field, such as a family, bundle, foundry, or designer bio. The AI tools are always visible but remain inactive until your text reaches at least 350 characters. There are no extra tools or steps needed.
To activate the assistant, your content must also be written primarily in English. At least 80 percent of the description should be in English so the assistant can provide accurate suggestions that support our global customer base.
What it can do
- Boost visibility helps your fonts get found more often. It improves keyword placement, structure, and clarity so your listing performs better on MyFonts, search engines, and even AI tools.
- Polish writing makes your copy smoother and easier to read. It fine-tunes phrasing and tone while keeping your original message intact.
- Fix grammar corrects typos, punctuation, and awkward wording without over-editing. It improves quality while preserving your unique style.
- Shorten text trims long or repetitive content while keeping your core message strong.
- When you use a tool, a split view appears. Your original text is on the left, and the AI suggestion is on the right. You can choose to accept or discard the changes. Nothing will update unless you approve it.
- You can also rate each suggestion with a thumbs-up 👍 or down 👎. Your feedback helps improve future results.
How safeguards help you
We built in checks to keep your descriptions accurate, consistent, and ready to publish. These checks run whether or not you use the AI assistant.
For example, if you paste a phone number or include pricing like "$29.99," we’ll show an error so you can fix it quickly. This helps avoid delays during review.
To protect your content and support customer trust, we block:
- Pricing, which can become outdated
- Personal contact details like emails or phone numbers, which are not allowed in descriptions
- Font file types like OTF or TTF, because the format information is already provided on the platform
- External links, unless they point to MyFonts or Monotype
These rules help ensure your listing stays current and focused on the font itself.
Monthly usage and performance tips
Each foundry can use the assistant up to 25 times per month. One use is counted every time you click an AI tool, even if you do not accept the suggestion. If you reach the monthly limit, the assistant will pause until your quota resets. You can still write and edit manually, and all quality checks will continue to run.
Tips for writing better descriptions
The assistant works best when you start with a solid first draft.
- Begin with a clear intro like:
“Moonshade is a modern display serif with subtle vintage curves.” - Mention features or inspiration:
“Inspired by ‘70s logos, this font includes 12 styles with soft, rounded shapes.” - Suggest use cases:
“Great for logos, album covers, and lifestyle branding.”

You are always in control
The AI assistant is optional. You choose when to use it, what to accept, and how to edit. Suggestions are never applied automatically. Your final content is always up to you.
Common questions
Do I have to use the assistant?
No. You can write and submit everything manually.
Why can’t I include pricing?
Prices change by region and offer. We display accurate local pricing automatically.
What if I paste a phone number?
We’ll flag it right away so you can remove or replace it before submission.
Why does my text need to be in English?
The assistant requires your text to be mostly in English so it can provide accurate suggestions that support our global customer base. Aim for at least 80 percent of your content to be in English.
What happens after I reach the monthly limit?
The assistant pauses until the next month. You can still write manually and benefit from platform checks.
