Clone should preserve Custom Instructions
When I clone a Spiral, I want the Custom Instructions to be copied as well. Currently, the Custom Instructions are lost after cloning, which causes extra work to re-enter them manually. Please make it so that Custom Instructions are automatically included when cloning a Spiral. This would improve workflow and save a lot of time. Thank you!

Very First Spiral
Apologies for not taking a screenshot of the actual problem, but the very first time I used Spiral it got to this screen and it started to go through the guided tour. I didn’t put anything into the box in Step 2, instead I clicked next. Then I input my text into the box. The problem was that the run button and generate multiple button were disabled. I had to refresh the page to get it to work. Guessing it has something to do with Step 2 in that guided tour and how that text box showed up there. Any way, thought I’d share this because it’s the initial experience for all users. Other’s might have the same issue.

'linkedIn posts' just generating empty links
Hey, really excited by the potential of this tool. But when I input an article (I’ve tried both adding a link to the content and inserting the text as body copy to the prompt box), Spiral simply gives me links as output. The links are empty, they just take me to a standard ‘error’ page on LinkedIn. How do I create output that’s actually a draft LinkedIn post I can read?

repurposing Substack posts into multiple NOTES
I entered several Substack posts and then requested Spiral to pull out 10, 3 to 4 sentence long Notes, but it responded “request conflicts with long form, so may not work as required…” (paraphrasing). I need Substack Notes more than I need anything else. How do I achieve this without giving Spiral the long-form post that the Notes will be pulled from?? ariane@arianegoodwin.com Thank you!!

Medium to LinkedIn Article abbreviation
Medium articles are typically about 2,000 words and LinkedIn articles are optimized about 1,000 words. If you can confirm this is correct, I’d like to see a spiral for taking this long form content of Medium, reducing it to a LinkedIn article, then a LinkedIn post. It would also be helpful if long form content could be abbreviated into an X thread and then a series of posts. Lastly, it would also be useful to take long form content and convert to a carousel for Instagram. These might be three different spirals all with the same theme of repurposing long form content into other platforms.

Account Help?
Hello - I’m logged into my every account but not getting Spiral access. I bought Every pro and still have access to Lex Pro but lost my Spiral Pro access. It may have to do with the fact I bought my Every pro access as part of the “writing with AI course” that I then refunded. I still planned on using the Every Pro account, so would love to figure out how to use Spiral. Thanks!

When CEOs Cringe at 'Culture' (And Why They're Right, Sometimes)
Turn this into a Forbes article Recently, I sat down with a CEO whose company was experiencing its fourth leadership change in three years. Despite leading 1,500 employees, they still called themselves a "startup" —maybe they've been holding onto that label a bit too long (!) Even through Zoom, I could feel the weight of pressure he was feeling, determined not to make the same mistake his predecessors made. We were discussing their upcoming executive offsite, and what unfolded was a familiar story. Quarterly strategic changes had become routine, AI adoption lagged, and their mission statement read like SEO copy rather than a rallying cry. When I broached the topic of culture, the CEO's face became red as he deflected, "We need to stop the bleeding with strategy first," rattling off company values as if reciting them made everything okay. The data told a different story 20% of high performers had left in the last six months Decision-making had devolved into consensus paralysis, with routine decisions taking months to finalize Departments operated in silos, leading to missed quarterly objectives and failed cross-functional initiatives Average tenure was under a year, meaning most employees weren't staying long enough to see a single strategy through Every metric concerning the CEO – from attrition to operational efficiency – pointed to cultural issues. Yet I understood his reluctance to talk about "culture." Over 70 years of organizational development have stripped this word of meaning, reducing it to ping-pong tables and happy hours rather than a strategic lever for success. It was one of the primary reasons I wrote my book, ReCulturing. As a career-long HR professional, I've watched our industry create barriers through language that disconnects from strategy and dilutes real organizational leverage. Here are three other examples where our vocabulary has become our own worst enemy: Retention: The Word That Traps Us You see it in most annual HR strategies: Attract, develop, and retain employees. When did we start talking about "retaining" people as if they were objects to be held onto? The very word suggests containment, control, and a one-sided power dynamic that doesn't reflect reality. Employees choose to stay, grow, and contribute—or they leave. By focusing on "retention metrics," we've reduced rich, complex relationships to numbers on a dashboard. Instead of asking, "How do we retain people?" we should be asking, "How do we create an environment where people can both contribute and develop effectively? We're Like a Family: Good Intentions Meet Bad Metaphors No workplace is a family. Families are unconditional, but workplaces have performance expectations and turnover. This cliché often serves as a red flag, hinting at blurred boundaries between work and personal life or expectations of intense loyalty without proper compensation. Instead of invoking family ties, let's talk about what we actually mean: building supportive environments through peer mentorship, measuring team collaboration, and creating clear paths for growth. These are tangible, measurable aspects of a healthy workplace that don't require emotional manipulation. DEI: Acronyms Can Obscure Action (***yes, I am going there) Since the 1960s, and especially since 2020, we've wrapped workplace fairness and representation in increasingly complex terminology. Organizations like SHRM stripped "equity" from their vocabulary last year, and due to political pressure, many other organizations recently took all three letters out of any strategy playbook. We are seeing how fragile acronym-based approaches can be and how these programs are much more than the letters they represent. As Joelle Emerson, CEO of Paradigm, puts it: "We all know that building representative teams, fair practices that level the playing field, and inclusive cultures isn't just the right thing to do; it's core to running a successful, future-ready company." The solution isn't new buzzwords or frameworks. It's about getting back to fundamentals: measuring what matters and taking meaningful action. When we strip away the jargon, we can finally have the conversations that drive real change. Getting to What Matters In our follow-up meeting, the CEO and I discussed "culture" without even using that word. Instead, we focused on what actually mattered: What behaviors drive success in his organization? What metrics show real progress? What outcomes signal that the right changes are taking hold? Before gathering his executive team, we're doing the work that matters: clarifying the specific behaviors he wants to see more of, the metrics that will measure genuine progress, and the outcomes that will show real change. When we focus on observable behaviors and measurable results, the jargon naturally falls away, and real change begins. ***This is such a sensitive, complex, and layered topic right now. The issues we’re experiencing and seeing now with DEI obviously extend beyond the acronym and the individual words behind it. I have written at least five different drafts about what I have experienced throughout my career with DEI, what I see happening today, and how we might come together to still address it, layer by layer. I will continue to work through my thoughts and hopefully have the courage to share more of them with you in an upcoming post. In the meantime, I’d love to hear your perspectives on this topic specifically, and any other comments you have about language and the workplace.
