The work brief

  1. 01Pick a product and audience, and decide the ONE thing listeners must remember.
  2. 02Draft the script with AI, then edit it to exactly 55-65 seconds when read aloud (~140-160 words): hook in 5 seconds, one message, and one clear call to action (CTA). Read it out loud and cut what trips your tongue.
  3. 03Produce it: AI voice (ElevenLabs free tier, PlayHT) or record yourself; add music/effects if you can (free tools: Audacity, CapCut).
  4. 04Upload the audio publicly (SoundCloud, YouTube, Drive public link) and test it on 2 real listeners: what did they remember?

What you’ll produce

4 deliverables

Submission standard

Submit the script with timing notes, the public audio link, your production notes, and what your 2 test listeners remembered. Also include your AI workflow — tools, best prompts, and what you changed from the AI’s output. Attach proof of your listener test (a screenshot of their messages/voice notes), and make sure the public audio matches your script.

  • The final script with timing marks and your read-aloud edits

    CTA means call to action: the one thing listeners should do after hearing the ad.

    Written responseRequired

  • Public link to the produced audio

    Must play publicly without login and match your submitted script (≈55–65 seconds).

    Public linkRequired

  • Production notes: voice/tool choices, retakes, what you fixed by ear

    Written responseRequired

  • What your 2 real listeners remembered (and whether it was your ONE thing)

    Written responseRequired

You’ll complete these inside your private workspace.

What you must submit as proof

This brief requires evidence an AI can’t fabricate.

  • Screenshot/photo of your 2 listeners’ feedback (chat or voice-note thread — blur names)

    Proves the recall test really happened; it must match what you report the listeners remembered. Blur their names, photos, and numbers first, and call them Listener 1 and Listener 2.

    Image uploadRequired

Submissions without this evidence cannot be submitted.

Protect other people in your proof. Blur faces, names, phone numbers and email addresses before you upload, and refer to anyone you worked with by role or number ("Listener 1", "the stall owner"). Your proof is only ever used to check your work — it is never published, never appears on your certificate, and is never shown in your public portfolio.

How your work is evaluated

The passing benchmark is 70/100.

Actually produced

29%

A real ~60s audio ad exists at the link and matches the script.

Audio-first writing

29%

The script is written for the ear — hook, rhythm, one message.

Listener testing

14%

Real listeners tested; recall honestly reported.

Authentic listener test

29%

There is first-party proof of two real listeners and their recall, and the public audio matches the script. If the listener proof is missing/invented or the audio doesn’t match, this criterion is a fail regardless of the write-up.

How we grade your AI usage

30% of your score

Using AI is the point — it’s the skill this certificate proves. You’ll answer three short questions about how you used it: what you asked, what was wrong with its first answer, and what you changed. Specific, honest answers score high. “I pasted the brief and submitted the answer” scores near zero.
