Using the Brand Assistant
Brand Assistant is only available with Stream Premium. To learn more or discuss your options, contact your Account Manager.
After creating a brand kit, you can start using the Brand Assistant in Sitecore Stream to generate and manage content aligned with your brand. This brand copilot supports marketers across the entire content lifecycle using natural language prompts and always within the context of your selected brand kit.
To open the Brand Assistant, in the Stream navigation menu, click Assistant.
Customize the Brand Assistant configuration
The Brand Assistant allows you to personalize how it generates responses. You can configure two key aspects through the Assistant configuration dialog, accessible via the Tool configuration 
icon on the chat interface.
-
Configure information sources - control whether the Brand Assistant uses brand knowledge, web search, or both when generating responses.
-
Configure writing styles - choose how the Brand Assistant generates responses by selecting a writing style. Pick from five predefined styles (Formal, Casual, Bold, Informative, Friendly) or create a custom style to shape the tone, voice, and communication approach of generated output.
These settings help ensure the Brand Assistant generates content that aligns with both your information needs and your brand's unique voice and communication style.
What you can do with the Brand Assistant
The Brand Assistant understands natural language, allowing anyone to collaborate and get quick, brand-aligned answers. Regardless of your role, you can use it to:

Key features and tools
The Brand Assistant includes features and tools that help you manage your content strategy and planning. It provides brand-aware chat functionality for general queries but you can also enable specialized tools for specific tasks.
By default, you can readily use the Brand Assistant for:
-
Brand-aware chats - ask any questions or request content in plain language and get brand-aligned answers. Use it to discuss campaigns, strategy, research, brand guidelines, or creative ideas.
You could also enable additional functionality from the Tools menu for the following:
-
Brainstorming - work with AI to develop ideas and create longer pieces of content, such as blog posts, campaign stories, or marketing articles.
-
Briefs- quickly turn a chat into a campaign brief. Each draft includes standard sections and can be published or linked to a campaign.
-
Web search - generate a response using only web sources. When enabled, web search is the only tool the Brand Assistant will use to answer your question.
