Data Transfer Guide
Byword AI doesn't offer direct export tools for templates or settings. Export content manually: Go to Projects/Documents, select all, and use export options (typically CSV or text). Save templates by copying prompt structures and parameters. For import into Jasper: Upload exported files to Jasper's document manager for reference. Recreate templates manually in Jasper's template builder using saved parameters. Set up Brand Voice by uploading your best-performing Byword articles. Note: SEO settings won't transfer directly—reconfigure using Jasper's SEO features or integrate Surfer SEO.
