Data Transfer Guide

Rytr doesn't offer bulk export functionality, so you'll need to manually transfer content. For generated text: open each saved piece in Rytr, copy the content, and paste into organized documents or directly into Copy.ai projects. For templates: document your most-used Rytr templates (including prompts, tones, and formats) and recreate them in Copy.ai using similar templates from their extensive library. Export any custom brand voice settings from Rytr by noting your preferred tones, keywords, and style guidelines, then input these into Copy.ai's brand voice settings. Save all exported content in a cloud storage folder as backup before beginning the Copy.ai import process.
