AI Subject Lines

Note: Adestra uses OpenAI for generating subject lines. By using this feature, you acknowledge and agree to Upland Software, Inc's AI policy.

When creating a campaign, you will need to create a subject line for your mailing.

Adestra's AI assisted subject line generation tools are designed to help you generate alternative subject lines.

To get started:

  1. Create a campaign and navigate to the options page.

  2. Press the AI Assistant button to reveal the AI assistant options.

    Here, you can

Generate alternative subject lines

To generate AI suggestions using only the text you input in the subject line text box as a prompt:

  1. Enter a subject line for your campaign.

  2. Press the generate button.

    Note: there may be a brief delay while results are generated.
  3. Use the pagination arrows to navigate through the suggested alternatives.

  4. Select the subject line you like most to replace the one you initially entered.

    Tip: pressing the 'more like this' button will generate new options based on the subject line that was selected.
  5. Add the rest of your campaign options as normal.

For further customisation, use the sliders and checkboxes to:

Add emojis to a subject line

To include emojis in your results:

  1. Enter a subject line for your campaign.

    The further you move the slider, the more emojis will be requested/included, from 0 (furthest left) to a maximum of 5 (furthest right).
