Every time you speak at an event, send a proposal or update a website, someone asks for your bio, and every time the space is different. The Professional Bio tool writes three versions from a single brief, a short bio of about 35 words, a medium one of about 90 and a long one of about 200, so the right length is always ready.
You give it your name and a few lines on your role, expertise, key achievements, who you help and, if you like, a personal touch such as your city or interests. Each version leads with what you do and for whom, continues with expertise and achievements, and ends with a human note when the brief offers one.
No degrees, awards, employers or numbers are added beyond what you wrote. The tool belongs to the Business documents family. For the first-person text on your profile, use the LinkedIn About Section tool.
What you get
- A Short bio of about 35 words, for social profiles and speaker introductions
- A Medium bio of about 90 words, for author boxes, team pages and event programs
- A Long bio of about 200 words, for websites, press kits and proposals
- Third-person text by default, or first person if your brief asks for it
What you fill in
- Your name optional
-
e.g. Laura Bianchi
- About you optional
-
Role, expertise, key achievements, who you help and, if you like, a personal touch such as your city or interests.
How to use it, step by step
-
Enter your name
Type your name in Your name exactly as it should appear in print, with or without a middle name or professional title.
-
Write about yourself in a few lines
In About you, add your role, your expertise, two or three achievements, who you help and an optional personal touch.
-
Ask for the first person if you need it
The default is the third person, standard for events and press. If you want the bio for your own website in the first person, add write in the first person to the About you field.
-
Generate and use each length where it fits
Choose the language and tone, generate and save all three versions. Use the short one for social profiles, the medium one for event programs and the long one for your website or proposals.

Tips for better results
- List achievements as facts, not adjectives. Photographed a cookbook for a local publisher gives the tool more than talented photographer.
- Say who you help. The opening sentence of every version is built around it.
- Add one personal detail if the bio is for events or your website. It makes introductions warmer, and the tool places it at the end.
Who uses it, and for what
Speaker at a conference or webinar
Send the short bio for the spoken introduction and the medium one for the event page, both written from the same brief.
Freelancer or consultant sending proposals
Add the long bio to the about section of a proposal, then reuse the short one in the email that accompanies it.
Limits and good practice
- It writes only from your brief. Degrees, awards, employers and numbers you do not mention will not appear.
- Word counts are approximate, and the long version is shorter when the brief has few facts. Organizers with a strict limit may need a small trim.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a professional bio and a LinkedIn About section?
A professional bio is usually written in the third person and used by others to introduce you, at events, in press kits, on team pages and in proposals. The LinkedIn About section is written in the first person, in your own voice, with its own length limit and hook.
How long is each bio?
The short bio is about 35 words, the medium one about 90 and the long one about 200. These are upper targets, not exact counts, and the tool stops earlier when the brief does not have enough facts. If an organizer gives you a strict word limit, start from the closest version and trim it by hand.
Can I get my bio in the first person?
Yes. The default is the third person, which is standard for events and media. Add a short line such as write in the first person to the About you field, and all three versions will use I instead of your name.
Will the tool exaggerate my achievements?
No. It uses only the facts in your brief and never adds degrees, awards, employers or numbers. It can make your wording clearer, but the substance stays yours. For a stronger bio, add more specific achievements to the brief rather than more adjectives.
Can I write a bio for someone else?
Yes, for example for a colleague, a speaker you are introducing or a member of your team. Use their name and the facts they have shared or approved, and ask them to read the result before it is published, since a bio speaks on their behalf.
