Detailed instructions

1. Select your company's industry from the dropdown to ensure the generated values match your sector's culture and expectations.
2. Set the number of values you want — choose five for a focused set or seven to eight if you plan to edit down later.
3. Click Generate to produce a list of named values, each paired with a short descriptive statement.
4. Read through the output and mark any values that resonate; discard or rewrite those that feel generic or off-brand.
5. Copy your shortlist and paste it into your handbook, culture deck, or careers page as a working draft for team review.

Use Cases

• •Drafting the values section of a company handbook or Notion-based culture deck
• •Writing the 'Our Values' block on a careers page before a hiring push
• •Giving investors a culture snapshot inside a Series A or seed-round pitch deck
• •Preparing a starting framework for a leadership offsite or culture workshop
• •Building behavioral interview rubrics tied to specific cultural principles

Tips

• →Generate two rounds using the same settings and combine the best values from each — repetition between rounds signals genuinely common principles.
• →Rewrite the generated description sentences in first-person plural ('We believe...') to give values an immediate sense of ownership and voice.
• →Avoid selecting more than six values for a company under 50 people — small teams cannot operationalize a long list across hiring, reviews, and daily decisions.
• →After generating, test each value by asking: 'Would we fire someone who violated this?' If the answer is no, the value may be aspirational rather than operational.
• →For a careers page, lead with the two or three values most relevant to the role you are hiring for — not all of them — to attract candidates who specifically share those traits.
• →Use the generated values as interview rubric headers: each value becomes a scoring category, making culture-fit assessment structured rather than subjective.
