CTA generator: call-to-action options for your offer.
Enter what you are offering and, optionally, who it is for. You get a set of CTA options to edit, and the guide below explains how to pick the one that is clear and honest about what the click does.

CTA generator
Runs on our server. Your text is sent to Anthropic's Claude to write the result. We count runs and never save what you enter; an identical request may be answered from memory for up to five minutes.
What you can do with it
- Replace a vague 'Submit' or 'Learn more' button with one that says what happens
- Write CTAs for different stages of the same page, from reading to buying
- Draft options to test against each other on a landing page
- Check that a CTA matches what the offer actually requires
How it works, step by step
- 1
Write down what happens after the click
Be literal. Does the reader download a file, see pricing, book a call, start a trial, enter card details? The CTA should say that, because uncertainty about the next screen is a common reason people do not click.
- 2
Match the commitment to the stage
Someone reading a guide is not ready to book a demo. Offer a step that fits where they are: read the next guide, get the template, see an example. Save the bigger asks for pages where the reader has already shown intent.
- 3
Lead with a verb and the thing they get
'Get the invoice template' beats 'Submit'. 'See pricing' beats 'Learn more'. The verb says what to do and the object says what they walk away with.
- 4
Remove the doubt that stops the click
A short line next to the button can answer the likely objection: how long it takes, whether a card is needed, whether they can cancel. Only say what is true of the offer.

Read it out of context
Buttons get scanned on their own. If the button text makes sense without the paragraph above it, a skimming reader will understand it too.
Say what happens after the click
Most weak CTAs have the same flaw: they describe the action, not the outcome. “Submit”, “Continue” and “Learn more” tell the reader to click without telling them what they get. Compare them with “Get the checklist”, “See plans and prices” or “Book a 20-minute call”. Each one names the result, so the reader can decide whether they want it.
A good test is to cover the rest of the page and read only the button. If you can tell what the next screen will be, the CTA is doing its job.
Match the ask to the stage
People arrive at different pages at different points in a decision. A blog reader who found you through a search for a definition is early. Someone on your pricing page is late. The CTA should ask for a step that fits:
- Early, on guides and articles: a related guide, a template, a free tool, a newsletter.
- Middle, on comparison and use-case pages: an example, a case study, a short product tour.
- Late, on pricing and product pages: start the trial, book the call, buy.
Asking an early reader for a sales call is not bold, it is out of place. Offering a late reader another article wastes their intent.
Honesty is part of the copy
The words next to a button are a promise, and the next screen checks it. If you write “Start free trial” and the next step asks for a card, the reader feels caught out even if the trial is genuinely free for seven days. Put the condition where they can see it before they click: “7-day trial, card required, cancel any time.” That line may cost a few clicks from people who were never going to continue, and it keeps the trust of the ones who do.
The same goes for “instant”, “no commitment” and “cancel any time”. Use them only if they are true.
What the generator does
It sends your offer and optional audience to Claude Haiku, a fast Anthropic model, and returns CTA options. It knows only what you tell it. It cannot see your page, your pricing or your checkout, so it cannot check that an option is accurate. Pick the options that fit your stage, then edit them against your real terms.

Frequently asked questions
What makes a good call to action?
It tells the reader what they get and what happens next, in a few words, and the offer behind it matches the promise. 'Start a 7-day trial' is good if the next screen starts a 7-day trial. It is a bad CTA if the next screen is a sales form.
Should the CTA say 'free'?
Only if it is free in the way a reader would understand the word. If a trial needs a card, say so next to the button, or use wording like 'Start your trial' with a line that mentions the card. A reader who feels misled at the next step leaves, and some complain.
How many CTAs should one page have?
One main action, repeated where it makes sense, plus at most a softer option for readers who are not ready. Several competing actions of equal weight make the reader choose between them, and many choose none.
Does the generator know my pricing and terms?
Only what you type in the offer field. If you do not mention that a card is required or that the trial ends after a set time, the options cannot reflect it, and they may say 'free' when that is not the full picture. Check every option against your real terms.
Can I use the options as they are?
Use them as a starting point. A fast model writes them from a sentence or two of description. Edit the one you like so it matches your terms and your voice, and test it if you have the traffic.
What happens to what I enter?
Your offer and audience go to our server and to Anthropic's Claude, a fast model, which writes the options. We count how many times the tool runs each day and never save what you enter; an identical request may be answered from memory for up to five minutes. There is a daily usage limit so the tool can stay free without a signup.
