OPF Tone

Technical

Lead with the question or claim, then walk through the mechanism and the numbers. Use exact terminology; assume the audience can handle and prefers it. Diagrams, tables, and benchmarks are first-class.

Schema

Voice Cues

  1. 1

    State the claim, then the mechanism, then the evidence.

  2. 2

    Use exact terminology — don't soften technical terms for general readability.

  3. 3

    Quote benchmarks with conditions (cold/warm, p50/p95/p99, dataset, hardware).

  4. 4

    Prefer diagrams and tables over prose paragraphs for structural information.

Avoid

  1. 1

    Vague claims ('much faster', 'better', 'easier').

  2. 2

    Marketing framing without supporting data.

  3. 3

    Glossing over caveats and tradeoffs.

  4. 4

    Casual register that obscures precision.

Sample Phrases

“p95 inference latency is 38ms on a single A100, down from 312ms on the prior runtime.”
“We replaced the streaming serializer with a batched protobuf path; throughput rose 4.2× under load.”
“The result holds for context windows up to 32k tokens; beyond that, see appendix B.”
