Free Brainstorming Ideas Generator

Brainstorming Ideas Generator for when your brain goes blank

You know that moment when you need ideas right now and your mind gives you… nothing. Or worse, it gives you the same 3 predictable concepts you already tried last week.

This Brainstorming Ideas Generator is built for that exact situation. Type a topic or problem, choose a tone, set how many ideas you want, and you get a full spread of directions you can actually use. Not just vague prompts. Real angles, hooks, formats, names, solutions, and variations you can pick up and run with.

And yes, if you want volume, you can literally Get 50 Brainstorming Ideas (Not 5) in one go.

What kind of ideas does it generate?

Not all “ideas” are equal. A good brainstorm gives you options that feel different from each other, not the same thought rewritten 12 times.

Here are the types of categories you can expect to see in the output:

Content angles: beginner guides, deep dives, lists, contrarian takes, myths vs facts

Hooks and headlines: scroll stopping openers, curiosity hooks, bold claims (tone controlled)

Solutions and frameworks: how to solve the problem, step by step approaches, checklists

Audience specific spins: beginner vs advanced, B2B vs creator, niche variations

Campaign concepts: themes, promos, challenges, series ideas, timely angles

Names and positioning: title ideas for products, workshops, courses, newsletters, features

If you give it more context, it gets way better. Which brings us to the most important part.

How to get better brainstorming results (the simple prompt formula)

If you only type “marketing ideas” you will get marketing ideas. But they will be kinda generic. The tool shines when you add a few constraints.

Use this format in the topic box:

Topic + audience + goal + channel + constraint

Examples you can paste and tweak:

“Meal prep for busy parents. Audience: working moms. Goal: grow newsletter. Channel: Instagram Reels. Constraint: under 30 seconds.”

“AI note taking app. Audience: college students. Goal: new user signups. Channel: TikTok and YouTube Shorts. Constraint: funny but credible.”

“Cybersecurity for small businesses. Audience: non technical founders. Goal: sell audit service. Channel: LinkedIn posts. Constraint: professional tone, no fear mongering.”

Even adding just audience + channel usually doubles the quality.

Use it for content, products, and everything in between

This tool is useful when you need output that can turn into real work quickly. Like:

Content ideas that turn into a series

Generate 30 ideas, then cluster them into 4 themes. Now you have a month of posts without forcing it.

Product and feature ideation

Instead of “new features for X,” prompt it like: “features that reduce churn for power users” or “features that help onboarding in the first 5 minutes.” More actionable.

Campaign brainstorms that don’t feel recycled

Ask for themes, offers, and hook variations in the same run. Then shortlist the ones that match your brand vibe.

Naming and positioning help

Use the tone setting to swing from clean and professional to playful and bold. You can get name ideas, taglines, and positioning angles in one batch.

If you’re building a full workflow, pair this with other tools on WritingTools.ai to turn your best ideas into outlines, drafts, and publish ready pieces.

A quick workflow that actually works

If you want a repeatable process, do this:

Generate 30 to 50 ideas to get range and avoid settling early

Pick the top 5 based on effort vs impact

Regenerate on the winners with tighter constraints (audience, format, length, CTA)

Turn the best 1 to 2 into next steps like an outline, script, or content calendar

Brainstorming is only useful if it leads somewhere. The goal is momentum.
