Content & Copyright Guidelines

Vibe.fyi delivers high-impact, passive digital signage content — designed for Glance Media environments like screensavers, office displays, and meeting room signage. Messages appear without interaction, so content must stand out, deliver value fast, and stay brand-safe.

Set your content goal before you create and ask yourself...
  1. What do I want the audience to know, feel, or do (passively)?
  2. Can this be understood in under 6 seconds?

What Is Glance Media?

Glance Media is content designed to be understood at a glance — no clicks, sound, or interactivity required. It appears in rotation across Vibe-powered screens and reaches audiences passively.

To make it effective:

  • Keep text short and purposeful
  • Calls to action should be written like "Visit SharePoint for full details" or "Scan the QR Code". Not like “click here” or “read more”
  • Use strong headlines
  • Focus on one message

Writing Style & Message Design

Whether your tone is formal or playful, here are our best-practice tips for content:

Write for the moment:

  • Focus on key takeaways, not full stories
  • Use concise headlines that clearly introduce the topic
  • Limit body text to one or two short lines
  • Avoid jargon or filler language
  • Use active voice and present tense where possible

Edit for clarity:

  • Read it aloud — or backward — to test readability
  • Remove unnecessary words
  • Use formatting (bold, underline, highlight) sparingly for emphasis

Keep it visual:

  • Use eye-catching images, shapes, or icons to support the message
  • Ensure good contrast for readability on screen
  • If your message needs more than 6 seconds to understand, simplify or split it

Keep It Fresh, Keep It Mixed

Avoid repetition by rotating message types. Mix promotional messages with helpful tips, staff stories, news bites, values, and even humour.
Consider adapting content from:
  • Executive blogs
  • Internal newsletters
  • Workplace chat threads
  • Support articles
  • Posters, presentations, or podcasts
  • Intranet or staff portals

Remember, audiences tune out static content. Keep your feed visually varied and informative.

Any text, image, or media not created in-house must meet your company’s copyright and usage standards.

Before using third-party content:

  • Get permission or check licensing terms
  • Credit the original creator where possible
  • Only use royalty-free or licensed images
