What problem does it solve?

Content teams often wrestle with turning vague briefs into actionable, SEO-aligned plans. They struggle to gather keywords, assess competitors, and assemble a cohesive outline and distribution strategy without a repeatable process.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Topic intake and keyword research: capture topic, audience, intent, and business context; identify primary and secondary keywords and related questions.
• Template recommendation: load and apply one of 12 content templates to shape the brief (how-to-guide, listicle, case-study, etc.) based on topic and intent.
• Competitive analysis: examine top ranking pages to identify length, structure, visuals, gaps, and freshness; inform strategic positioning.
• Statistics research: compile 8–12 credible data points with sources to anchor the brief and support charts or TL;DR summaries.
• Output generation: produce a comprehensive brief including title ideas, meta description, TL;DR, information-gain opportunities, content outline, and internal linking plan.
• Distribution planning: outline channel-specific tactics for multi-channel distribution and amplification.
• Internal linking architecture: plan links from and to existing pages to strengthen topic clusters and SEO.
