Guide Writer — reviewing AI-generated outlines

How to review and improve AI outlines before triggering article generation

What is a Guide?

A Guide is a detailed outline for an article: title, H2/H3 sections, estimated word count, and internal link suggestions. The AI uses this structure to write consistent, well-organized articles.

The flow

  1. Keyword approved β†’ Guide queue
  2. Guide Writer AI analyzes the keyword + brand voice β†’ generates outline
  3. Guide status: PendingReview β†’ you review
  4. Approve β†’ article writing begins

Reviewing a guide

Check for:

  • Title: Does it include the target keyword? Is it compelling?
  • Structure: Are the sections logical? Is the flow right for the reader?
  • Estimated length: Right for the content type (how-to vs. overview vs. deep dive)?
  • Internal links: Are the suggested link targets relevant?

Editing outlines

You can edit the outline before approving β€” the AI will write the article based on your edited version. This is the highest-leverage edit you can make.

Click Edit, modify the sections, then Save and Approve.

Regenerating

Not happy with the outline? Click Regenerate and the AI will produce a new version. Each regeneration counts against your monthly guide quota.

Tips

  • A good outline = a good article. Spend 2 minutes on the outline to save 20 minutes editing the article.
  • Add specific sub-points to H2s if you know what the section should cover.
  • Remove sections that aren't relevant to your audience.
