What does 12 Content Templates check?
Choose from 12 content templates when writing. Each template has a pre-built structure optimized for its format: how-to guides have step-by-step sections, listicles have numbered items, case studies have problem/solution/results sections, comparisons have feature tables, and pillar pages have deep internal linking architecture.
Each stage feeds into the next, creating a complete content production pipeline. The Reviewer scores the final output and ensures it meets the quality gate before delivery.
