#Start an article now

  1. Open Content under Search & AI in the sidebar.
  2. Type your subject into the box that says Optional: a subject you want covered. Leave it empty to let the engine pick the topic.
  3. Press Write one more now. The button reads Queueing for a moment.
  4. The message says Queued. It shows here as a draft in about 15 minutes. A new card appears, headed Asked for: and your subject.

#What happens next

The piece moves through Queued, Researching and Writing. The topic is checked against real search demand before a word is written, and the tab updates itself every minute while it works.

When it reaches Draft, read it, then approve, edit or dismiss it like any other piece.

#Make it sound like you

Every article is written from what you enter in Settings: What your business does, Where you work, Who your customers are, How you sound and Searches you want to win. Fill those in and press Save before you ask for pieces.

TipName the service and the place in your subject, for example drain cleaning in your town, so the piece targets a search your customers make.

#Questions

Does an extra article count against my monthly number?

Write one more now adds a piece on top of the ones queued on the 1st.

Can I ask for an article without a subject?

Yes. Leave the box empty and the engine picks the topic.

It has been more than 15 minutes. Is something wrong?

Check the card's status. If it says Stopped, press Try again. If it is still Researching or Writing, the tab updates itself when it is done.
