Set your automation level and preferences
Choose how much your marketing system does on its own and where it pauses for your review.
Your marketing system can work fully on its own, or pause for your input at key stages. You decide the balance in Settings → Automation. The tab saves as you change it, there is no Save button.
Choose an automation level
- Autopilot, skips review entirely. Articles go straight to Approved, and if you have turned on auto-publish for your blog they go live without you seeing them first.
- Standard, the same stages as Autopilot, except the article stops at review and waits for you before it can be published.
- Collaborative, review at every stage: the content brief, the draft, fact-check results, and the humanized version.
- Custom, choose exactly which stages pause for your review.
The difference between Standard and Autopilot is the last step only. They run identical checkpoints along the way.
Set checkpoints
Checkpoints are the stages where work pauses and waits for you. Pick Custom to see the individual checkpoints. They are hidden on the other three levels. A checkpoint that is off lets that stage advance automatically.
Set article length
Article length is a choice of four presets, not a number you type:
- Short, 1,000 to 2,000 words.
- Standard, 2,500 to 4,000 words.
- Long, 4,000 to 6,000 words.
- Deep Dive, 6,000 to 10,000 words.
There is also a Let the system decide switch if you would rather it picked per article.
Other defaults live on other tabs
This tab is about automation only. Publishing frequency is on Settings → Cadence, which channels get content is on Settings → Platforms, and the writing model is on Settings → Models.
Change these any time, your choices apply to new work going forward.
