Knowledge Base

Write long-form content in the Writing Studio

Outline, research, draft, set a style guide, and run multi-pass editing for books, newsletters, and more.

The Writing Studio is a full writing environment built on top of your knowledge base.

How to open it

The Writing Studio is still being polished, so it is not in the sidebar yet. You can use it now by typing the address directly: go to kb.noliai.com/writing-studio and start a new project. Bookmark it while it's hidden.

Pick what you're writing

Choose a format to get started, including books, newsletters, blog posts, copy, SOPs, reports, social media posts, and freeform. Each is set up for the kind of writing you're doing, and shorter formats skip the stages they don't need.

Work through the stages

A full-length project walks through eight phases, shown in the phase tracker at the top:

  1. Foundation: your thesis, your reader, and where the piece sits against everything else out there.
  2. Research: gather supporting material, drawing on your knowledge base.
  3. Outline: shape the chapter-level structure before you write a word.
  4. Chapter Outlines: break each chapter down and attach the sources it needs.
  5. Architecture: set the style guide and map the narrative arc.
  6. Drafting: write the chapters section by section.
  7. Editing: run revision passes, each focused on a different aspect of quality, including cross-chapter consistency and a fact-check.
  8. Assembly: introduction, conclusion, bibliography, and a final read.

Talk it through and preview it

Once you have written more than about 100 words, click Preview your manuscript on the project page to read the assembled draft end to end, as a reader would, rather than chapter by chapter.

Every project also has a Talk page, a chat about this specific piece that knows your project brief, your outline, and how far along each chapter is. There is no button for it yet: open your project, then add /talk to the end of the address in your browser.

Keep your voice consistent

Set a style guide for the project so the writing matches your tone, vocabulary, and preferences. It keeps long pieces consistent from start to finish and across drafts.

Why it's grounded

Because the Studio pulls from the documents in your knowledge base, your drafts can reference your own notes, research, and customer insights, so the content sounds like you and not like generic filler. Your Competitor Intel profiles are not documents, so copy anything you want it to use into a Quick Note first.
