Instead of adjusting dozens of advanced options, it uses proven defaults to produce long-form, search-focused content with minimal setup. It removes the friction of picking models, tuning prompts, and repeating the same configuration, so you focus on topics, intent, and publishing. ## Article types and output ranges | Article type | Best for | Output | | --- | --- | --- | | Informational | Evergreen topics that need depth and clarity | 1,000–3,000 words | | Listicle | Rankings, comparisons, and quick-scan articles | 1,000–2,500 words | | Comparison / review | Affiliate content, reviews, and product comparisons | 1,500–3,000 words | | Local / service page | Local SEO pages and service descriptions | 800–2,000 words | Each type ships with structure built for its job: informational articles get strong topical coverage and search-intent alignment, listicles get clean and consistent formatting per item, comparisons get clear differentiators built for conversion, and local pages get sections that support trust and search visibility. ## From topic to article Whether your topics come from keyword research, a topical map [/features/topical-map/ →](/features/topical-map/) , or an authority audit, the workflow is the same: start with your topic, review the outline, generate the article, and publish when ready. When you want to go deeper on a specific piece, the same engine is available with full controls in Advanced Mode [/features/writing-modes/ →](/features/writing-modes/) , and you can tighten any draft in the Smart Editor [/features/smart-editor/ →](/features/smart-editor/) . ## Who it’s for - **Content creators and bloggers** — publish long-form articles quickly without configuring advanced settings. - **SEO professionals and agencies** — get consistent, well-structured drafts that align with search intent and are easy to refine or scale. - **Affiliate marketers and niche site builders** — comparison, roundup, and informational content that drives traffic and revenue. - **Business owners and local service providers** — clear, search-friendly content for blogs and service pages without hiring a team. - **Teams scaling production** — predictable quality and speed from proven defaults instead of manual setup.
