AI SEO content workflow for controlled writing
The AI SEO content workflow in Copycat keeps the article tied to search intent from the first brief to the final review.
Workflow modules
Use AI to help with the work while a human still controls the angle, sources, claims and links.
Keyword and intent notes
Start with the search query, audience and reason the page should exist.
Article brief
Cover the reader’s job, likely objections, required sections, source needs and link role.
Draft support
Use AI to draft sections from the brief, then check whether each section answers a real question.
Review checklist
Review intent, claims, thin sections, weak first answers, duplicate points and missing links.
Publishing handoff
Prepare the page title, meta description, slug, links and next content queue before publishing.
What this prevents
- Publishing an article that answers the wrong query.
- Adding sources after the draft has already invented certainty.
- Leaving new pages without internal links.
- Treating AI output as final copy.
- Chasing broad keywords before the site has support content.
Start with one article
The easiest way to test the workflow is to run the checklist against one AI-assisted article. If the article cannot pass the checklist, revise it before publishing.
