A Simple Approval Workflow for AI Content

AI content should not move straight from prompt to publish.

It needs an approval workflow that is fast enough to support volume and strict enough to protect the brand.

The Five Checkpoints

Use five checkpoints:

1. Brief approval: Is this the right topic and intent? 2. Source approval: Does the system have enough facts and context? 3. Draft review: Is the article useful, accurate, and specific? 4. SEO review: Are title, description, links, schema, and headings clean? 5. Publish approval: Is this safe to send live today?

This keeps review focused.

What Not to Review Manually

Humans should not spend most of their time fixing spacing, headings, or basic formatting.

Those checks should be automated. Human review should focus on judgment, risk, claims, and whether the page deserves to exist.

The Bottom Line

The best workflow is not slow. It is clear.

Give AI the production work. Give humans the decisions that actually require context.
