Service Marketing Automation
The content pipeline behind our daily blog, built for you.
Research, drafting, fact-checking, a person's review and publishing, wired into one pipeline. We run ours every day across our own sites and will build yours the same way.

The flagged claim is why the editor gate exists. A pipeline that cannot stop is not a pipeline you can publish from.
Why this matters
Most "AI content pipelines" produce content no one would publish.
The first version is exciting. The tenth is generic. By the hundredth, your blog reads like every other AI-generated blog. We build pipelines that keep your editorial voice, ground every claim in your real sources, and put humans in the loop where judgment matters. The result is content you actually want to publish, at a cadence your team could not hit by hand.
In flight today
Six stages. Articles moving through.
The pipeline view our editors check first thing each morning. Every article passes through draft, edit, image, audit, ready, then live. Each stage has SLA. Watch one article promote forward when you scroll into the section.

What we build
A pipeline your editors will actually use.
Research grounded in your real sources. Drafts in your house style. Fact-check before review. Human approval at the right step. Publishing wired to your CMS. Analytics closing the loop.
01
Research that uses your real sources
The pipeline pulls from your existing knowledge base, brand voice docs, customer research, and approved external sources. The AI does not invent context, it composes from the context you already have.
Drafts feel on-brand from version one.
02
Drafts in your house style
Style guide encoded as a Claude skill. Tone, sentence rhythm, banned phrases, paragraph structure all enforced. Editors edit voice nuances, not basic style.
Drafts arrive close enough that editing is editing.
03
Fact-check before human review
Every claim cross-checked against the source documents. Hallucinated stats flagged before they hit your editor. Sources cited inline so verification is one click.
Fact-check failures caught before publish, not after.
04
Human approval where it matters
No content publishes without an editor approval step. The pipeline does not replace editorial judgment, it just removes the time you spend on draft generation and formatting.
Editorial team retains full control of voice.
05
WordPress, Ghost, MDX, all supported
Publishing adapter ships content to wherever you publish. WordPress via REST, Ghost via API, static MDX via PR. Featured images, internal links, schema, all wired.
No manual copy-paste between tools.
06
Analytics loop closes the cycle
Published post performance tracked in GA4 and Search Console. Underperformers flagged. Best-performing patterns reused in future drafts. The pipeline gets smarter monthly.
Top-quartile post rate climbs measurably each quarter.
Per post
model spend logged per published post, research through to metadata
Every call in the pipeline is costed and attributed, so the bill reads as a line per post instead of one number at the end of the month.
Proof we run this ourselves
The pipeline ships our blog every day.
We use this exact pipeline to publish on wbcomdesigns.com, vapvarun.com, attowp.com, and three other properties. Every workflow we ship to a customer is one we already run for ourselves.

A pipeline is judged on the days it does not run cleanly. The held run is the one worth looking at.
Process
How a content pipeline project runs.
01
Discovery
Two weeks. We capture your style guide as a Claude skill, ingest your source documents, design the workflow stages, and lock the editorial approval rules.
Fixed scope, fixed price.
02
Build
Four to six weeks. Pipeline ships in stages: research first, then draft, then fact-check, then publish. Editors review real output by week three. Iterate weekly.
First real published post by week six.
03
Launch + tune
Two weeks. Production rollout, weekly tuning sessions with your editorial lead, analytics dashboards live. Handoff includes the maintenance runbook.
Your team owns the pipeline at the end.
What it costs
Pipeline pricing follows the number of stages and destinations.
A draft generator for one site and a researched, fact-checked, human-approved pipeline publishing to several are the same sentence and very different projects. Here is what moves the number.
What moves the number
- How many sources Pulling from your own docs and data is straightforward. Reconciling several sources of truth is the work.
- How many stages Draft and publish is a short pipeline. Research, draft, fact-check, human approval and analytics feedback is a system.
- Where it publishes One WordPress site is simple. Several sites, or several platforms, multiply the integration surface rather than the effort.
- How much human review Full automation is rarely the right answer. Where a person approves, that step has to be fast enough that they actually do it.
- What volume A pipeline running weekly and one running daily across several properties have different reliability requirements.
Small, well-defined work is usually better handled as an hourly block than scoped as a project, and we will say so rather than inflate it into one.
Rough idea to delivery
- You send the details What you want built, roughly, plus budget range and timing. The form asks for all of it
- Same day, Monday to Friday We read it and reply. Nothing is scheduled before we know what it is about
- Then the call Free discovery, booked once there is enough on the table to make it worth your hour
- Within 48 hours of the call A written fixed-price quote you approve before anything starts

Common questions
Frequently asked
-
Will this replace our content team?
No, and we will warn you if you ask us to. The pipeline replaces the work editors should not be doing (formatting, image processing, internal link insertion, schema, scheduling). Editors keep doing what only editors can do (voice, judgment, the part the AI cannot fake). Done right, your team ships more without burning out.
-
How long does a content pipeline take to build?
Six to ten weeks for a full pipeline (idea queue, research, draft, fact-check, human review, publish, analytics). Two weeks discovery to capture your style guide and source documents, four to six weeks build, two weeks launch and tuning.
-
Can it ship to multiple sites?
Yes. We have built pipelines that ship to 5+ properties with per-site style guides, per-site source documents, and per-site approval rules. The pipeline scales horizontally without rebuilding the workflow.
-
What about SEO?
SEO is built into the pipeline. Keyword research informs the brief. Internal linking is mandatory and validated against your sitemap (no hallucinated URLs). Schema markup is generated. Featured images include alt text. Yoast or Rank Math fields are populated.
-
How much do AI costs run?
Production cost typically lands at $0.50 to $2 per published post, all in. Prompt caching, model routing, and source document caching keep it well below what manual generation through ChatGPT would cost.
-
What does it cost?
Pipeline work is estimated against scope rather than sold at a list price. A draft generator for one site and a fact-checked, human-approved pipeline publishing to several are very different projects. The section above sets out what moves the number.
