Route new content through AI review and human approval

New submissions are drafted and reviewed by AI, then held for your approval by email before being saved.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken.

The problem it solves

Reviewing and approving new content or requests eats up your day, especially when everything lands in your inbox with no structure. You need a first pass done automatically, then a quick way to approve or reject and keep a clean record.

Who it fits

Teams that process a steady stream of written content and want an AI first draft with human final approval.

How it works

  1. A new request or piece of content comes into the system
  2. AI drafts a summary and synthesis of the content
  3. A second AI pass reviews the draft for quality
  4. You receive an email to approve or reject the content
  5. Approved content is saved to a database, with an optional team notification
What you get

Content drafts ready for your final sign-off

New submissions get an AI-written summary and quality pass, then land in your inbox for a quick approval before anything is saved.

What you get

An approved piece of content saved to a database, with a record of the review and approval.

What you need

An OpenAI API account, an email account for approvals, and a database account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
