Creating Content
Asky generates long-form content engineered to be cited by AI search engines, not just to read well. You guide a short setup, then Asky writes the draft for you and saves it to your Content Library.
Starting a Workflow
Click New Content in the Content Library and choose a content type, or start from a Citation Gap to write against a specific opportunity.
Content Types
Each content type has its own structure, tuned to how AI search engines read and quote that format.
| Content Type | Best For |
|---|---|
| Article | General blog posts and thought-leadership pieces |
| How-To Guide | Step-by-step guides for completing a task |
| Listicle | ”Best X for Y” roundups and curated lists |
| Comparison | Head-to-head “Brand vs Brand” breakdowns |
| Authority Guide | Comprehensive, in-depth guides on a topic |
How the Workflow Works
The workflow walks you through a short setup. You stay in control of the inputs while Asky handles the heavy lifting.
Choose Your Topic
Pick one of your monitored topics or a content opportunity. This anchors the piece to a subject your brand actually wants to be visible for.
Confirm the Sources
Asky surfaces the pages that AI search engines have recently cited for this topic, so your piece is built around sources those engines already trust.
Set the Language and Title
Choose your output language, then pick from a set of suggested, on-brand titles.
Review the Brief
Set the article length and add any optional instructions, then Asky drafts a structured outline. Edit it until the angle and structure are right.
Add Your Brand Context
Choose which Brand Knowledge documents to bring in, so the piece sounds like you and reflects your own expertise and data.
Generate
Click Generate and Asky writes the full draft. This usually takes a few minutes.
Depending on the content type you choose, the workflow may include a few extra steps, such as building a feature comparison for a Comparison or choosing your list items for a Listicle.
While Asky writes, it grounds the piece in real, recently-cited sources, writes in your brand voice, and runs multiple quality and fact-checking passes before saving the draft. Every external link is checked against a real source, and the structure is reviewed against best practices for AI search so engines can parse and quote your content.
Additional Article Instructions
Asky already generates every article against a complete set of best practices for AI search, built from your brand profile, the knowledge documents you select, and your topic. The optional Additional article instructions field lets you layer extra guidance on top for this specific article, up to 4,000 characters.
Use it to call out anything the piece should cover, emphasize, or avoid, for example:
- “Cover our Webflow integration. Don’t mention pricing.”
- “Lead with the security angle and keep the tone practical.”
What you add carries through every stage of generation: the outline, the writer, and the quality and fact-checking passes. Anything you ask Asky to avoid is treated as a firm limit.
Have a longer document, like a case study or competitor analysis? Add it to Brand Knowledge instead. Material there is fact-checked and applied where it fits best, and your tone of voice and style are always kept.
After Generation
When the draft is ready it lands in your Content Library. From there you can edit the title, meta description, slug, and body, attach an author, and publish to a connected CMS.
