Content · Pipeline

Every article, from title approval to live URL.

Guru tracks every article from the moment you approve a title to the day it goes live. No spreadsheet handoffs, no manual updates, no wondering what stage something is at.

What's included

Full articles written and published every sprint.

Guru produces the actual content, not just the plan. Standard articles run 1,500 to 2,500 words. Long-form guides run 3,000 words and up. Every piece goes through review and approval before it publishes.

Sprint Board

Auto-populated from approved titles. Articles move through Queued, Writing, Review, and Live columns. Clients see the same board, no access to your internal team notes.

Standard Articles

Full-length articles written to target a specific keyword, 1,500 to 2,500 words. Each one covers the right topics and entities, follows the structure that performs in both Google and AI search, and goes through approval before it publishes.

Approval Workflow

Every content decision moves through To Review, Approved, and Implemented. Each transition is logged with a timestamp and user. Clients can have Viewer access; approvers can be internal or client-side.

Long-Form Guides

In-depth cornerstone articles of 3,000 words and up, targeting competitive broad keywords that build topical authority. These go deeper than standard articles, covering a subject in full and structured specifically for AI search best practices.

Live Client Portal

Each sprint generates a shareable link. Clients see a live bar chart of progress - articles in Queued, Writing, Review, Live - that updates in real time as your team ships work. No account needed to view.

Content Refresh Queue

Existing pages that need updating are prioritized by traffic drop, ranking slip, and missing entities. Guru rewrites the sections that need improvement and queues the updated page for your approval before the live version changes.

Content types

Guru produces the format that fits the query.

Every approved title is assigned a visible content-type label before writing starts. That label controls the outline, evidence requirements, answer shape, QA checklist, and how the finished piece is positioned for Google and AI search.

Comparison

"Best X for Y" queries

Built for buyers comparing options, categories, or vendors. The article leads with a quick verdict, then supports it with a structured table and clear tradeoffs.

AI extraction pattern

Tables, ranked picks, and verdicts make the answer easy to quote in search summaries and LLM responses.

How-To

"How do I X?" queries

Built for task completion. The article opens with the outcome, then walks the reader through numbered steps, tools, decisions, and expected results.

AI extraction pattern

Numbered steps map cleanly to instructions, featured snippets, and assistant-style procedural answers.

Explainer

"What is X?" queries

Built for definition and understanding. Guru gives the short definition first, then adds context, examples, related terms, and when it matters.

AI extraction pattern

Definitions, TL;DRs, and concise examples create quotable passages for direct answer surfaces.

FAQ

Question clusters

Built for high-intent clusters where buyers ask adjacent questions before converting. Each question gets a direct answer and optional expansion.

AI extraction pattern

Q&A pairs map one-to-one to prompt shapes, voice answers, and people-also-ask style results.

Problem-Solution

"X not working" queries

Built for troubleshooting searches. The page identifies likely causes, rules them in or out, and gives the fastest fix before deeper context.

AI extraction pattern

Cause and fix is the answer pattern people expect, and the pattern AI assistants naturally summarize.

Research

Data and statistics

Built for data-backed authority. Guru gathers current numbers, explains what they mean, and structures statistics so they can be cited cleanly.

AI extraction pattern

Quotable numbers, source notes, and clear takeaways earn citations from articles, reports, and answer engines.

Production SOPs

Each content type has its own writing system.

Guru does not send every keyword through the same generic article template. The label determines how the brief is assembled, how the draft is generated, and what must be true before the article can move to review.

How Guru chooses the format

Before writing starts, Guru classifies the approved title by search intent, SERP patterns, AI-answer shape, and conversion goal. The selected label is stored on the content item and shown in the pipeline title.

  • Keyword intent decides the article type before an outline is generated.
  • The type controls headings, evidence, internal links, schema opportunities, and QA checks.
  • Editors can override the label before production if the angle changes.
  • The finished draft keeps the label so clients know what kind of asset they are reviewing.
