Editorial review

The draft is not done when the last paragraph appears.

SEOForge examines the complete article against its approved brief: claim support, search intent, brand rules, originality, internal links, accessibility and conversion purpose. Unresolved risk stays visible to a human editor.

Example review

A confident sentence can still be a production blocker.

The draft claimed API keys are “always less secure.” The evidence supported narrower tradeoffs, not an absolute conclusion.

Blocked: “API keys are always less secure than OAuth.”
Proposed: “OAuth adds delegated authorization and revocation controls; scoped API keys can remain appropriate for bounded server jobs.”

Evidence

Unsupported or overstated claims receive line-level findings.

Originality

Purpose and structure must add value beyond source or competitor phrasing.

Accessibility

Headings, link labels, image alternatives and reading sequence are reviewed.

Brand integrity

Terminology, tone, promises and conversion intent match approved rules.

Human decision

The named editor accepts revisions, edits further or rejects the draft. Editorial approval still does not bypass separate production approval.

Paid capacity

Review depth, article volume and model usage operate within plan limits. The workspace shows consumed capacity and stops safely at the cap.

Questions

Know the boundary before connecting production.

Is editorial review just a grammar check?+

No. It covers evidence, intent, originality, brand rules, structure, links, accessibility and conversion integrity.

Does a passing review publish the article?+

No. Editorial acceptance and production approval are separate decisions.

Can reviewers edit the draft?+

Yes. Human edits become part of the proposal and material changes can trigger targeted rechecks.

Do you use an AI-detection score?+

No single detector establishes quality or authorship. SEOForge reviews the actual evidence and content characteristics.

Can editorial review guarantee performance?+

No. It improves production quality; actual search and business outcomes are observed after publishing.
