From a category to a finished draft, automatically

Before generating, you pick four things that shape the article. The same fields power both one-off runs and scheduled automation.

• Focus keyword (optional): type in a specific angle, e.g. "AI writing." Leave it blank and BrandOps pulls a trending topic from the news for your chosen category instead. Either way, you always get a topic.
• Category and Subcategory: pick a category first, and the subcategory list filters down to the ones that belong to it.
• Content type: the format the article is written in.
• Word count: anywhere from 200 to 2,500 words, defaulting to 1,200.
• Generate images: an optional toggle if you want AI-generated images alongside the text.

A generation returns a full package, not just a wall of text: everything you'd need to review and publish.

• A title and description, plus an SEO-ready meta title and meta description.
• The full article as Markdown, with a one-click Copy Markdown button.
• A Sources list, showing the real references the article drew from, each linked out.
• Generation typically takes under a minute: picking a topic, gathering sources, writing, and generating images if that was turned on.

Images are optional and generated separately from the text, so you're never stuck with a first draft you don't like.

• Turn on Generate images before running a generation to have images created alongside the article.
• If the article comes back with image prompts but no image yet, a Generate image button creates one on demand from that prompt.
• Every image, whether generated up front or on demand, has a Regenerate button if the result isn't right.

"Automate this" turns your current setup into a recurring schedule, so articles get generated without anyone clicking Generate manually.

• Set Articles per run (1–10) and Every (hours) (1–720). A schedule reuses the category, subcategory, content type, word count, focus keyword, and image setting you configured above it.
• Each schedule shows its cadence and, once enabled, the timestamp of its next run.
• Pause, resume, or delete a schedule at any time from the schedule list. Pausing stops future runs without losing the configuration.

Every article generated, manual or scheduled, lands in a Recent Articles history so nothing gets lost between sessions.

• Each entry shows a thumbnail (if one was generated), the title, category/subcategory, and creation date, with an "auto" tag on anything a schedule produced.
• Click any history item to reload its full draft, SEO metadata, and sources exactly as generated.
