Core Features & Use Cases

  • Three-stage workflow: Context Gathering, Refinement & Structure, and Reader Testing to align context, structure, and reader comprehension.
  • Active coaching: Acts as an active guide, prompting clarifying questions and iterative drafting.
  • Artifact-driven collaboration: Uses staged drafting and optional reader testing to validate the document with a fresh reader.
