Content Research Writer

A collaborative writing partner for long-form pieces — it researches, adds real citations, strengthens your hook, and gives section-by-section feedback while keeping your voice intact.

How to use it
Work with it iteratively: start with an outline, ask it to research a point and add citations (inline, numbered, or footnote style — your pick), have it sharpen the hook with a few options, then drop in each section for feedback before moving on. It keeps a running references list and does a full flow-and-clarity pass at the end. Unlike Content Engine (one-shot batch), this is for one important piece you want to get exactly right.
How to invoke / keep it on
Say “help me write…”, “research this and add citations,” or “review this section.” Give it your draft and your voice notes (or your teach-your-voice profile) so feedback stays in your style.
