Publishing drafts, not live posts

· The InkApex team

The easiest thing to automate is the last step. Once an article exists, pushing it live is one API call, and a tool that does it for you can honestly say it runs your blog without you.

InkApex does not do that. Every article it produces arrives in your CMS as a draft, and someone on your team decides whether it goes live.

Why a draft

Your site carries your name. A sourced, reviewed article is far more likely to be right than an unsourced one, but "far more likely" is not a standard you want a machine to apply to your own domain without a check. A minute of reading before publishing is cheap compared with a wrong claim under your brand.

Drafts also give you a place to adjust. Change the title, cut a paragraph, add a line only you could know. The engine's work is a starting point you own.

How publishing works

The engine posts each finished article to a webhook you set: the title, body, meta description and internal links, as JSON. Most CMSs can receive that and create a draft; a short script does it for the rest. A WordPress integration that creates the draft for you is next, and the changelog will say when it ships.

What we will not add

A setting that publishes without approval. If you want it, a line in your webhook handler can do it, and the decision stays yours.
