The Challenge
Automating content creation without sacrificing quality was the driver for this project. We wanted to build a tool that assists writers by generating high-quality drafts based on minimal input.
Approach
We utilized Google's Genkit to orchestrate the AI flows. We designed a multi-step generation process: first generating ideas, then selecting an idea to generate an outline, and finally expanding the outline into a full post. This allowed for human-in-the-loop verification at each step.
Roadblocks & Solutions
Ensuring the AI output was consistently structured and relevant was difficult. We used Zod to define strict schemas for the AI responses, forcing the model to output structured JSON that could be reliable parsed and rendered by the UI.
The Outcome
The tool helps writers produce initial drafts 5x faster. It has been used to generate over 100 articles, with users reporting that the structured workflow helps them overcome writer's block.
