📌 Overview
Content Genius lets you define global writing instructions that apply across your AI-generated content — helping you maintain a consistent tone, style, and level of accuracy. This article explains how to access these settings and how to address content that contains factual errors.
Important: These settings live inside Content Genius. They are not connected to OTTO or any OTTO Autopilot workflow.
🗂️ Step 1 — Open Content Genius
- Log in to your Search Atlas account.
- In the left sidebar, click Content.
- Select Content Genius (also referred to as the SEO Content Assistant).
📁 Step 2 — Access Your Content Folder Settings
- In the Content Genius dashboard, locate the folder that contains the documents you want to apply global instructions to.
- Open the settings for that folder. The exact label or icon may vary depending on your account view — look for a settings or configuration option associated with the folder.
✏️ Step 3 — Add Your Global Writing Instructions
-
Inside the folder settings, locate the field for entering global writing instructions or a writing prompt.
-
Type your instructions directly into the text field. Examples of useful global instructions include:
- Tone and voice guidelines (e.g., "Write in a friendly, professional tone suitable for a B2B SaaS audience.")
- Formatting preferences (e.g., "Always use short paragraphs of no more than three sentences.")
- Accuracy requirements (e.g., "Do not include statistics unless they are widely established facts. Avoid making specific claims about dates, prices, or percentages.")
- Brand-specific terminology (e.g., "Refer to our product as 'Search Atlas', never 'SearchAtlas' or 'search atlas'.")
-
Save the instructions to apply them to new AI generations within that folder.
🔄 Step 4 — Handling Inaccurate AI-Generated Content
If Content Genius produces content with factual errors, use your global writing instructions to add guardrails. For example:
- Instruct the AI to avoid specific types of claims it tends to get wrong (e.g., statistics, dates, prices).
- Tell the AI to flag uncertainty rather than invent specifics.
- Review and manually correct any factual details before publishing.
If you are unable to locate the global writing instructions field in your account, or if the settings do not appear as expected, please reach out for direct assistance.
