Out of scope

The Editor does not automatically publish content to your website, social media, or email platforms.

It does not guarantee flawless automated fact-checking; owner review of primary sources and final approval is always required.

It does not rewrite drafts entirely from scratch if they fail the brief—it edits, restructures, and flags issues for your writers.

FAQ

Can it write original content for me?

No. This role focuses strictly on editing, structuring, and fact-checking existing drafts or AI-generated copy. If you need original drafting, hand the task to a Content Marketer.

How does it handle unverified claims?

If a claim lacks a primary source, the Editor will flag it with a Source required label and ask you to provide the original document or verified customer proof before clearing the text.

Will it fix my passive voice and long sentences?

Yes. The role enforces practical typography and readability rules, shortening sentences, converting passive voice to active, and removing excessive corporate jargon.

Does it check for legal compliance?

The role can compare text against the official policy pages you cite, but it does not invent legal statutes or replace a qualified lawyer. You must provide the exact legal references for it to check against.
