Content
Use Content to turn a gap in AI visibility into an article you can publish, then follow what happens to that page. The area connects article planning, project knowledge, writing briefs, recommendations, publication URLs, indexing checks, and citation signals. It also gives you a library of the work associated with the selected project.
The main Content page is organized into My Content, Topical Maps, and Templates. My Content contains the overview chart, setup checklist, recommendations, and article library. Topical Maps helps plan related topics as a pillar and clusters. Templates currently shows an unavailable state; ready-made templates are not available yet.
Content and Prompt Intelligence both use prompts, but they answer different questions. Prompt Intelligence is where you organize monitored prompts and inspect how the brand appears in AI answers for them. Content uses a prompt as the target for an article brief, then follows that content through publication, indexing, and citations. Use Prompt Intelligence to evaluate prompt and answer visibility; use Content to decide what to create or update and track a page connected to that work.
The active project selector determines which articles, prompts, recommendations, setup status, and maps Content shows. Switch projects when you need to work with another brand or client.
The Content visibility loop
Section titled “The Content visibility loop”The four-step loop at the top of My Content explains how the work is intended to progress:
- Generate an article from a visibility gap and a target prompt. PromptEye can prepare a brief from monitored prompts, related query variants, project knowledge, and writing preferences.
- Publish the article on your website, then save its live URL in PromptEye. Publishing to your website is manual in the current flow; the Content action records the URL and associates it with the article.
- Index the public URL by requesting indexing. PromptEye submits the request and later checks whether Google has indexed the page. A submitted request is not the same as an indexed page.
- Track citations to see whether AI answers cite the live page. Citation and visibility signals can help explain what to work on next.
The target prompt stays linked to the article through the workflow. That gives later results a specific question to evaluate. A link between an article and prompt is a measurement relationship; it does not prove the article caused a change in visibility or citations.
The loop is a progress guide, not a control panel for every step. It is shown while there are incomplete stages for the selected project and can be dismissed for that project in the current browser. The diagram may mark a stage done when the project has at least one article that meets the stage’s condition; it does not mean every article has completed that stage. Use the recommendations and library for item-specific work. The Publish and Request indexing buttons can open actions when an eligible item exists. To create an article, use New article; use the library to inspect citations.
The main Content views
Section titled “The main Content views”Overview chart
Section titled “Overview chart”Written, published & indexed over time summarizes article activity in the selected date range. It plots the number of items written, published, and indexed. The date-range control above the page changes this chart only; it does not filter the recommendations or library. The display groups short ranges by day and longer ranges by month. The Index rate is the share of items written in that range that are indexed; when the range has no written items, it shows a dash because there is no denominator to compare.
This chart is a count of content workflow events, not a traffic report and not a ranking report. It does not show how many people read an article. Use GA4 when you want to understand visitor engagement after someone arrives, and use the library’s citation column when you want to see whether AI answers cite a live piece.
Setup checklist
Section titled “Setup checklist”The checklist points out project data sources that can make recommendations more useful: Google Search Console, server logs, a sitemap, and Google Analytics 4. It is optional guidance. Content creation is still available without completing every item, but a recommendation cannot use signals that the project has not supplied.
Search Console contributes Google queries and page performance, helping surface pages with many impressions and weak clicks. Server logs show which AI crawlers fetch your pages, which can reveal crawl gaps. A sitemap gives PromptEye a broader list of pages to compare with crawl coverage. GA4 can help measure what visitors do after arriving on content and compare visibility with engagement. These sources answer different questions, so their figures do not represent the same events.
Google setup has two parts: connect an account and select the property to bind to the current project. If an account is already connected, the checklist opens the property selector. Server log setup takes you to Traffic’s overview; sitemap setup takes you to the sitemap and SEO crawler area. Read Content integrations for what each connection contributes, how to finish setup, and what the checklist changes.
You can dismiss an incomplete checklist item. The dismissal is remembered in this browser for the current project; it hides that reminder and does not disconnect a service or erase its data. A completed integration is not offered for dismissal. If you only have read access, you can see setup status, but an owner or editor needs to complete project setup.
Recommendations
Section titled “Recommendations”Recommendations put possible next actions in one list and order them by a priority from 1 to 5. The priority is an estimate of relative expected impact. It is a way to sort work, not a promised result or financial forecast.
Each row identifies what action is suggested, which tracked prompt it is linked to, and Why now—the signal that triggered the suggestion. That signal may be low visibility, an unfinished draft, an indexing delay, a crawl gap, a missing neighboring topic, or aging content. A fan-out recommendation can also point back to the brief that surfaced an idea for another article. Review Recommendations and query fan-out for the meanings of recommendation types and reasons.
Depending on its type and the access you have, an action can open the article wizard, publish URL form, indexing request, an existing article for optimization, or a sponsored placement offer. Dismiss removes a recommendation from the open list; it does not delete an article or mark the recommendation’s goal complete.
Library
Section titled “Library”The Library brings together briefs and articles. Use status filters for Brief, Draft, Ready, Published, and Tracked; use the indexing filter to narrow by Indexed, Submitted, or Not indexed; or search titles and linked prompts. The table can be sorted, paged, and exported. Export includes the rows currently matching the table’s filters and search.
Each row shows the title, target prompt, workflow status, publication information, indexing status, and the number of AI answers that cite the live piece. The library summary counts how many live pieces have citations. Open a brief to review it and continue article generation; open an article to edit it or view its source information. A live URL can be opened in a new tab or updated in PromptEye, depending on your project permissions and the article’s status.
For field-by-field guidance and the difference between the article’s workflow status and indexing status, see Library, publishing, indexing, and citations.
Limits and access
Section titled “Limits and access”Your plan includes a number of new articles and a number of optimized existing articles for each billing period. Saving a brief does not count; an article counts when it is generated. The allowance renews at the start of each billing period. If it is used up, the app tells you the plan limit was reached. Some plans do not include article generation.
People with read-only access to a project can browse its Content but cannot create briefs or articles. Everyone with access to the project sees the whole library, but only the person who created a brief or article can generate from it or change it. Briefs and articles cannot be deleted from the library.
Choose a route through Content
Section titled “Choose a route through Content”Use New article when you are ready to turn a prompt or a topic into a plan. Start from a monitored prompt if you want the work tied to an existing measurement target. Start from your own title if you have a topic but need a prompt suggestion. Choose Optimize existing content when you already have a page or draft to improve.
Use Topical Maps when you need to plan a group of related subjects before choosing one article. A map supplies a pillar page and topic clusters; a cluster can be turned into a draft title or a monitored prompt. See Topical Maps and Templates.
If you are trying to understand why a recommendation appeared, read its Why now label and check the linked prompt before taking action. If you are deciding whether an article made a difference, compare the linked prompt’s later visibility and citations with the article’s index status. Consider other changes and the selected period too: the Content screen connects signals for investigation but does not isolate cause and effect.
Common questions
Section titled “Common questions”Do I have to connect integrations before I can create content?
Section titled “Do I have to connect integrations before I can create content?”No. The checklist helps bring additional search, crawl, and visitor signals into the project. You can start the article workflow without completing every setup item. Recommendations may be less informed by a data source that has not been connected.
Does Content publish to my CMS?
Section titled “Does Content publish to my CMS?”No. In the current flow, you publish using your normal website or CMS process and then save the public URL in PromptEye. The URL lets PromptEye associate indexing and citation signals with the content item.
Does an indexed page automatically get cited?
Section titled “Does an indexed page automatically get cited?”No. Indexing means Google has been recorded as having the page in its index. Citation tracking is a separate step: it checks whether AI answers cite the page. A page can be indexed without appearing as a citation.
Why do some controls or recommendations disappear?
Section titled “Why do some controls or recommendations disappear?”Some actions need write access or an eligible article state. A completed setup item is hidden from the incomplete checklist, dismissed reminders are hidden in the current browser for that project, and the visibility loop disappears once its stage conditions are complete.
