FAQ

Is AI content detectable?

Detectors are unreliable; quality and compliance matter more than “AI vs human.”

Will AI content be penalized?

Low-quality content is; high-quality, experience-backed content isn’t—regardless of tooling.

Do you add author schema?

Yes—author + org + FAQ schema, with update cadence and sources.

How fast can we publish?

2–3x faster with our AI + human workflow and approvals.
