What it does
The writer every newsroom wishes it had, on every shift.
Not a chatbot. A producer's tool, built on the rules that win Emmys and keep corrections off the air.
Catches the traps
Ounces vs. grams. Southeast vs. southwest. Member vs. chair. "Today" vs. last night. The errors spellcheck never sees.
Finds the nugget
The "wait, what?!" fact viewers will repeat. Three opening lines, each built on a different hook.
Whole-show review
Paste the rundown. Get one list, most urgent first: must fix, should fix, polish. Approve only what you want.
Teases that deliver
Every tease checked against the story it promises. No "details," no "live in studio," no mismatched numbers.
Timed to your anchors
Read time at each anchor's real pace, and within 15% of your original length unless you say otherwise.
