Fact Guard + Quality

Put explicit checks between AI-assisted editing and publishing.

PressAI combines Fact Guard, the Editorial Quality Gate and Publishing Readiness so unsupported factual changes, missing editorial requirements and incomplete publishing conditions can be surfaced before execution.

Three different checks

Facts, editorial quality and publishability are not the same problem.

PressAI keeps them separate so a piece of content can be factually consistent but still fail editorial requirements, or be editorially ready while still missing publishing prerequisites such as media, SEO information or authority to publish.

Fact Guard

Protect important factual context and surface unsupported or conflicting changes that need human attention.

Editorial Quality Gate

Evaluate configured editorial requirements before the item advances further through the workflow.

Publishing Readiness

Collect the decisions and prerequisites needed before a draft, schedule or publish action is executed.

Review sequence

A guardrail is useful only when the editor can act on it.

Compare

Review the article against its evidence, source context and durable fact decisions.

Flag

Surface unsupported changes, conflicts, missing information or failed editorial conditions.

Resolve

Let an authorized editor keep, correct or explicitly decide how the issue should be handled.

Release

Allow publishing actions only after the required readiness state and permission checks are satisfied.

Human-in-the-loop by design

Critical disagreements are surfaced, not auto-resolved.

When evidence conflicts, especially around dates, amounts, percentages, scores or other material values, the safer behavior is to show the conflict to the editor. PressAI is designed to preserve that review point rather than hide uncertainty behind fluent text.

  • Durable fact decisions can remain attached to later revisions.
  • Quality conditions are explicit instead of implied.
  • Readiness can include editorial, SEO, media and publishing requirements.
  • Final publishing still depends on the user’s permissions and operating mode.

What this protects against

Common failure modes of ungoverned AI publishing.

Confident factual drift

A rewrite can sound fluent while changing a number, date, name or relationship that the source evidence did not support.

Premature publishing

A polished article can still be missing required review, media, SEO or permission conditions.

Lost editorial decisions

Without durable decisions, the same resolved issue may reappear in later revisions or stronger-source updates.

Make “ready to publish” a state you can inspect.

Use factual, editorial and publishing checks before the final action.
