A repeatable final check for factual accuracy, original value, readability, and publishing details.

Pollen editorial

Make approval a decision you can explain

Use this after a draft has been edited, before scheduling or publishing. Mark incomplete checks and assign follow-up work. A checked box should mean someone has inspected the relevant evidence.

  • Best for: AI-assisted and human-written articles.
  • Add specialist review for high-stakes subjects.
  • Record the version approved, not just the article title.

Make it your own.
