Bring your own key
Paste in the API key you already pay for. Every model call runs through it, your provider bills you at cost, and we charge for the software. Nothing in between.

Give it a seed and it builds the architecture: clusters formed from live SERP overlap, scored against what competitors already cover, then sequenced into publishing waves so you know what to ship first.
Quality loop
Most tools hand you their first attempt. Kaivolabs scores every draft against an editorial rubric, rewrites the weak parts, and scores it again. Only a version that beats the previous one moves forward.
Only a version that beats the previous score moves forward.
Features
Ten specialized stages behind every piece. Each one does a job a generalist chatbot can't.
Every piece starts from real SERP data and crawled sources. The pipeline reads what actually ranks before it writes a single line.
Curated stock or generated visuals in your design system, with alt text, captions and compression handled for you.
News, RSS and YouTube monitoring turns your niche’s activity into drafts, and checks your sitemap so you never cannibalize yourself.
Titles, descriptions, slugs, internal links, key takeaways and structured data come out of the same run, all editable.
Sourced facts instead of invented ones, and a deterministic typography pass that strips the punctuation tells of AI text.
Checkpoints exactly where they matter: validate the brief, review the images, sign off the draft. The rest runs on its own.
One run
Not a draft to finish. A piece to approve.
How it works
Pick a target from your topical map or bring your own. The pipeline pulls live search data, competitor content and semantic terms.
Outline, sourced research, long-form draft, internal links, metas, key takeaways and structured data, generated end to end.
Images are sourced or generated in your style, then the draft is scored, revised and polished until it beats its own benchmark.
You get publish-ready content with clean typography and zero AI tells. Approve it at the checkpoint and it’s done.
Why Kaivolabs
Against the two things you're probably weighing it against.
| Criterion | Kaivolabs | Bundled AI writers | Freelance or agency |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you pay for compute | Your key, at cost | Tokens bundled in, markup included | Priced into the day rate |
| Choice of model | Any provider, per stage | Whatever the vendor picked | Not your call |
| Research behind a draft | Live SERP data + crawled sources | Varies, often the model alone | Real, but slow |
| Site-level planning | Topical maps, scored and sequenced | Rarely more than a keyword box | Yes, as a separate engagement |
| Quality control | Scoring loop, then your sign-off | One pass, then you re-prompt | An editor, on their schedule |
| Images | In your style, reviewed and swappable | Generic stock or none | Billed separately |
| Turnaround | Minutes, unattended | Minutes | Days to weeks |
| Cost visibility | Real spend, per piece | Credits, not dollars | An invoice |

FAQ
You paste your own Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or Mistral API key into your project. The pipeline runs every model call through your key, so your provider bills you directly at their published rates. We never resell tokens or add a markup: you pay us for the software, and them for the compute.
Because bundled pricing hides a markup, and you pay it on every single run. With your own key you see the real number, you keep any volume discount you already negotiated, and you can switch to a cheaper model the day it ships. Your data stays under your provider contract too.
Kaivolabs is a pipeline, not a prompt box. Each piece moves through dedicated stages (keyword data, research, outline, drafting, image production, quality scoring, final polish), each with its own specialized model calls and validation at every step. A chatbot gives you a draft; the pipeline gives you publish-ready content.
The pipeline is aggressive about this: sourced facts instead of invented ones, a deterministic typography pass that removes classic AI tells, and a scoring loop that rejects generic drafts. You still review everything before it ships.
One credit is one complete pipeline run: research, writing, images, quality loop and polish included. Regenerating individual images or editing metas on an existing piece doesn’t consume a new credit.
Yes. Nothing publishes without your sign-off. There are built-in review checkpoints for the brief, the images, and the final draft. You can approve in one click or request changes.
