Editing Content Drafts
Use Averi's Editor to freely shape your draft before publishing.
Averi's Editor is your draft workspace — freely shape content before publishing.
Averi drafts are generated and structured to be fully optimized for search and answer engines. Refrain from editing too much to maintain optimization integrity.
What you can do in the Editor
You can shape your draft freely, including:
- Add, rewrite, or remove body text (except cited sources on your first draft)
- Apply bold, italic, underline, and highlight
- Create bullet lists and numbered lists
- Insert links
- Insert images (upload your own or pick from Pexels)
- Insert tables and edit rows/columns
- Insert emoji
- Edit SEO metadata
- Generate suggested internal links
- Mark the draft as finalized when it's ready
How to edit your draft
Write and edit freely
Click anywhere in the draft and start typing. You can edit or delete most content as needed.
Use formatting tools
From the toolbar, you can format text with bold, italic, underline, highlight, bullet lists, and numbered lists.
Add links
Use the link button in the toolbar to add a URL to selected text.
Averi will also Suggest Internal Links — click the button on the top left of the editor to suggest and highlight internal links. Review the links highlighted in green and accept or reject them.
To suggest internal links, Averi first needs to fully analyze your sitemap, which can take a few minutes. Once the sitemap review is complete, return to the editor and click Suggest Internal Links again.
Add images
Use the image/media button, then choose:
- Upload your own image
- Stock Image from Pexels to insert a commercial-use stock photo
- URL insert to paste an image URL
Add a table
Use the table button to insert a table. You can then add/remove rows, add/remove columns, merge/split cells, or delete the table.
Add emoji
Use the emoji picker in the toolbar to insert emoji inline.
Cited sources on your first draft
When Averi generates a research-backed draft, it includes cited sources — external references that support claims in the article, plus a Sources section listing those links at the end of the draft.
On your first draft (the initial version Averi delivers to the Editing column), those cited sources are locked:
- You cannot edit a cited source (for example, change its URL or link text).
- You cannot delete a cited source from the body or from the Sources section.
This keeps research citations intact for credibility and E-E-A-T while you refine everything else. You can still rewrite surrounding copy, add your own examples, insert images, and adjust formatting.
If you need different references before generating, add guidance on the outline so Averi can incorporate the right sources up front.
Metadata (SEO details)
Use the Metadata button in the editor controls to open SEO fields. You can:
- Generate metadata with Averi AI
- Edit and save the meta description, URL slug, and read time
- Review keywords
Marking content as finalized
When your draft is ready:
- Click Mark Completed
- Averi moves it to Finalized
- From Finalized, it's ready for your publishing flow
