Lock Brand Brain before you generate

Why calibration and confirmed facts gate draft generation — and how that protects voice and trust.
Empty-brand generation produces generic copy with confident wrong details. PostKeel locks generation until brand calibration passes and you have enough confirmed facts to ground a draft.
The setup order that works
- Interview the product once — positioning, voice, markets.
- Confirm facts on Proof until the queue is usable.
- Check that sample drafts sound like you.
- Only then generate Today’s work.
Voice sharpens when you edit. Evidence stays explicit. The first week feels slower than dumping a URL into a generic writer — and the drafts stay something you can defend.
If you are starting fresh, finish Brand setup, clear open asks on Proof, then open Today and generate. Create and the editor are for review and copy — not for inventing the strategy.
