Draft and save long-form content to Google Docs

Read a content brief, write a blog post draft, and save it to Google Docs automatically

Draft and save long-form content to Google Docs

Overview

Getting from brief to first draft is the slowest part of content production. This template writes the draft for you based on your brief, then saves it to the right folder, so you can jump straight to editing and refining.

How it works

  • Finds and reads the content brief from your specified Google Doc
  • Writes a 1,000-word blog post following the structure, tone, and keyword from the brief
  • Only includes sections explicitly called out in the brief
  • Creates a new Google Doc in your drafts folder with the post title
  • Saves the full draft to that doc

Who this is for

Content marketers and writers who want first drafts produced and saved to the right place without manual formatting or file management.

Suggested prompt

Find the content brief in my Google Doc titled [1. Brief doc name], read its full contents, then write a 1,000-word blog post draft following the structure, tone guidelines, and target keyword listed in the brief. Only include sections explicitly called out in the brief. When the draft is ready, create a new Google Doc in my [2. Drafts folder name] folder titled "[3. Post title] - Draft" and save the full post there.
