TL;DR - Writing with prompts is a pain. It makes errors, hallucinates, and delivers mechanical content people can tell is AI slop. AI humanizes were created to treat your AI slop condition, but never deliver a cure.
The cure for AI slop is finally here. I built a tool that takes your best ideas to build a better brief. It runs through a complex multi agent writing system that humanizes from the input all the way through the draft creation and shows you the receipts. No more prompting. Side effects of prolonged use may include better writing, happy clients, more subscribers, and free up money spent on AI tools no longer needed.
There are nearly a million searches a month by people looking for AI humanizer tools to help take what they created with ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini to make it sound less like AI. By now people can spot AI writing tells quickly. Some of the signs were single paragraph sections with a heading above each explaining what it was trying to say.
Cringeworthy paragraphs starting with scene setting phrases like “in a world where…” or “in this modern era of…” Or the repetitive framing, overuse of lazy structures, and the annoying rhetorical reversal. You know it when you see the it’s not X, it’s Y framing.
AI killed the emdash for me, so I only use it ironically like a subtle middle finger to the machines.
It appears that many AI users are starting to recognize that a single prompt, however complex just can’t cut it. The chat box that tells you how wonderful you are and that every idea you have is amazing. AI chat bots makes stuff up, as if all those time it told you how smart you are were not a dead giveaway. It just wants to be your friend who’ll share mushrooms with you.
These are sociopathic AI systems that want to please you while feeding your junk that you’ll have to go back and keep fixing. The co-dependent cycle never ends, especially when you are paying for the subscription.
Even with the advanced intelligence of the frontier models, it felt like each time used ChatGPT to write another article I was starting from scratch. Even with creating projects with detailed instructions, it often conveniently remembered to forget or ignore the directions it was given.
As someone who’s published over 2,000 articles this year alone, I know the pain of AI assisted writing all too well.
I have been doing SEO for enterprise brands for 25 years. I spent the last 13 years doing online reputation management for high profile individuals and brands.
I’m not an eager college student who believes they deserve to have millions of dollars handed to them over and idea that’s not rooted in real experience. I never learned how to code. I never even went to college.
I’m a 5O year old Gen-Xer who’s been married for 22 years and has 5 kids. I spent years working for large companies before launching my own crisis comms and reputation management firm a few years ago.
Clients who are referred to me expect to pay a lot for my services.
Most of my time is spent fixing serious and complex problems for people who make headlines because of their wealth or brand exposure draws competitive attention.
I’m a fixer of sorts that is hired to make things disappear off the internet and/or help curate a search result so people only see how amazing that brand or person is. I find myself working for people who have a reputation to defend.
I also do political work and publish a substack with a decent subscriber base that exposes extremism and bad behavior. Some of the more shady political characters can be litigious and used lawfare and death threats to try and silence me. I defeated the SLAPP style lawsuits and stood my ground.
It was stressful and expensive.
It taught me to be vigilant and pristine in my writing, don’t pull punches, and ensure my content was legally bulletproof. Eventually my critics learned not to mess with me as my work attracted a larger statewide audience and caused the extremists to start losing elections.
Enough backstory, you get it. I work for living, write impactful content, and AI helped fill my skill gaps to amplify my output.
I started using ChatGPT in early 2023 and have tried every prompting trick I could find to try and help me write better quality content that included research, fact checking and was written for humans to read. It was not until earlier this year I discovered I needed to use a multi agent writing system, but none existed for what I needed.
I decided to push myself and dig into Claude to build something that might work for what I needed. The results were so much better than arguing with ChatGPT for hours and it apologizing for lazy mode slipping in the middle of a 4,500 word article.
You see, in order to get Claude or ChatGPT to produce a draft that doesn’t suck, you need different agents to help do the work. One single agent, the chat bot itself, struggles to do it all.
You need a variation of the following agents:
- a content planner to create an outline and give agents instructions to help each suck less in succession
- a research agent to find the sources and background information
- a fact checker to make sure the AI is not inventing facts
- a drafting agent to write the first draft (AI slop)
- a editor to make that draft suck less
- a humanizer agent to make it not suck so bad
- a red team / devils advocate agent to tell your other agents why they suck and fix it
Plus, a half dozen more agents for specialized writing tasks to screen for defamation risk, defensibility of claims, and enhanced quality. Ideas that stemmed from my earlier lawfare adventures.
After it runs through each you get a draft that is actually decent — even if one or two of these slip in.
It may not pass GPTzero, Pangram or any other anti-AI detector racing to beat each other in this crowded but profitable market, but it will look and sound more like a person wrote it.
The AI detectors have serious issues as they look for pattern detection. Unfortunately most humans are predictable and use patterns in their own non-AI writing. These tools will often flag what you swear you wrote by hand as AI, even if you never touched ChatGPT. (Don’t worry, I believe you.)
I wondered if what I had built could be improved to not just sound more human, but sound like you wrote it.
I thought about a real writing process, one where you take information you need to draft something, decide who will write it, what you want written, where will it be published, and who the audience is. I also wanted it to look at your previous writing to make sure it aligns with how you write (back to patterns, but ones you use without thinking about it).
And that’s the product I just finished building.
Yes, under the hood it’s very complex. It has a well researched and structured content type matrix that determines what agents need to be used based on the type of content you want to create.
It’s built around these question about the content you want to draft:
Does it need to be optimized for SEO/AEO?
Do you need real research and citations?
What is the output format and styling (press release, AP style, social media post, etc)?
How long do you want the article?
How high of quality do you need it?
Which AI model is best for the type of content you want to draft?
What writing voice do you want to use, yours or your client’s?
Instead of starting with a blank prompt box, I wanted something would help pull the idea out of your head by asking a few simple questions. It’s designed to feel intuitive.
You pick the basic details and say where the content will go. Then after clicking on your options you say plainly what you want: “an article about why AI slop sucks with ideas for making it not suck”…
You pick who is going to write it: a AI ghostwriter trained as a expert in a specialized field, a writer trained on your own writing or one trained on your client’s writing (with authorization).
Then it goes to work.
It starts to research, and asks a clarification question. It shows you the research it found and asks if this is what you were thinking, or to keep researching further with simple direction.
Once the research is approved with a single click, it then runs through 8-12 more steps internally, edits, fact checks, humanizes, and write the content in the voice you chose.
When it’s done processing, it delivers a fully written draft with incredible accuracy. And if you want to improve it further, there is a button to run an additional editor pass which tells you want can be done to strengthen the claims made and suggest further optimization for SEO/AEO/GEO to push the scores it displays higher.
Did I forget to mention it has a built in scoring system for human writing detection, SEO, AEO, legal risk, trust, and citations?
Basically it does it all, and I keep finding new ways to use and improve it.
It took me three months of planning and stress testing my plans before I fired up Claude code to help me engineer this beast.
I am proud of the result.
If you do need to make edits to the draft, it saves those in a file to instruct the writer for that project to help it improve the next draft you request.
If you give it the published URL or give it the RSS feed to watch, it will look at the published version, compare it to the approved draft and inform your ghostwriter where it sucked so it will do better next time.
The built in feedback loop is also used to track search rankings and AI visibility so it improves its optimization based on real world results.
I wanted to make sure it gets better each time you use it. That personalizes the tool so you’ll want to keep paying me the monthly subscription — Now you know why I told you I have a lot of kids to feed earlier.
If you stuck around this far, feel free to ask me anything about this process, my pending patent, what next in the process, and when I’m ever going to be able to spend time with my family again after becoming a AI zombie running on very little sleep.
The life of a solo AI SaaS founder ain’t easy, but I love every minute of it.
