The Review Gate: Editorial Quality Control at 70/100
Every score in the product comes from one canonical model. These are the concepts that model exposes.

What is the Content Score?
Content Score is a 0–100 measure of how well a draft matches the traditional Google ranking surface for a target keyword. It weights seven signals: term frequency, entity coverage, heading structure, word count, readability, internal links, and GEO signals. No single signal determines the score: each weight is a fixed editorial setting, shown beside the signal's score in the Signal Breakdown.
GEO Score
GEO Score is a 0–100 measure of how ready a draft is for AI retrieval, citation, and answer extraction. It weights five signals: Entity Authority, Factual Density, Answer-First Formatting, Source Credibility, and Freshness. GEO Score estimates how well a draft's text can be lifted into an AI answer, and it scores the whole draft at once rather than passage by passage.
Review Gate
The Review Gate is a server-enforced checkpoint for every Article. Publishing is blocked unless the Content Score reaches 70/100, the GEO Score reaches 70/100, and no signal is critical (below 40); either score below 50/100 is a hard block. Writers receive an ExplainScore breakdown — the ranked list of signals that failed and the recommended action for each.
Action Rail
The Action Rail lists the three fixes with the most score headroom (a signal's weight times its distance to 100) and explains which signal each action affects, so editors fix the highest-impact issues first instead of guessing.
