## Post body

I've been building a tool for bloggers who are tired of AI outlines
that look like a topic and a shrug.

[OutlineAI](https://outlineai.dev/r/blogging) generates:
- 1 H1 + 1 meta description
- 5-8 H2 sections (each with word count and 2-5 H3s)
- 5-8 FAQs
- 1 primary keyword + 5-12 secondary keywords
- 3-6 internal link suggestions (titles of related posts you should
  plan to link to)
- Exactly 3 title alternatives

For any of you writing about **health, finance, legal, or anything
else where wrong info could hurt a reader** — every YMYL outline comes
with a non-dismissible fact-check warning at the top of the page and
in the Markdown export. The warning is part of the document. You
can't copy a YMYL outline and silently paste it.

I'm not going to pretend the tool is magic. What it does is
**enforce a strict schema** so the model can't hand you a 4-bullet
outline and call it a plan. The schema is enforced on a retry-once
basis — if the LLM misses a required field, the request is retried
with a list of the specific failures. If it misses twice, you get a
clean 502 instead of a half-baked outline.

The [5 published samples are public here](https://outlineai.dev/r/samples)
— including the [first-time home buyer's checklist](https://outlineai.dev/r/home-buyer)
and the [sustainable sleep schedule](https://outlineai.dev/r/sleep),
which are both YMYL and both show the fact-check warning in context.

**Free tier is 3 outlines per day**, no signup. If you generate one
and want a 6-month Pro code to do a real review, comment below with
the topic and I'll send it.

Things I'm actively trying to learn:

- Does the schema actually produce outlines that are *useful* to
  working bloggers, or is it just enforced for enforcement's sake?
- Is the YMYL warning helpful or paternalistic?
- For affiliate bloggers specifically — does the internal-link-
  suggestions field save you time, or is it noise?

if you want the implementation details.
