Step 5: Review and finalize
Carefully review your outline to ensure that your key points are covered and the structure aligns with your message. Add collaborator insights by clicking on the section with the insight and selecting an option:
Paraphrase quote: Restates the original idea in different words, making it easier to fit within the context or flow of the content while maintaining the original meaning.
Direct quote: Uses the exact wording from the source, preserving the authenticity of the speaker's voice and adding credibility.
Block quote: Highlights a longer quote by setting it apart from the main text, typically used for impactful statements or in-depth insights.
Blended quote: Combines the source's words with the writer's own, integrating part of the original quote into the sentence to maintain a smooth, conversational tone.
Step 6: Generate your content
Once you’ve finalized your outline, click Generate in the top-right corner. Wordbrew will automatically generate your content based on your outline.
Tips for getting the most out of outline mode
