Quickstart

From zero to a published article in five minutes.

You're going to do five things, in order. Total time: about five minutes once your CMS is open in another tab.

1. Create your account

Go to /signup and create an account with email and password, or click Sign up with Google. With email, confirm your address from the message we send you before signing in. An organization is created for you automatically and you are its owner.

2. Connect a site

Open Sites and click Connect a site. Pick your CMS (WordPress, Sanity, Framer, Webflow, Shopify, Ghost, Wix or HubSpot), enter the site name, the site URL and the output language, then follow the per-CMS steps shown next to the credential fields:

After you click Connect site, Quibo crawls a handful of high-signal pages of your site (home, about, product pages and a few blog posts, up to ten) to learn your brand voice, and reads your CMS to discover post fields and authors. This usually takes 30 to 60 seconds. The site status goes from Analyzing brand to Ready, and the site page updates on its own.

Quibo verifies the credentials against your CMS before saving anything: if the check fails, nothing is stored and the error is shown in the wizard so you can fix the values and try again. Once the site is Ready, pick the Default author in the brand profile when your CMS provides one. Test connection on the site page stays available to re-check them later.

3. Discover keywords

Go to Keywords and click + Discover keywords. Pick the site, enter a seed (for example content marketing) and set the cap for this run (5 to 60, default 30). Discovery usually takes a few minutes, since one run expands the seed several times, looks up search volumes and takes a SERP snapshot for every surviving keyword. The table refreshes on its own and shows candidates ranked by opportunity (high volume, low difficulty wins), with gems and long-tail picks flagged.

You can also click + Add manual any time to add keywords by hand, one per line. Manual additions do not count against your monthly discovery quota.

4. Generate this month's batch

Tick the keywords you want articles for and click Accept (or use the check icon on a row). Then click Plan this month: the dialog shows how many articles remain in your balance and lets you split them across your sites. Stay within the balance and click Generate N articles. Batches smaller than five articles are only allowed when fewer than five remain in your balance.

Quibo researches, writes and optimises each article in the background. Drafts appear on the Articles board as they are ready. A full month is usually ready to review within about 90 minutes, and we email you when the batch is ready.

5. Schedule and ship

Open Articles. Articles in Ready can be edited, scheduled or published from their page: pick a date and time under Schedule publish, or click Publish now. Scheduled and published articles show up in the Calendar, where you can drag them to another day. On Agency, Business and lifetime tier 4 and up, Batch approve in the calendar schedules every ready article on a fixed cadence in one go.

Once an article is Scheduled, Quibo publishes it to your CMS within a few minutes of the scheduled time (the publisher runs every five minutes). The status changes to Published and the article is live on your site.

info

Used keywords are marked used and never appear in discovery again; at the start of the next cycle they move to archived, where you can pick them again if you want another article on them. Keywords you didn't pick stay in your library for next month.
