FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about Crafticle’s Sources → Curate → Drafts Editor workflow, including insights, sections, craft options, version history, and account limits. For the full step-by-step guide, see Help.

What is Crafticle for?

Crafticle helps you turn research—links, pasted text, and supported documents—into a structured article. You attach sources from the Curate workspace, pick insights, arrange them into an outline, then write or generate a draft on the Drafts Editor tab. Craft runs are saved as versioned drafts you can revisit.

What are the three workspace tabs?

Sources (step 1) is for attaching inputs and bookmarking insights for the article. Curate (step 2) is where you organize those selected insights into sections and order—your outline. Drafts Editor (step 3) is the article editor, craft options, Craft Article, and Craft history.

What can I add as a source?

From the attached sources panel in Curate you can add URLs, pasted text notes, and supported file uploads such as PDF, DOCX, and TXT. What is available and how many sources you can keep depend on your plan.

What are insights?

Insights are concise takeaways extracted from a source. You review them on the Sources tab, add the ones you want to your article selection, and refine order and sections on Curate before you write or craft.

What is Curate for?

Curate shows your selected insights grouped into sections with titles—an outline you can edit. You can reorder insights, move or split sections, and add more workspace insights into a section from the section header without switching back to Sources.

What is the difference between Sources, Curate, and Drafts Editor?

Sources is where you manage research inputs and choose which insights belong to the article. Curate is where you structure those selections into sections and order. Drafts Editor is where you edit the draft, set craft presets and options, run Craft Article, and browse Craft history.

What does “Craft Article” do?

Craft Article runs server-side generation using your selected insights (in Curate order), your current Drafts Editor options, and your outline. You can start from named presets (such as blog or deep dive) or tune individual controls—order, depth, audience, tone, structure, evidence, and more. Each run saves a craft version you can open later from Craft history. Availability and limits depend on your subscription tier.

What is Craft history?

Craft history is a per-article list of past craft runs. Each entry reflects the draft produced in that run, the generation options used, and the insights that were selected at the time. You can load a version to preview it, restore it as your working draft, add a private note, or set a quick star rating. Notes and ratings are visible only to you.

What are craft presets?

Presets are ready-made bundles of generation settings (for example a short professional post vs. a long analytical piece). Choosing a preset fills the toolbar to match; you can still adjust individual options before you run Craft Article.

Is my content sent to an AI?

Article crafting and related features use server-side generation. You should not paste secrets or highly sensitive personal data into the workspace. See our Privacy policy for how we handle data you submit.

Where is my work stored?

Signed-in users: articles, sources, insights, curate outline data, compose state, and craft versions (including notes and ratings you attach) are stored with your account on Crafticle so you can return from the dashboard. For retention and legal detail, read the Privacy and Terms pages.

Which plan includes full compose and Craft Article?

Plan limits are listed on Pricing. In general, Free and Essential focus on curating sources and insights; Pro unlocks fuller composition and craft workflows. Check the live pricing page for the current feature matrix.

How is this different from the Help page?

This FAQ gives short answers. The Help page walks through the dashboard in order—the three tabs (Sources, Curate, Drafts Editor), outline curation, Craft Article, Craft history, and how plans affect limits. Some topics appear in both on purpose.
