I built a structured AI content pipeline for a company that needed a more reliable way to move from brief → research → outline → draft → QA without depending on manual copy-paste between LLM chat tabs.
The workflow problem was familiar:
The brief changes a little.
The voice shifts.
The outline starts drifting.
The draft loses pieces of the research.
QA turns into manually hunting for whatever broke along the way.
So I built a five-stage pipeline:
Brief Interpreter → Research → Outline → Draft → QA
Each stage takes JSON in, performs one defined job, and sends JSON forward.
Voice and style live in config. Prompts are separated from execution. The final output lands in result.json.
This case study walks through the build, the stack, and the reusable pattern behind it: a content ops pipeline designed to support different brand voices, content categories, and workflows without rebuilding the system every time requirements change.
Built solo for a real company use case, with Streamlit for the UI, CLI support for batch runs, and structured JSON handoffs holding the whole thing together.
Good work
Thank you!

What if you could practice your hardest client call before it actually happens?
I built a skeptical startup founder on Character.ai: Series A pending, burned by freelancers before, allergic to vague answers, and used him to stress-test a real discovery call.
He pushed on ROI. On timeline. On rate. On revision policy.
Slide through to see how it went.
This is genuinely useful. Not as a toy, as a rehearsal tool. You find the gaps in your pitch before a real client does.
What it's good at: stays in character under pressure, generates objections you hadn't thought of, forces you to articulate your value out loud.
Where it breaks: gets agreeable too fast if you don't push back, no memory across sessions.
