Getting started9 steps~10 min read
Welcome to Rext AI: we're glad to have you here. Rext AI researches a keyword, writes the article in your brand's voice, checks it and publishes it to WordPress. These steps take you from sign-up to your first published article.
  1. Step 01

    Create your account

    Visit the Rext AI signup page and enter your details:

    • Full name
    • Email
    • Password
    • Confirm password

    Click Create account. You're in. Or sign up with Google or GitHub instead.

    Create your account in Rext AI: with Google or GitHub, or with your full name, email, a password of at least 8 characters and the password again, then Create account.
  2. Step 02

    Set up your workspace

    After you sign up, create your first workspace.

    What is a workspace?

    A workspace holds one brand or client: its website, brand voice, author personas, keywords and articles.

    How to set it up:

    • Enter the Workspace name and your Website
    • Click Create workspace

    What happens next?

    Rext AI reads your website to draft the workspace's brand voice, author personas and competitors.

    Once the analysis is complete:

    • The workspace opens on Settings › Brand voice with the draft
    • Change anything that doesn't sound like your brand
    • The writer follows this voice in every article

    Your workspace is now ready.

    Create workspace in Rext AI: a workspace for one website, with its name and its website, which Rext AI reads to draft the brand voice, personas and competitors.
  3. Step 03

    Search a keyword

    • In the sidebar, click Generate
    • Enter your keyword, choose the country, and click Analyze (1 credit)
    • Or start from a keyword you analyzed before: click Use beside it under Recent keywords, or open All keywords

    Rext AI reads the search results for your keyword and shows its difficulty, search intent and monthly volume, with related keywords to choose from.

    Step 1 in Rext AI, Search Keyword: the keyword box with its country and Analyze, and the recent keywords, each with its searches, difficulty and intent and Use.
  4. Step 04

    Select a keyword

    Keep the keyword you searched or pick a related one, then click Continue with this keyword (1 credit). Changing the keyword later costs 1 credit.

    Step 2 in Rext AI, Select Keyword, for “content brief template”: 210 monthly searches, difficulty Easy (2/100), informational search intent, its backlinks and referring domains, its top search results and other keywords to analyze.
  5. Step 05

    Select a content type

    Rext AI lists the content types that fit the search intent and recommends one, with a word range for each. Choose the type and continue.

    Step 3 in Rext AI, Select a content type: How-to guide marked Recommended with why it fits, then Explainer and Blog, each with its word range.
  6. Step 06

    Select a title

    Rext AI writes five titles that keep your keyphrase and recommends one.

    • Pick a title and edit it if you like: the outline and the article use it word for word
    • Or describe what you're looking for and regenerate the five
    Step 4 in Rext AI, Select a title: titles for “content brief template”, each checked for the keyword, its length and how clearly it reads, one recommended; on a wide screen, the top search results beside them.
  7. Step 07

    Review and approve the outline

    Rext AI drafts the outline: the sections with their key points, and the brief beside them.

    • Set the tone, the audience and the target words
    • Check the focus keyphrase and the keywords to include
    • Keep the suggested author persona or pick another
    • Include a mention of your brand, or leave it out

    Not right? Click Regenerate for a new outline (1 credit). When it is, click Approve and generate.

    Step 5 in Rext AI, Content Outline: the outline's steps and tools, each to reorder, open or edit; on a wide screen, the brief beside them: the tone, the audience, the target words and the keywords to include, then Approve and generate.
  8. Step 08

    Review your article

    The run goes through its stages: Research, Draft, Style pass and Checks. The side panel lists each web search as it runs, and you can leave the page: the run continues, and you are told when the article is ready.

    The finished article opens with its Checklist:

    • the on-page score and its band: Strong, Good, Fair or Needs work
    • readability and keyphrase density
    • Trust, as a percentage
    • the checks and the issues to fix
    • Claims to verify: any claim without a source

    Read the draft, check the claims, and edit what you need.

    The Checklist of a finished article in Rext AI, “How to start a podcast: A step-by-step beginner's guide”: an on-page score of 100, “Strong”, readability, keyphrase density, Trust 66% and every check passed; on a wide screen, the article and its structure beside it.
  9. Step 09

    Publish to WordPress

    Connect your WordPress site once, under Setup › Integrations, with the Rext AI plugin. Then, on a finished article:

    • Open the publish menu above the Checklist
    • Choose Publish, Save as Draft, Submit for Review or Schedule for Later
    • Confirm

    No copy-pasting. No manual uploading.

    The article goes straight to WordPress, credited to its author persona. For any other system, copy it as HTML, Markdown or plain text.

    Connect WordPress in Rext AI: install the Rext AI plugin, then enter your site's address, the plugin's API key and its endpoint, and Connect site.

Common questions

Do I need to edit the content?
Read every draft before you publish. Rext AI stops at the outline for your approval, keeps the source behind each fact and scores the finished article, so most of your editing is checking the facts and adding what only you know.
Will this content rank on Google?
Nobody can promise rankings. Rext AI researches what already ranks for your keyword, writes to the search intent, adds E-E-A-T signals and checks the on-page SEO before you publish. Your site's authority and the competition decide the rest.
Can AI detectors identify this content?
We make no promise either way: Rext AI computes no detection score. The style pass is one editing pass for rhythm and readability, and Google judges content by the value it adds, not by how it was made.
How many articles can I create?
As many as your credits pay for: an article takes 15 credits, whatever its length. The free trial's 60 credits make 4 articles, and Starter's 400 credits a month make 26. The pricing page lists the other plans.
Can I use this for client work?
Yes. Give each client a workspace of its own, with its own brand voice, personas and people, and use roles to decide who may publish. The Agency plan has unlimited workspaces.
