What it matches

Publications accepting contributed articles, op-eds, and guest posts on the topics you describe — each opening with its submission path and requirements.

When it looks

Weekly for an active byline program; monthly to keep a pipeline warm.

Where results go

Email or Slack — per author, per client, or to a content team channel.

How Workflows work

Tell Featured what to monitor, when to look, and where to send results.

  1. 01

    Name your themes

    The topics you can write about with authority — per author, if you're running a program. That's the standing brief.

  2. 02

    Featured watches the openings

    Publications accepting contributed articles, op-eds, and guest posts on your themes surface on schedule, each with its submission path.

  3. 03

    Outline, draft, submit

    From any opening, Featured's chat outlines and drafts in the author's voice, then helps pitch the editor. The blank page stops being the bottleneck.

Why run bylines as a workflow

Byline programs die of logistics — finding outlets, tracking windows, starting drafts. The workflow eats the logistics.

  • Windows

    Openings, when they open

    Submission windows and contributor programs surface as they appear — not when someone remembers to re-research the list.

  • Per author

    Programs, not one-offs

    Run themes per executive or per client, and let the workflow suggest which author fits each opening. That's a byline program on rails.

  • GEO fuel

    Every byline compounds

    Contributed articles in credible outlets are core sources for AI answers. A steady byline cadence is AI visibility, scheduled.

Bylined Articles workflow — frequently asked questions

What does the Bylined Articles workflow do?+−

It watches for publications accepting bylined articles, op-eds, and guest posts on your topics and delivers new openings — with submission details — to Slack or email on your cadence. It's the discovery half of a byline program, automated.

What counts as an opening?+−

Publications with active contributed-content programs, op-ed pages taking submissions on your themes, guest post opportunities on real sites, and contributor programs at larger outlets. Each arrives labeled with what it is and how to submit — no reverse-engineering an editor's inbox.

Can it help write the articles?+−

Yes — from any opening, Featured's chat proposes angles, outlines the piece, and drafts in the author's voice for review. Configure the workflow to include an outline for the best opening per delivery and the writing starts itself.

Can I run it for multiple authors?+−

That's the program setup: themes per author — or per client, for agencies — with the workflow suggesting which author fits each opening. It's how a comms team keeps three executives publishing without a spreadsheet of submission windows.

How often should it run?+−

Weekly sustains an active program — most authors can move on one or two good openings a week. Monthly keeps a pipeline warm between pushes. Seasonal spikes (predictions season, year-end lists) justify a temporary weekly cadence.

Do I need a paid plan?+−

No — workflows are available on every plan, including Free. Runs pause when the daily usage cap is hit; a Free workspace's first run may pause on the 10¢ cap. Try the underlying search free in chat to see what openings exist for your topics today.

Why do bylines matter for AI visibility?+−

AI assistants cite exactly this content: expert articles in credible publications, with named authors and clear claims. A byline program run on cadence steadily builds the source layer AI answers draw from — measurable in a GEO audit as it compounds.
