Currently content scales dynamically based on the number of products you add, but the more products you add, the less text gets generated, so a page feels more natural. Obviously a Roundup with 40 products on one page all with an in depth analysis doesn’t feel natural. A better template name for this output might be:
“Highlights” - Round up 10-50 products and capture only a few highlight for each, followed by a comparison table
“Deep Dive” - Round up 4-10 products and do a deep analysis of each, followed by a comparison table.
“Battle Card” - Actionable information on two products to counter competitors' claims and highlight advantages.
“Review” - An in depth analysis of a single product.

The ability to duplicate a default template & customize it (for re-use… not just for that roundup) would be great! Being able to choose what product details are displayed (& where in the layout) could be tweaked for better match with existing site designs without as much cleanup after the roundup is written.

CastMagic is a good example of how users can create their own prompts to add defined content or to make the AI use the content in different ways.

Will take a look, although there are so many of these AI writers that just output content in 100 different ways, and we’re trying to keep it focused on long form research with a flexibility around content presentation for that. Open prompts can leads to all different types of scenarios that take content out of focus.

Thanks. I know it’s a balance between adding features and mucking up the original premise. A huge challenge with AI is finding ways to make it look cookie-cutter. If I read one more article that starts, “let’s dive in…”

Here is the approach we took as a big step forward. We just released a new and more dynamic way to generate a Roundup. You guide AI on exactly what you want it to write about or focus on before it generates your content.
Here is a video:

We do plan to provide a YouTube video embed as a replacement for an image in a Roundup. So you can decide whether to use the image, or a video. We’ll query YouTube for videos relating to the product and then you can select which video to use. I’ll post this as a separate item so it doesn’t get lost here.

Wow. We are very close to being able to use veo 3 to quickly create a video review using all the points from the roundup. It’s going to be hard to keep up.
