Can I sign up for MAEL myself?
Can I sign up for MAEL myself?
No. Every account is created by a workspace administrator — there’s no
self-service sign-up page. See Login.
Do I need to know SEO to use this?
Do I need to know SEO to use this?
No prior SEO expertise is required to trigger a workflow and read its
results — this guide explains what every score and status means. You
will get more value out of the results the more you understand your
own website and audience, same as with any tool.
Will MAEL publish content to my website automatically?
Will MAEL publish content to my website automatically?
Never without your approval. Even the full content pipeline, which can
run start to finish on its own, always stops at a mandatory human
approval step before anything reaches your live site. See
Take Action.
What's the difference between a 'workspace' and a 'domain'?
What's the difference between a 'workspace' and a 'domain'?
A workspace (called a “client” in the dashboard) is your whole
account — it can contain multiple domains (websites). See
Initial Setup.
Where do I find my domain's ID?
Where do I find my domain's ID?
This is currently the one piece of information the dashboard doesn’t
show you directly — see
Start Here → Step 4
for how to get it.
How much does a workflow cost?
How much does a workflow cost?
It varies by workflow and by how much content it produces — each run
shows its own real-time Cost in USD once it starts. There’s no
fixed price list in the dashboard; ask your administrator about your
workspace’s spend limits.
How long does a workflow take?
How long does a workflow take?
A read-only workflow like
technical-audit typically finishes in a
few minutes. full-content-pipeline (research + writing + review +
approval-wait) usually takes longer and depends on how quickly a human
approves it — the workflow itself pauses indefinitely at the approval
step, so “how long” partly depends on you.Can I edit an article's text directly in the dashboard?
Can I edit an article's text directly in the dashboard?
Not from the article detail view shown in this guide — it’s an
inspector (scores, search preview, metadata, the live link once
published), not a text editor. To change an article’s content, use
the
content-refresh workflow, or edit it directly in your CMS.Why can't I see the Clients page?
Why can't I see the Clients page?
It’s restricted to platform administrators (
super_admin). If you
need something changed there (a new domain, a plan change), ask your
administrator.What happens if I reject an article?
What happens if I reject an article?
The workflow stops on that path — MAEL does not automatically retry
or auto-correct it. A rejected article needs a person to decide the
next step (revise and resubmit, or abandon it). Always leave a comment
explaining why. See Take Action.
Is there a mobile app?
Is there a mobile app?
No — the dashboard is a web application, usable in a mobile browser,
but there’s no dedicated mobile app.
Can I connect WordPress or Ahrefs myself?
Can I connect WordPress or Ahrefs myself?
Not from the dashboard yet — those two integrations are currently set
up by an administrator via a direct API call, unlike Google Search
Console and GA4, which have a working Connect button on the
Settings page. See
Initial Setup → Connecting integrations.
