Growth Cortex

The shared memory every Robynn agent reads from: your brand story, facts, and voice, kept in one place and kept current.


1What it is

One memory every agent writes from.

Growth Cortex is your shared brand memory, the source of truth that Rory, Content Studio, Website Studio, and Campaign Studio all read from. In-product it reads as "Robynn's Understanding", and you edit it directly.

Most tools start each task from a blank slate, so you re-explain your brand every time. Growth Cortex holds it once: the brand story, supporting facts and Knowledge Sources, your writing styles, messaging, products, files and media, and any sub-brands. Every agent inherits it, so curate it well and the output downstream is on-brand by default. You stop correcting the same mistake in three places.


2The pieces

The brain everything else inherits.

The Understanding

Robynn's read on your company: the brand story that frames every draft, every page, every campaign.

The Facts

Supporting facts, Knowledge Sources, products, files and media: the proof the agents cite instead of guessing.

The Voice

Writing styles, messaging, and sub-brands: how each piece should sound, and for which audience.

Where to start

Treat it like a brand operating system, not a settings page. If output anywhere feels off-brand, the fix usually lives here: correct the memory once and every agent inherits it.


3Walkthrough

Set up your brand memory, and keep it honest.

A

Set it up

Before you start: have your brand basics handy: story, voice, key facts.

1
Correct the brand story

Open Robynn's Understanding and read the brand story it holds. Click Edit understanding and fix anything that's wrong before it spreads downstream.

2
Connect your sources

Under Knowledge sources, hit Browse and connect Google Drive, Notion, your website, or GitHub. The more grounded the memory, the fewer guesses agents make.

3
Set voice and messaging

Open Writing styles and Messaging to define how pieces should sound. Tone lives here, not in each individual draft.

4
Add your products

Open Products and record each one as a fact, so every agent describes it the same way in every channel.

B

Keep it current

Before you start: do this when the brand has shifted and the memory needs to catch up.

1
Review pending learnings

Click Review pending learnings and open the Agent Reflections tab. Accept, edit, or reject each proposed change. The memory only moves with your sign-off.

2
Add files and sub-brands

Open Files & media and Upload new assets, then go to Sub-brands and Add one so each audience reads from the right context.

3
Preview the memory

Hit Preview to read the full memory in one place before any agent works from it.

4
Export when you need it

Click Export PDF to take the memory outside Robynn: for a brief, a partner, or a review.

4Going deeper

Keep the memory rich, and keep it fresh.

Sub-brands

Spin up a sub-brand, a slightly different brand context, and choose it in Rory and anywhere else you work, so the right voice shows up for the right audience.

Supporting docs

Upload your own brand and design docs to support or override what Growth Cortex inferred. Your source of truth wins.

Knowledge sources

Connect Google Drive, Notion, your website, or GitHub. Robynn pulls changes from them so the memory stays current without anyone re-entering it.

Rules and guardrails

Set the rules agents must follow, what the brand will and won't do, and let Robynn propose new ones from what it learns, for you to accept, edit, or reject.

Every morning

Robynn reflects on the day's changes across your sources and surfaces them as potential rules, in your inbox or right here in Growth Cortex, so the memory only gets sharper over time.

Your brand memory is set: every agent now writes from it. Next: and hand it a task.

Field Guide

Rory

Your conversational AI CMO: the front door you delegate to in plain language, grounded in your brand.


1What it is

Hand work to a marketing chief in plain language.

"Hey, I'm Rory, your CMO." Rory is Robynn's conversational AI marketing chief: the front door you delegate to, in plain language, grounded in your brand context.

You don't fill out a form or pick a template. You describe what you want in a sentence of intent, and Rory drafts it, grounded in your Growth Cortex memory by default. The work happens in threads, and what comes out are artifacts: an article, a landing page, a social post, a newsletter, a press release, product copy, or ad creative. You steer, Rory drafts, you keep the judgment on what ships.


2The pieces

Conversation, context, artifact.

The Conversation

A thread where you give Rory a task. The history stays, so context builds instead of resetting.

The Context

Your brand, drawn from Growth Cortex by default, plus any sources you add for the task at hand.

The Artifact

The output Rory drafts: an article, social post, or any of the seven types, yours to refine and carry into the studios.

Where to start

Treat Rory like the lieutenant you brief, not the tool you configure. Hand over the intent and the sources, let Rory draft from your brand memory, and spend your attention on the call only you can make.


3Walkthrough

Brief Rory, get an artifact.

A

Brief Rory

Before you start: know what you want out: an article, a social post, the angle you're after.

1
Open a thread

Click New Thread in the left nav. This is where the task lives, and where its history will stay.

2
Confirm the brand context

Check the Brand context: Org brand selector so Rory drafts from the right memory.

3
Describe the task

Type one sentence of intent in the chat prompt, or open the guided wizard and pick an artifact type: Article, Social, Landing Page, and the rest.

4
Refine in the thread

Rory drafts an artifact; sharpen it in the conversation until it's ready to ship.

B

Ground it in your sources

Before you start: gather the docs and links that matter to this draft.

1
Add your sources

Open the Sources panel and add what matters with Upload File, Add URL, or From sources already in your memory.

2
Point Rory at them

Reference the sources so Rory drafts from facts, not guesses.

3
Let Rory draft

Rory works from those sources alongside your brand memory.

4
Keep it organized

Keep your Conversations and Artifacts tidy from the left nav so the work stays where you can find it.

4Built for a team

Rory is multiplayer by default.

Shared the moment it exists

Every thread is shared with your org the second you start it, and every artifact Rory drafts is shared too, so the whole team works from the same context. Send anyone a deep link to a chat and they land right where you are.

Private when you need it

Click into any thread or item and make it private. Shared is the default; the exception is yours to set.

Publish an artifact to the world

Share a single artifact, a landing page, say, outside Robynn. Hit Publish, choose how long the link should live, and send the URL. It exposes just that one piece, and expires when you said it would.

One workspace

Because threads and artifacts are shared by default, anyone on the team can pick up where someone else left off: no copy-paste, no re-briefing.

You briefed Rory and it brought the brand: a grounded artifact in hand. Next, take it into or to ship it.

Field Guide

Content Studio

Where your strategy stops being a deck and becomes a plan, a calendar, and the pieces you actually ship.


1What it is

Turn a point of view into a quarter of work.

Content Studio is where a message becomes a plan, a calendar, and the individual pieces, each one researched and drafted by an agent, then shaped and shipped by you.

The agents take the blank page: research, first draft, a full schedule. You keep the calls only you can make: which message to lean into, what's worth shipping, what to cut. The rest of this guide walks you through it.


2The pieces

Three layers, one source of truth.

The plan

Your intent for a window of time: the audience, the message, the channels.

The calendar

When each piece ships. Drafted from the plan, rearranged by you.

The item

The actual piece: drafted in your voice, edited by your hand, linked back to its plan.

Where to start

Start at the altitude that matches your decision. Planning a quarter? Walk the steps below. Have a brief due Thursday? Skip straight to drafting a single piece, that's step 5.


3Walkthrough

Create a content plan, research to published.

Before you start: pick a window to plan for: a launch, a theme, or a full quarter.

A plan is the through-line for everything you'll ship. You'll go from a blank window to an approved calendar with a draft behind every slot: the agents do the research and the first pass, you make the calls.

1
Research the angle

Open Projects → New plan, name the initiative, and set the window (e.g. "Q3 launch", Jul–Sep). Robynn reads your Growth Cortex: positioning, audience, what's already shipped, so the plan starts from your truth, not a blank prompt.

The Content Studio projects workspace, where a new plan starts from your Growth Cortex.

New plan · research.

2
Set your intent

Enter the audience, the one message you're leaning into, and the channels. This is the call the agent can't make for you: everything downstream inherits it.

Tip

One sharp message beats three hedged ones. The narrower the intent, the better the drafts.

3
Generate the calendar

Click Draft plan. The agent lays a cadence of pieces across your window, each slotted to a date. Read it as a strong first draft of the schedule, not a commitment.

4
Iterate with the agent

Drag pieces to new dates, cut what doesn't earn its place, and ask the agent to reshape: "fewer posts, more depth." It redrafts the slots in place. This is the loop where the plan becomes yours.

Note

Cutting is a decision, not a failure. A tighter calendar ships.

5
Draft a piece

Open a calendar slot, give a one-line angle, and the agent drafts it in your brand voice with the plan's context. Sharpen the hook and cut the filler, this is your 10%. In a hurry? You can start right here instead, with Create → New item.

New content item.

6
Approve and publish

Approve the plan, then Publish or schedule each piece. Every item stays linked to its plan, so the calendar always reflects what's actually live.

What you'll have

An approved quarter: a calendar you believe in, and a draft behind every slot. The agents took the blank page; you kept the judgment.

You now have a content plan: an approved quarter with a draft behind every slot. Next, hand it to to put a launch behind it.

Website Studio

Where your site becomes a living surface: brought in, edited visually, and kept safe until you publish.


1What it is

Bring your site in, then change it without fear.

Website Studio is where you build, edit, and optimize your website, every change held draft-safe, so nothing goes live until you publish. The screen opens on "Your websites."

Most editors trade speed for safety. Website Studio keeps both: a Brand Agent holds edits on brand, and a Website Auto-Healer audits your pages and proposes fixes, and you approve before anything ships.


2The pieces

Bring it in, edit it, heal it.

Bring it in

Start fresh, connect a Robynn site, or connect WordPress. Pages come in ready to edit.

Edit it visually

Shape pages by hand, with every change held draft-safe until you publish.

Let it heal

The Auto-Healer audits for SEO and GEO, then proposes fixes you review before applying.

Where most teams start

Already have a Robynn site? Connect it: changes stay safe until you publish, so you can edit without fear.


3Walkthrough

Bring a site in, then let the Auto-Healer fix it.

A

Bring your site in

Before you start: decide whether you're starting fresh or connecting an existing site.

1
Choose how to start

On the Home tab under "Your websites," pick an entry card: Start fresh to build inside Robynn (about two minutes to your first page), Connect a Robynn site to edit one Robynn already built, or Connect WordPress to pull pages in.

2
Connect the safe way

Most teams pick Connect a Robynn site: your changes stay safe until you publish. With Connect WordPress, updates go back as WordPress drafts, so the live site never moves until you approve.

3
Open a page

Your pages come in ready to edit. Open one and start shaping it by hand: nothing you touch is live yet.

Website Studio · your websites.

B

Optimize and publish safely

Before you start: have a site connected from track A.

1
Edit pages visually

Shape each page by hand. Every change stays draft-safe until you publish, so you can rework freely.

2
Run the audit

Open the Website Auto-Healer tab and Choose a website to run the brand-aware SEO and GEO audits across its pages.

3
Review the recommendations

The Auto-Healer surfaces what it found. Read each recommendation and decide what to apply: the calls stay yours.

4
Publish as drafts

Send your changes as drafts. Nothing goes live until you approve it, so the site moves only when you say so.

Your site is in, audited, and publishing as drafts: live only when you say so. Next: point at it to keep the pages fed.

Field Guide

Campaign Studio

Where a sentence about who you want to reach becomes a campaign you can run, watch, and steer.


1What it is

Turn a sentence into a running campaign.

Campaign Studio is where a plain-language target becomes a multi-step campaign you review, run, and watch: you name the outcome, the agents do the assembly.

On the Campaigns screen you describe who you want to reach, Robynn builds the plan, and you move it through status from Drafts to Active. You keep the calls only you can make: the target, the goal, and what's allowed to run.


2The pieces

One goal, one pipeline, full control.

The goal

A target and an outcome in a single sentence: who you want to reach, and what you want from them.

The plan

The multi-step campaign Robynn assembles from your goal. Read it during Continue setup, before it runs.

The pipeline

Where every campaign lives by status: Drafts → Ready → Active, so you always know what is moving and what is waiting on you.

Where to start

Start with the outcome you can name. Know who you want but not the steps? Describe the target and let Robynn build the plan.


3Walkthrough

From a goal to a running campaign.

A

Start from a goal

Before you start: know the outcome you want.

1
Open a new campaign

On the Campaigns screen, click New campaign, then choose the Describe it tab over Use a collection.

Describe the target

In the free-text box, type the target in plain language: "Get me 50 potential renters in Springfield, Missouri." Or start from a template: Enterprise expansion, Product launch, or Re-engagement.

3
Find accounts

Click Find accounts. Robynn reads your sentence and assembles a multi-step campaign around it.

4
Review before it runs

Click Continue setup and read the plan Robynn built. Nothing runs until you've seen it and moved it forward.

The Campaign Studio new-campaign view: describe a target in plain language, then find accounts.

Campaign Studio · start from a goal.

B

2
Set it Active

Move it from Ready to Active to put the campaign in motion.

3
Filter by status

Use the status filters (All, Active, Ready, Drafts, Failed, Archived) to see exactly where each campaign stands.

4
Handle and archive

Address anything that lands in Failed, then Archive what's done to keep the pipeline clean.
