# Interview-to-content starter

A manual workflow template. No automation is connected. Replace every bracketed field with your own source material.

## 1. Source and permissions
- Interview title: [title]
- Source file or URL: [source]
- Interviewee: [name]
- Permission to record and publish: [status]
- Audience and intended outcome: [audience / outcome]
- Material to exclude: [confidential or off-record sections]

## 2. Evidence ledger
| Timestamp | Exact source excerpt | Supported idea | Verification needed |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [00:00] | [verbatim excerpt] | [one idea] | [source / reviewer] |

## 3. Editorial brief
- Main question: [question]
- Working thesis: [claim supported by source]
- Three supporting points: [points and timestamps]
- What this source does not establish: [limits]
- Additional fact checks: [checks]

## 4. Outputs
Draft one article, one newsletter introduction, and three short posts. For each output, record the source timestamps, intended reader, main point, and next action. Adapt the argument to each channel rather than copying the same paragraph.

## 5. Review gate
- [ ] Names, figures and quotations checked against source
- [ ] Unsupported claims removed
- [ ] Confidential material excluded
- [ ] Attribution and publication permissions confirmed
- [ ] Human editor approved

## 6. Publication log
| Output | Reviewer | Approved date | Published URL | Observations |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [article] | [name] | [date] | [URL] | [notes] |

## Starting prompt
Use only the transcript I supply. Identify up to five useful ideas and cite a timestamp and exact excerpt for each. Distinguish the speaker's opinion from independently verified facts. Do not invent quotations, results, customers or numbers. Mark missing evidence explicitly. Wait for my approval of the evidence ledger before drafting content.
