AI assistance
dough uses AI to help with two tasks during product creation:
- Chapter organization — for ebooks, AI suggests how to group your recipes into chapters based on cuisine, meal type, season, or dietary theme.
- Intro and headnote copy — AI drafts an ebook introduction, chapter intros, and individual recipe headnotes in a warm, personal voice.
All AI-generated copy is marked as “unreviewed” until you edit and approve it. You cannot publish a product with unreviewed AI copy.
