What this is

A prioritized list of content opportunities (listicles, how-tos, comparisons, guides) with actions like Generate brief, Create article, or Review content.

Why it matters

  • This is the fastest way to turn insights (citations + gaps) into content that wins.
  • It focuses effort where AI is already citing competitors.
  • It reduces guesswork: Meridian suggests what to create next.

Where to find it

Action → Opportunities

How it works

  • Meridian analyzes citations across your tracked prompts.
  • It identifies content gaps where competitors are cited and you are missing.
  • It ranks opportunities by expected impact (High/Medium/Low).

How to use it

  1. Open Opportunities and scan for High priority cards.
  2. Click Generate brief (or Create article, depending on the card).
  3. Wait for the brief generation steps to complete.
  4. Go to Action → Content and open the created brief.
  5. Generate the article, then edit and publish.

How to interpret results

  • If an opportunity is High → it maps to prompts with strong citation demand → do it first.
  • If you see “Review content” → you likely have content, but it needs structure/trust updates.
  • If you keep getting the same topic suggestions → your coverage is thin → build a topic cluster.
  • If you generate briefs but don’t see impact → you may not be publishing on a citeable page (or citations are off-page dominated).
  • If opportunities are low relevance → adjust prompts/topics/competitor set; your tracked universe drives suggestions.

Common questions / troubleshooting

  • “Why did it take time to generate?” → it’s analyzing citations and identifying gaps across prompt data.
  • “Where is my brief?” → check Action → Content and filter by created date.
  • “Why can I decline?” → use Decline to remove irrelevant opportunities and keep the list clean.
