What marketers actually need from AI writing tools
AI writing isn't only about generating text. The day-to-day needs are broader:
- Brainstorm angles and outlines fast, without a blank page.
- Draft first passes you can edit instead of staring at a cursor.
- Tighten grammar and readability before anything ships.
- Repurpose one asset into many formats (post → thread → email).
- Stay consistent without writing a style guide for every post.
