AI agent for copywriters
Copy Approval Chain Tracker Agent
One locked copy version with a complete record of who approved it
What it does
Copy gets approved by one person and then changed by the next, so nobody is sure which version is final. This agent sends the draft to each reviewer in the agreed order and records every comment. It merges edits that do not conflict, and flags edits where two reviewers disagree. Then it compares the merged version with each earlier sign-off. If a change reverses something a previous reviewer already approved, it stops the chain and asks both people to settle it. Each reviewer sees only the changes since their last look. The owner approves the final locked version, and the agent records who approved what and when. Edge case: a legal reviewer's required wording always wins over style edits and is marked as locked.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list
- Draft ready for review
- Send the draft to the next reviewer with changes since their last look
- Record comments and edits
- Merge edits that do not conflict and flag conflicts
- Does the merged version still match every earlier approval?If not: stop the chain and send the conflict to both reviewers. Back to step 2.
- Is all locked wording unchanged?If not: restore the locked wording and note the reason. Back to step 2.
- Move on to the next reviewer until all have seen it
- Owner approves and locks the final versionThe agent waits here for your OK.
- Locked copy and approval log
How it decides
Non-conflicting edits are merged. A change that undoes an earlier sign-off, or alters locked wording, stops the chain until the people involved decide.
- Merge edits only when they touch different sentences
- Stop the chain if a change reverses an earlier sign-off
- Treat legal wording as locked
- Remind a reviewer after 2 working days of silence
Make it yours
Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.
- Reviewer order
- Wording that is always locked
- Reminder timing (default 2 working days)
- Where the final version is stored
What keeps you in control
It always asks you first
- Sending copy to reviewers outside the team
- Locking the final version
Hard limits
- Never edits copy beyond merging reviewers' changes
- Never skips a reviewer in the chain
It stops when
- Done: owner locked the version and the log is complete
- Stop: reviewers cannot agree on a conflicting change
