How Wren Suggests Post Ideas

How Wren generates post ideas from your profile, audience, recent posts, and sources — and how to review, prioritize, and dismiss them in your idea bank.

Wren regularly surfaces ideas you're uniquely positioned to write — questions your audience would want your take on, not generic prompts anyone could answer. You'll find these suggestions in the Suggested tab on the Sources page, where you can review them and decide which ones are worth pursuing.

Where ideas come from

Wren draws on what it knows about you to shape every suggestion:

  • Your profile (About Me) — your role, domain, and the patterns you've worked through. This is the lens for every idea — and it's required: if your About Me is empty, Wren skips idea generation entirely, so fill it in to start getting suggestions.
  • Your audience — who you write for and what they find valuable, so suggestions are worth their attention.
  • Your recent posts — to avoid repeating angles you've already covered, and to surface follow-up questions your readers might ask next.

Reviewing suggestions

  1. Open Sources from the sidebar and go to the Suggested tab.
  2. Each suggestion shows a title and a starting angle. Click any one to open its panel and read the full detail.
  3. When you find one you like, click Add to Ideas to promote it to your Idea Bank.

Once in your Idea Bank, the idea works like any other — you can refine it in a chat with Wren and develop it into a post when you're ready.

Suggestions that don't interest you can be dismissed; they won't resurface. Wren keeps up to ten suggestions live at a time; the nightly run tops the list up once you've cleared three or more slots.

Working with an idea from your bank

After promoting a suggestion (or saving one directly from a writing chat or elsewhere):

  1. Open the Ideas page from the sidebar.
  2. Click any idea to open its panel. The Details tab shows starting angles, why you're the right person to answer it, and why your audience cares.
  3. Use the Refine tab — a live chat with Wren — to develop the idea further before you write.

Shortlisting the ones you like

A few simple actions help you curate your bank:

  • My Priority (1–10) to rank ideas in your own order.
  • Change Status (new, reviewed, dismissed, written) to track where each idea stands. Mark the ones worth keeping as Reviewed.

Click a column header to sort, or use filters to narrow by status or priority. Save a view if you want to return to the same setup.

Dismissing suggestions

If an idea isn't for you:

  • Set its Status to Dismissed to move it aside while keeping a record.
  • Or select one or more ideas and use Delete to remove them permanently.

Dismissed ideas are set aside and won't resurface, which keeps your bank focused on what you care about. (Dismissing doesn't retrain Wren — it just clears the clutter.)
