Viewmedia

Socrates, the content engine

A content engine for advertisers.

Blog, video, SEO, social, and recycling, from one engine you approve.

Socrates is Viewmedia's content engine. It writes, illustrates, and SEO-publishes blog posts on your site, then turns each post into video, social syndication, and recycled follow-on pieces. You approve before anything goes live. Self-serve checkout comes later. For now we start you on a monthly cadence.

How it works

You brief. Socrates drafts. You approve.

The same engine behind our Insights library, pointed at your site and your market.

  1. 01

    Brief

    Your brand, your offers, the topics your buyers actually search. That profile drives every draft.

  2. 02

    Socrates drafts

    A fact-checked blog post, on-brand images, and on-page SEO, written for your site.

  3. 03

    Video from the post

    Each article becomes a narrated video you can keep, download, and reuse.

  4. 04

    You approve

    Nothing publishes until you say so. On a la carte posts, the first three edits are included.

  5. 05

    Publish and recycle

    Live on your site, syndicated to social, then broken into follow-on posts so one piece of work feeds the month.

Long-form stays on your website. Social is a syndication of that work, not a second content calendar. Related: content production, social media, and video.

Programs

Monthly, per post, or a local stack.

Self-serve checkout is the long-term plan. These are the numbers we start with now.

FAQ

Common questions

What is Socrates?

Socrates is Viewmedia's content engine. It is the same system that drafts, fact-checks, and illustrates our own Insights library. Advertisers use it to keep a site and social channels fed without standing up a full content team.

Does anything go live without me?

No. You approve the post. On a la carte work, the first three edits are included, then extra edits are $50 each.

What is in a single post?

A blog article with on-brand images, a video made from that article, and a downloadable export of the video. SEO on the website, social syndication, and recycling are part of the monthly program.

How is the monthly program different from $100 a post?

Fifteen posts at $100 would cover the articles and videos. The $2,500 monthly program is that cadence plus SEO on your website, social syndication, and recycling of each post.

What is the local business special?

A monthly stack for a local operator: 50,000 targeted emails with a matchback file, eight blog posts with video and social syndication, website development and management, and AI implementation, at $2,500 a month. Setup is $1,000 once, for a business overhaul with agents.

Can I buy this myself online?

Not yet. Self-serve checkout for monthly content is the long-term plan. Right now you pick a program on this page, send the form, and we start the cadence.

Start a cadence. You keep the publish button.
