What's new inside ContentMonk? November 11th 2025 update

The last couple of days have been intense on our end. While you were planning campaigns and writing great content with ContentMonk, we were knee-deep in optimization work, bug fixes, and feature releases.

We've rolled out several new features. They're usability improvements designed to speed up your workflow.

We've packed a lot into the last few weeks, so let's walk through the highlights. These aren't just incremental tweaks - they're features that change how you interact with ContentMonk from start to finish.

What's new inside ContentMonk?

✍️ Introducing the manual brief creation

If you want more control over your writing process, you'll notice a new option when creating an article: manual brief creation. This allows you to skip the ContentMonk-generated brief and build one from scratch yourself.

Pick your author, set the word count, and start writing your brief using a rich text editor. It's straightforward, and it gives you the flexibility to shape every detail before a single word of the article gets written. For teams that already know exactly what they want to say, this cuts out an entire step.

🎙️ Give instructions faster with voice recording

You'll start seeing small video buttons throughout the platform-when you're giving instructions, writing a manual brief, or anywhere you need to communicate direction. Instead of typing everything out, you can just hit record and talk through what you need.

It's faster than typing, and honestly, it's easier to capture nuance when you're speaking naturally. The voice recording gets transcribed and integrated right where you need it, so you don't lose any context or clarity.

🎉 Add specific knowledge base documents in content editorials

This one is huge! When you're writing a manual brief or giving instructions for the ContentMonk-generated one, you can now reference specific documents from your knowledge base directly in the editor (or Instructions field).

Type "/" and a dropdown appears with all your uploaded documents. Keep typing to filter and find the exact one you want.

This means you can pull unique insights from specific case studies, research reports, or internal docs at the precise moment they're relevant. Instead of telling the AI to "use something from the knowledge base," you can point it to the exact source and say, "include insights from this document here."

🖼️ ContentMonk editor now supports images and tables

You can now add images and tables directly inside the brief or article editor. ContentMonk's AI writing assistant will also automatically generate tables when they make sense for the content, such as comparison charts, feature breakdowns, or data summaries.

Tables improve your SEO and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) because they structure information in a way that search engines and AI systems can parse easily.

Both images and tables are fully customizable, so you can adjust them to fit your exact needs without leaving the editor.

🪪 Upload documents to analyze users' writing style

Head to Settings, then Style Guides, and you'll find a new way to set up the author's tone of voice for each user in your workspace.

You've always been able to upload three blog posts to train ContentMonk on someone's style, but now there's a second option: upload a single document that contains multiple writing examples.

This is useful when a writer doesn't have published blog posts yet but writes regularly on LinkedIn or in other formats. Copy five or six of their best LinkedIn posts into one document, upload it to ContentMonk, and the platform will analyze their style the same way it would with traditional blog posts.

Once ContentMonk understands the style, any time that person is listed as the author of a blog post or LinkedIn update, the AI will match their tone and voice automatically. It's one less thing to edit later.

Okay, a lot of new stuff, right? But, guess what!

We're not done yet. Not even close.

🥳 What's next on the roadmap?

The last few weeks were focused on addressing issues that needed attention and implementing features you've been requesting. However, the team's already deep into the next phase, and there's plenty more to come that we can't wait to show you.

• Content types, templates, and multi-repurposing - Categorize your content inside content editorial according to different content types (article, success story, newsletter, ebook, product update, etc). Assign specific templates to specific content types (if you want - i.e. if you're always following the same template for success stories or newsletters), and repurpose content from one content type to another (i.e. turn 5 articles into one ebook in two clicks; or turn an article into a newsletter)
• Team collaboration, sharing, and commenting - We're working on better collaboration tools so your team can move faster. Share articles with people from inside or outside of your organization, let other people add comments to specific sentences and paragraphs, and work together.
• Blog integration and automatic internal linking - integrate your sitemap with ContentMonk, and every time when you write a new article, ContentMonk will automatically include relevant internal links.

The Bottom Line

ContentMonk is getting better every week, and we're just getting started. The features we've shipped recently are solid improvements, but what's coming next will be even more useful. Keep an eye on your dashboard for updates, and if there's something specific you'd like to see, please let us know. We're listening, and we're building this thing with you in mind.
