From one blog to a newsroom.
One Blog a Day puts a small-business blog on autopilot, up to five sites on its top plan. Its ceiling is what it does not carry: no languages named, no AI disclosure, no documented compliance, and no named-byline layer. Mastheads is a different order of the same idea, a full newsroom, in any language, under named bylines, with the editorial checks and compliance a real publication needs.
One Blog a Day does one small thing well. I needed a newsroom, not a blog, and this page is the honest line between the two.
One Blog a Day is a small-site tool: one site on the lower plans, five on the top one. It names no languages, and while it advertises anti-fabrication guardrails and citations from vetted sources, there's no named editor of record, no AI disclosure, and no documented compliance or review step. Fine for a small blog; not built for a publication.

Positioning
- A newsroom that runs many publications in any language, not a handful of small blogs.
- A named editor of record and EU AI Act disclosure on every article.
- Every article shows what was checked and what fell short, with a full authenticity trace, not guardrails you can't inspect.
- The same autopilot convenience, scaled to a publication instead of one feed.
What you get that One Blog a Day doesn't.
Sourced, or it doesn't ship
Every article is written from cited sources and cross-checked against them before delivery. A judge vets each source for the specific story - right event, right dates, real substance - and a topic that can't be properly sourced is dropped, not padded. No source, no article.
A real editor of record
Nothing publishes anonymously. Each article carries a real named byline and a human editor of record, accountable for editorial standards, source policy, and disputes - the person whose name is on the door.
Review by default; auto-publish you can defend
Every claim is checked against its sources and the result is written on the article, and nothing ships silently. Auto-publish is opt-in and runs the very same checks - trustworthy when it's unattended, not merely unchecked.
Compliance built in, not bolted on
EU AI Act Article 50 disclosure on anything published unattended, self-serve GDPR export and account deletion with access and correction on request, a registered DMCA agent, and cover images we draw rather than take off the open web, so there is no stock-image rights question to clear - standard on every plan.
A newsroom in any language
Any language, for any country - written in its own grammar and idiom rather than translated, held to the same quality bar, all under one subscription. Where we curate a local newsroom register, it takes that too.
Your content, never locked in
A read-only pull API, and one-click export to WordPress WXR, Ghost, and Markdown with every image. You own the articles outright - no royalty, no attribution back to us.
One Blog a Day is built for a small blog, or five. Mastheads is what you reach for when it's a publication, not a blog: many publications, any language, named bylines, compliance, and every article showing what was checked. Same instinct, do AI content properly, at a newsroom's scale instead of a single feed.
Under the hood: it discovers stories in your niche, writes them in your voice, fact-checks against sources, illustrates, and publishes to your CMS, on your schedule.
