Public API: Content Brief

Generate comprehensive content briefs with SERP-based headings, AI title/description suggestions, and word count benchmarks — all programmatically.

Full endpoint reference available on Swagger.

Quick Start

Create a content brief for a target keyword:

import os
import requests

API_KEY = os.environ["KWI_API_KEY"]
BASE_URL = "https://api.keywordinsights.ai"
HEADERS = {"X-API-Key": API_KEY}

payload = {
    "keyword": "content marketing strategies",
    "language": "en",
    "location": "United States",
    "folder_id": "<your_folder_id>",
}

response = requests.post(
    f"{BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/",
    headers=HEADERS,
    json=payload,
)

data = response.json()
print(data)
# {"status": true, "payload": {"id": "339ca10b-...", "status": true, "cost": 500}}

const API_KEY = process.env.KWI_API_KEY;
const BASE_URL = "https://api.keywordinsights.ai";

const payload = {
  keyword: "content marketing strategies",
  language: "en",
  location: "United States",
  folder_id: "<your_folder_id>",
};

const response = await fetch(`${BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/`, {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "X-API-Key": API_KEY,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify(payload),
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
// {"status": true, "payload": {"id": "339ca10b-...", "status": true, "cost": 500}}

Retrieving Results

Content briefs process asynchronously. Poll the results endpoint until the data is ready:

import os
import time
import requests

API_KEY = os.environ["KWI_API_KEY"]
BASE_URL = "https://api.keywordinsights.ai"
HEADERS = {"X-API-Key": API_KEY}

order_id = "339ca10b-80c1-4248-b8d0-c11377c204c7"

while True:
    response = requests.get(
        f"{BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/",
        headers=HEADERS,
        params={"id": order_id},
    )

    data = response.json()["result"]["payload"]

    if data["status"]:
        break

    print("Processing...")
    time.sleep(15)

# Brief is ready
print(f"Keyword: {data['keyword']}")
print(f"Avg word count: {data['word_count_avg']}")
print(f"Recommended: {data['word_count_min']}–{data['word_count_max']} words")
print(f"Pages analyzed: {data['pages_count']}")
print(f"Headings found: {data['headings_count']}")

const API_KEY = process.env.KWI_API_KEY;
const BASE_URL = "https://api.keywordinsights.ai";

const order_id = "339ca10b-80c1-4248-b8d0-c11377c204c7";

let data;
while (true) {
  const response = await fetch(`${BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/?id=${order_id}`, {
    headers: { "X-API-Key": API_KEY },
  });

  const json = await response.json();
  data = json.result.payload;

  if (data.status) {
    break;
  }

  console.log("Processing...");
  await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 15000));
}

// Brief is ready
console.log(`Keyword: ${data.keyword}`);
console.log(`Avg word count: ${data.word_count_avg}`);
console.log(`Recommended: ${data.word_count_min}–${data.word_count_max} words`);
console.log(`Pages analyzed: ${data.pages_count}`);
console.log(`Headings found: ${data.headings_count}`);

The results include:

Field	Description
`raw`	SERP page structures with headings, bullet points, and content weights
`brief_title_suggests`	AI-generated meta title suggestions
`brief_description_suggests`	AI-generated meta description suggestions
`word_count_avg`	Average word count across top-ranking pages
`word_count_min` / `word_count_max`	Recommended word count range
`pages_count`	Number of SERP pages analyzed
`headings_count`	Total headings scraped from top results
`processing_status`	Status of each processing stage

Generating an AI Outline

After a content brief is complete, you can generate an AI-powered outline:

# Step 1: Trigger outline generation
response = requests.post(
    f"{BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/{order_id}/outline/",
    headers=HEADERS,
    json={"additional_context": "Focus on B2B companies"},  # optional
)

auto_id = response.json()["result"]["payload"]["auto_generate_order_id"]

# Step 2: Poll until outline is ready
while True:
    response = requests.get(
        f"{BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/{order_id}/outline/",
        headers=HEADERS,
        params={"auto_generate_order_id": auto_id},
    )

    data = response.json()["result"]["payload"]

    if data["status"]:
        break

    time.sleep(10)

print(data["string"])  # Full outline as text

// Step 1: Trigger outline generation
const response = await fetch(`${BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/${order_id}/outline/`, {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "X-API-Key": API_KEY,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ additional_context: "Focus on B2B companies" }), // optional
});

const json = await response.json();
const auto_id = json.result.payload.auto_generate_order_id;

// Step 2: Poll until outline is ready
let data;
while (true) {
  const response = await fetch(
    `${BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/order/${order_id}/outline/?auto_generate_order_id=${auto_id}`,
    {
      headers: { "X-API-Key": API_KEY },
    }
  );

  const json = await response.json();
  data = json.result.payload;

  if (data.status) {
    break;
  }

  await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 10000));
}

console.log(data.string); // Full outline as text

Listing Briefs

Retrieve a paginated list of all your content briefs:

response = requests.get(
    f"{BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/orders/",
    headers=HEADERS,
    params={"page": 1, "page_size": 20},
)

data = response.json()["result"]["payload"]
print(f"Total briefs: {data['total_orders']}")

for brief in data["orders"]:
    print(f"  {brief['keyword']} — {brief['status']}")

const response = await fetch(`${BASE_URL}/api/content-brief/orders/?page=1&page_size=20`, {
  headers: { "X-API-Key": API_KEY },
});

const json = await response.json();
const data = json.result.payload;
console.log(`Total briefs: ${data.total_orders}`);

for (const brief of data.orders) {
  console.log(`  ${brief.keyword} — ${brief.status}`);
}
