Govern Use Cases
Regulated Industry Compliance
Section titled “Regulated Industry Compliance”A financial services company requires all marketing content to include specific disclaimers. They create a hard-severity legal compliance rule with required disclosures. Every Cortex draft is checked before approval — if a disclaimer is missing, the draft can’t be approved until it’s added. The audit log provides evidence of compliance for regulatory reviews.
Key features used: Legal compliance rules, hard severity, audit log, approval workflow
Brand Consistency Across Teams
Section titled “Brand Consistency Across Teams”A company with 10 content writers uses brand consistency checks to ensure all content matches their defined voice. They set a similarity threshold of 0.80 and review flagged content weekly. Over time, writers internalize the brand voice, and the number of flags decreases.
Key features used: Brand consistency checks, similarity scoring, Brand DNA Vault integration
Terminology Standardization
Section titled “Terminology Standardization”A technology company rebrands a product line and needs to ensure old product names stop appearing in new content. They add the old names to the prohibited terms list and the new names to approved terms. Every piece of content is automatically scanned — old names are flagged with the correct replacement suggested.
Key features used: Terminology rules, approved/prohibited terms, automated scanning
Audit Trail for Client Reporting
Section titled “Audit Trail for Client Reporting”An agency uses the Govern audit log to generate monthly reports for clients showing all content actions — what was created, edited, approved, and published. The immutable log provides transparency and accountability, and the filter options make it easy to pull activity for specific date ranges or content types.
Key features used: Audit log, filtering by date range and action type, export
Multi-Tier Approval Process
Section titled “Multi-Tier Approval Process”A marketing team uses role-based permissions to create a two-tier review process: editors create and refine content, then submit for compliance checks. Admins review the compliance results and either approve or request revisions. Only approved content can be published or adapted for channels.
Key features used: Role-based access, compliance checks, revision requests, approval workflow
