FAQ
Short answers to the questions people ask most. Each links to the guide with the full detail.
What is Lyra?
Lyra is an AI blog writer. She discovers topics worth ranking for, writes each post in your blog's voice, fact-checks every claim, and opens a ready-to-merge pull request in your repo. You review and merge. See What is Lyra?.
Does Lyra publish posts automatically?
No. Lyra opens a pull request and tags you. Nothing publishes until you merge. The merge is always yours. See Reviewing and merging.
Do I need my own Claude key?
Yes. Lyra runs on your own Claude credential, either an Anthropic API key or a Claude Code OAuth token, so every post bills to your account at cost. See Add your Claude key.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free plan writes 3 posts and needs no card. The 3-post limit is a lifetime total. See Plans and pricing.
How does Lyra write in my voice?
When you connect your repo, Lyra scopes it and generates a writing guide that captures your format and voice. The writer and reviewer follow that guide. You can edit it. See Connect your repository.
Where do posts show up?
In your GitHub repo, as pull requests labeled blog. Lyra commits each post to a branch, opens the PR, and tags you to merge. See The pipeline.
What counts against my post limit?
Posts written, meaning a draft pushed to a branch, not posts merged. The monthly limit is a hard stop. See Billing.
Do I need a Gemini key?
Only for banners. Lyra uses a Google Gemini key to generate a hero banner for each post. It is optional, and posts ship without it. See Banner images.
Can I run more than one blog?
Yes. Each website is a project with its own repo, pipeline, plan, and team. Add a project slot to run another. See Multiple websites.
How do I pause Lyra?
Pause agents in Settings > Agents, for everything or for specific websites. In-flight runs finish, and nothing new starts until you resume. See Managing agents.
Does Lyra fact-check?
Yes. She checks every factual claim against the page it cites, corrects wrong figures, takes out claims the source contradicts, and reports anything she could not confirm. If you set a pricing page, she verifies prices too. Every pull request ends with a fact verification summary. See Review scores.
Can I use Lyra from Claude or ChatGPT?
Yes. Connect Lyra in Settings > AI connections and your assistant can read your posts, check the SEO Copilot and analytics, and write, revise, and publish posts when you ask. It works with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, and any app that supports remote MCP servers. It asks you before anything that publishes or runs on your key. See Use Lyra from your AI assistant.
Can I ask for changes to a post?
Yes. Point at any paragraph, heading, list, table, or the banner on a finished post, say what you want, and send it. Lyra changes only those parts, and you can undo the round. See Ask for changes.
