Claude-Journalist leverages the power of the Claude 3 AI model to research, write, and edit high-quality articles on any given topic. It utilizes web search APIs to gather relevant information, analyzes the content, and generates well-structured, informative, and engaging articles that read as if they could be published in major media publications.
If you want to try the AI journalist, but don't want to bother with code, you can use a modified version directly on the HyperWrite Platform. If you're a first-time user, you will be asked to sign in. Once you do so, come back and click this link again to go directly to the tool.

To run Claude-Journalist, you need:
- An Anthropic API key for accessing the Claude AI model
- A SERP API key for performing web searches
- Open the
claude_journalist.ipynbnotebook in Google Colab or Jupyter Notebook. - Replace the placeholders for
ANTHROPIC_API_KEYandSERP_API_KEYin the notebook with your respective API keys. - Run the notebook cells sequentially to execute the code.

- Wait for the AI system to research, write, and edit the article.
Claude-Journalist is an experimental tool designed to assist in the article writing process. While it aims to generate high-quality content, the output should be carefully reviewed and fact-checked by human editors before any publication. The generated articles may require further editing and refinement to meet specific editorial standards and guidelines.
