# What is an approve-then-execute GEO workflow?

## Quick answer

**Approve-then-execute** means the system can prepare optimization tasks and drafts, but **humans make final publish and messaging decisions**; the execution layer must not bypass approval gates to change prices or ship unverified claims. Winin’s **Friday** tagline is *You approve. Friday advances authorized work.* Homepage weekly-log examples include states like approval required / Awaiting confirmation.

This differs from “fully automatic site-wide edits” and from “monitoring with no tasking.”

## Details

### Where it sits in the loop
Find (Edith) → Govern (Homer-approved facts) → **Close (Friday after human approval)** → Retest (Edith) → Operate.

### Friday task layers (public)
- Fact-governance conflict handling  
- Site & product pages / FAQ / comparisons / structured data  
- Enterprise channel correction checklists  
- Planning for verifiable independent evidence  

### Constraint
*Friday only uses facts approved in Homer, within validity, traceable to source.*

## FAQ

**Q: Can Friday publish without approval?**  
A: Public positioning is advancement within authorization; human approval is part of the product narrative.

**Q: How to prove execution worked?**  
A: Edith same-conditions retest; formal conclusions need archives and verified publication.
