Agenda

Beyond the Checkbox: Scaling Quality through Structured Content Review

Mihai Coanda - Oxygen Content Fusion
Content review is often the "black box" of the documentation lifecycle - a critical stage where speed and quality frequently collide. While many teams have successfully optimized their authoring processes, the review phase often remains a chaotic mix of emails, disparate PDFs, and out-of-context screenshots. This bottleneck isn’t just a technical hurdle; it is a fundamental challenge of process design and cognitive load.

This session explores how to move beyond the "final checkbox" mentality by adopting a systemic approach to feedback. We will analyze the Three Levels of Review Maturity, moving from ad-hoc email chains to fully structured, component-based workflows. By examining the psychology of the "Reluctant Reviewer," attendees will learn how simple, context-rich interfaces can drastically improve SME engagement and reduce reviewer fatigue. Ultimately, the session provides a roadmap for identifying maturity gaps and leveraging structured content platforms to ensure the traceability and accountability required to scale documentation at the speed of modern development.

Docs-as-Code & AI: Powerful Vibe Authoring Workflows Harnessing AI Tool-Calling

Sorin Carbunaru - Oxygen XML Editor
Software developers like myself increasingly rely on AI-powered tools embedded directly in their working environment to augment their capabilities and accelerate productivity. Why should technical content creation be any different?

In this session, we explore how the Docs-as-Code philosophy — treating documentation as code — can evolve by adopting the same AI-assisted approach. Just as developers use AI with tool-calling capabilities to explore the project or run terminal commands, documentation teams can integrate AI tool-calling directly into their authoring workflows, granting writers the same powers.

Together we'll examine how this integration can improve the experience of technical writing. Real-world examples will show how teams can accelerate content production, preserve quality and voice, and reduce context switching.
