Frequently Asked Questions — Medium

Why did Medium deprecate public API integration tokens?

Medium stopped issuing new public integration tokens to curb automated spam. Reeling Companion lets you publish stories directly through your authenticated Chrome session on medium.com.

How does Reeling prevent Medium "Network-Only" AI demotion?

Medium’s curation guidelines restrict unedited AI-generated stories to Network-Only distribution. Reeling scans your draft for common LLM phrasing clichés and lets you strip them in 1 click before publishing.
