CMS Content Governance

Your content team got smaller. Your publishing didn't slow down. Now what?

Companies everywhere are publishing more content with fewer people, a lot of it AI-assisted, and almost nobody added a safety net between the draft and the publish button.

I built one.

PillarShield checks content at the moment you hit publish. PII, prohibited terms, tone, hate speech. If something violates policy, it blocks. Every decision is logged as immutable audit evidence. Your team moves fast. The mistakes don't go live.

PillarShield — The Product

PillarShield is a content governance service that sits at the save/publish boundary of your CMS. It doesn't write your content. It doesn't clean up after the fact. It catches the stuff that shouldn't go live before it goes live.

PII and credential detection

SSNs, phone numbers, API keys, internal-only markers. Deterministic regex catches the obvious. AI steps in when the match is ambiguous.

Prohibited terms

Brand policy, legal restrictions, competitor mentions. You define the list.

Tone, safety, and moderation

AI checks catch off-brand tone, hate speech, and content that shouldn't be public. You control the certainty threshold for when it warns vs. when it blocks.

Immutable audit trail

Every allow, block, and override is logged server-side. Legal never has to ask "how did this get out?" because it didn't get out.

Works with Drupal (live), WordPress (built), and any CMS with a REST API.

Plans start at $299/month. That's less than an intern and infinitely less than a lawsuit.

Consulting — The Expertise Behind the Product

PillarShield enforces the rules. But someone has to define them first. That's where the consulting comes in.

Governance Engagement

You know you need content governance but you're not sure what the rules should be. I review your CMS environment, your publishing workflow, your risk exposure, and your team structure, then build a governance policy that PillarShield can enforce from day one.

This typically includes:

  • Content and integration review
  • Risk findings with severity and business impact
  • Governance policy definition (what gets blocked, what gets warned, what gets logged)
  • PillarShield configuration and onboarding

$5,000 Typical timeline: 2-3 weeks

CMS & Integration Work

I've been building and stabilizing enterprise CMS integrations for 17 years. Drupal, search (OpenSearch, Coveo), identity, analytics, line-of-business systems. If your CMS integration is broken, fragile, or blocking your team, I can fix it.

This work often leads to governance work, because once the integrations are stable, the next question is always "what's getting published through them and who's checking it?"

About

I'm Patrick Teglia. 17 years in enterprise CMS, 7 years as a senior backend engineer at Smartsheet, deep experience in content governance, publishing workflows, and CMS architecture.

I built PillarShield because I watched companies cut their content teams in half and adopt AI without adding any oversight. The mistakes that come from that aren't hypothetical. They're expensive.

PillarShield is the product. Pillar Point Consulting is the company behind it. If you need the tool, the expertise, or both, this is where to start.
