Systems and methods are described to notify an author that suggested content is available. An author-assistance tool is instantiated with a document processor to perform research to suggest content for a document being edited at the document processor. A user interaction relating to a document is received via the document processor, and the author-assistance tool generates suggested content for the document when the author has intent for content suggestion or the document has a document type that is on a list of document types for which a content suggestion should be made. The author-assistance tool then determines that the suggested content meets a pre-determined quality threshold, and generates, via the user interface of the document processor, a notification to the author that the suggested content is available.
