The problem it solves

Keeping a LinkedIn page active takes a steady stream of ideas, writing, and images, and that's usually the first thing to slip when you're busy running the business. Gaps in posting mean your page looks abandoned.

Who it fits

Businesses that want an active LinkedIn presence without someone writing every post.

How it works

  1. The system watches a tracking sheet for a new topic request
  2. It pulls the latest tech headlines and has AI draft a relevant post topic
  3. AI writes the full post and a matching image prompt
  4. AI generates the image and saves it
  5. The finished post and image are published to LinkedIn
What you get

Audience reached by consistent LinkedIn posts

Your LinkedIn page stays active with fresh, on-trend posts and images, keeping your brand visible without anyone drafting content by hand.

What you get

A published LinkedIn post with a custom AI-generated image.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, a Google Gemini API key, a NewsAPI key, and a LinkedIn account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
