The problem it solves

Coming up with fresh blog ideas week after week is exhausting, and staring at a blank page kills momentum. You still need to research what's trending, decide on an angle, and produce a full draft before anyone can even start editing.

Who it fits

A blogger, content marketer, or SEO specialist who needs a steady stream of article drafts.

How it works

  1. A keyword is set on a schedule you choose
  2. Top search results for that keyword are gathered automatically
  3. AI brainstorms three different article angles based on the research
  4. A full draft and a matching cover image are generated for each angle
  5. Each draft is saved to Notion and a completion message is sent to Slack
What you get

Blog drafts ready before you start writing

You get three different blog drafts with cover images built from a trending topic, saved straight to Notion.

What you get

Three complete blog drafts with cover images, saved in Notion and ready for editing.

What you need

A web scraping subscription, an OpenAI account, a Notion workspace, and a Slack workspace.

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.
