The problem it solves

Turning a report or document into a polished blog post means retyping the content, restructuring it with headings, and thinking through SEO, and that eats a whole afternoon per piece. When you have a folder full of PDFs waiting to become content, the backlog just keeps growing.

Who it fits

A content team, marketer, or business owner who has useful documents but no time to rewrite them into blog posts.

How it works

  1. New PDFs are picked up from a Google Drive folder
  2. The text is extracted from each PDF, one file at a time
  3. AI rewrites the content into a long-form, SEO-structured article
  4. The finished article is saved as an HTML file
  5. The file is placed in a destination Google Drive folder, ready to publish
What you get

Blog drafts ready for one quick review

You get freshly written blog posts pulled straight from your PDFs, formatted and ready for you to review before they go live.

What you get

A publish-ready HTML blog article for every PDF, saved in Google Drive.

What you need

A Google Drive account and an OpenAI API key.

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.
