The problem it solves

Keeping your Instagram feed active means constantly coming up with fresh ideas, writing captions, making a matching image, and formatting everything correctly, day after day. That workload adds up fast when you're also running the rest of the business.

Who it fits

Small businesses and social media managers who need to keep an Instagram feed active without a full content team.

How it works

  1. The workflow starts on a schedule or a manual run
  2. An AI model reads a news feed and generates a post idea and caption
  3. A matching image is generated from that idea
  4. The image is resized and formatted for Instagram
  5. The finished post is published to your Instagram account
What you get

Fresh posts pulled from today's news

Your Instagram feed gets a new AI-written post and matching image built from trending news, published automatically.

What you get

A published Instagram post with an AI-written caption and a matching AI-generated image.

What you need

An OpenAI account, an image generation API key, and an Instagram 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.
