Find trending Reddit posts and draft LinkedIn posts for approval

The system finds the most engaging Reddit post each day, drafts a LinkedIn post and image, and emails you for approval.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; runs once per one per reddit feed; a person has to approve before it continues.

The problem it solves

Finding fresh, relevant content to post on LinkedIn every day is a grind, and writing something worth sharing takes real time. You want a steady stream of on-brand posts without staring at Reddit or a blank page every morning.

Who it fits

Marketing teams or founders who want a steady LinkedIn presence without writing every post from scratch.

How it works

  1. On a daily schedule, the system checks a list of Reddit feeds for business and AI news
  2. It filters for recent posts and picks the one with the most upvotes and comments
  3. AI writes a short summary post and generates a matching image
  4. You receive the draft by email to approve or reject
  5. Once approved, the post goes live on LinkedIn and is logged in Google Sheets
What you get

LinkedIn drafts waiting on your approval

Every day you get a ready-made LinkedIn post and image drawn from the top trending Reddit story, waiting in your inbox for approval.

What you get

A ready-to-approve LinkedIn post with image, published automatically once you say yes, and logged for your records.

What you need

A Bright Data account, an OpenAI account, a Gmail account, a LinkedIn account, and a Google account with Sheets access.

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.
