Automatically draft a weekly WordPress blog post with images

Every week, the system picks a topic, writes a full article with images, and drops it into WordPress as a draft.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Keeping up a regular blog schedule is hard when everyone's slammed with client work. Topics pile up in a list but nobody has time to actually sit down and write, source images, and get a post ready to review.

Who it fits

Marketing teams or small businesses that want to keep a company blog active without hiring a full-time writer.

How it works

  1. Each Monday, the system checks a shared list of upcoming blog topics
  2. It matches the topic to the right blog category and writes a full article with images woven in
  3. It creates a featured header image and attaches it to the post
  4. It saves the finished article as a draft in WordPress
  5. It emails the team a summary so someone can review and publish
What you get

Blog drafts ready for a quick look

You get a full blog post with images written and dropped into WordPress as a draft every week.

What you get

A ready-to-review WordPress draft with a complete article, embedded images, and a featured photo, plus a summary email.

What you need

A WordPress site, a Microsoft SharePoint list, an OpenAI account, a Google Gemini account, and a Microsoft Outlook mailbox.

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.
