The problem it solves

Keeping up with what's trending and turning it into on-brand posts for every platform takes constant attention, and it's the first thing to slip when you get busy. Missing the trend window means the content lands too late to matter.

Who it fits

Content creators, social media managers, or agencies who need to post consistently on trending topics.

How it works

  1. The system checks for trending topics on a schedule
  2. Relevant trends are filtered and formatted
  3. AI writes tailored posts for X, Facebook, and Threads
  4. The posts are published automatically to each platform
What you get

Posts published on trending topics automatically

Your brand shows up with fresh posts on trending topics across X, Facebook, and Threads every day without you drafting anything.

What you get

Ready-to-publish, platform-specific posts published automatically across your social accounts.

What you need

An Apify account, a Google Gemini API key, and a Buffer 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.
