The problem it solves

Keeping a steady stream of social content means constantly reading the news and rewriting it for each platform. Most days there's no time, so posting gets inconsistent or falls behind entirely.

Who it fits

A content creator, newsletter, or marketing team that wants a steady public presence without manual writing.

How it works

  1. Checks your chosen news feeds on a schedule
  2. AI scores each article for quality and relevance
  3. AI writes a platform-ready post for X and LinkedIn from the strongest stories
  4. Sends good posts to publish or review, and archives the rest
  5. Logs every article and post to Google Sheets
What you get

Posts you never have to approve

You keep a steady stream of scored, ready-to-publish stories flowing to your social channels while every article gets logged automatically for you.

What you get

Ready-to-post social content, either published automatically or waiting in a review queue, with a full history in Google Sheets.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, a Google Sheets account, and a social publishing 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.
