Turn newsletter content into branded images and approved tweets

New rows in Google Sheets become on-brand images and tweet drafts, which you approve from your phone before posting to X.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. Runs once per each new content row; a person has to approve before it continues.

The problem it solves

Every newsletter or blog post you publish could use a matching graphic and a tweet to promote it, but making custom images and writing social copy for each one takes time you don't have. Hiring a designer for every post isn't realistic either, so most of that promotion just doesn't happen.

Who it fits

Content and marketing teams who publish newsletters or blog posts and want matching social graphics without hiring a designer.

How it works

  1. A new title and summary row appears in Google Sheets
  2. An AI-generated, brand-safe image is created and saved back to the sheet
  3. AI writes a short tweet based on the same content
  4. You receive the image and tweet on your phone for approval
  5. Once approved, the post goes live on X and the sheet updates
What you get

On-brand posts ready for a quick phone approval

New content in your sheet becomes a branded image and tweet draft sent straight to your phone for approval before it goes live on X.

What you get

A branded image, a ready tweet, and a posted update, all logged in your spreadsheet.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, an OpenAI account, an image generation API, and an X 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.
