The problem it solves

Keeping up with breaking news and turning it into social posts for every platform takes constant attention. Between reading full articles, writing summaries, and formatting posts for each network, content creation eats your whole day.

Who it fits

A media team, content creator, or marketer who needs to post news summaries across multiple social platforms quickly.

How it works

  1. You provide a list of article links to process
  2. The system fetches each article and pulls out the clean text and main image
  3. AI writes a factual summary and a short, audience-friendly version
  4. AI turns the summary into a social post with a hook, caption, and hashtags
  5. The image is saved to Google Drive and the post is scheduled across your social accounts
What you get

Social engagement that turns into new customers

You get ready-made social posts with images generated automatically from any news article you feed it.

What you get

Ready-to-publish social media posts, complete with image and caption, scheduled across your platforms.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, a Google Drive account, and a GetLate account connected to your social platforms.

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.
