I built a small system that automatically turns ideas into daily X threads.
Here’s the simple version of what’s happening:
Instead of writing posts manually every day, I built a pipeline where: • An AI generates a short business case • The facts and structure are saved in a database first • The content is validated (length, format, no broken threads) • A clean, reply-chained thread is published automatically • Everything runs on a schedule
Why this matters: Most content workflows are copy-paste and fragile. If something breaks, you don’t know what changed or why. This setup treats content like a system — reliable, repeatable, and easy to fix.
What this enables: • No manual posting • No broken threads • Facts are stored before publishing • Easy to reuse or repurpose content later • Fully auditable — you can trace every post back to its source
Tools used: • OpenAI (content generation) • n8n (workflow automation) • Neon / Postgres (content ledger) • X API (publishing)
I’ll add a photo of the architecture diagram below — it explains the flow better than words.
Learning: building content this way feels much closer to engineering than writing.
