RSS-to-LinkedIn Content Automation Agent

An AI agent that monitors an RSS feed for new blog posts and automatically drafts a viral LinkedIn post saved to Google Docs, with a Slack notification when ready for human review.

01 THE IDEA

This workflow, demonstrated live, monitors a company's blog RSS feed, detects new posts, uses AI to draft a LinkedIn post following viral content principles (short paragraphs, punchy opener, etc.), saves the draft to Google Docs, and pings Slack to notify a human for final review and posting. Todd emphasizes that the human's role becomes just the 'final polish' — 5-10 minutes of editing rather than writing from scratch.

As a productized service or SaaS, this could be sold to content marketers, solo founders, and marketing agencies who need a consistent LinkedIn presence but lack the time to write posts manually. The key differentiator is the opinionated LinkedIn post format baked into the prompt, which could be trained and refined over time into a proprietary 'voice engine' for clients.

03 THE VERDICT

Taplio already does the core of this well and has distribution. The RSS-to-Docs workflow is a differentiator for teams that want editorial control, but it's a feature not a company. Best built as an add-on offering within an automation agency or as a very specific micro-SaaS targeting B2B content teams who manage multiple company blogs. Don't compete head-on with Taplio — position as the 'editorial workflow' tool, not the 'LinkedIn growth' tool.
