LinkedIn Content Factory with OpenAI Research & Replicate Branded Images Workflow Solution

Workflow overview

Why this workflow matters

Improves internal consulting operations and productivity.

Template Description: > Never run out of high-quality LinkedIn content again. This workflow is a complete content factory that takes a simple topic from a Google Sheet, uses AI to research a trending angle, writes a full post, generates a unique and on-brand image, and publishes it directly to your LinkedIn profile. This template is designed for brands and creators who want to maintain a consistent, high-quality social media presence with minimal effort. The core feature is its ability to generate visuals that adhere to a specific, customizable brand style guide. 🚀 What does this workflow do? Pulls content ideas from a Google Sheet acting as your content calendar. Uses an AI Researcher (OpenAI + SerpAPI) to find the most recent and engaging news or trends related to your topic. Employs an AI Writer to draft a complete, professional LinkedIn post with a catchy title, engaging text, and relevant hashtags. Generates a unique, on-brand image for every post using Replicate, based on a customizable style guide (colors, composition, mood) defined within the workflow. Publishes the post with its image** directly to your LinkedIn profile. Updates the status** in your Google Sheet to "done" to avoid duplicate posts. 🎯 Who is this for? Marketing Teams:** Automate your content calendar and ensure brand consistency across all visuals. Social Media Managers:** Save hours of research, writing, and design work. Solopreneurs & Founders:** Maintain an active, professional LinkedIn presence without a dedicated content team. Content Creators:** Scale your content production and focus on strategy instead of execution. ✨ Benefits End-to-End Automation:** From a single keyword to a published post, the entire process is automated. Brand Consistency:** The AI image generator follows a strict, customizable style guide, ensuring all your visuals feel like they belong to your brand. Always Relevant Content:** The AI research step ensures your posts are based on current trends and news, increasing engagement. Massive Time Savings:** Automates research, copywriting, and graphic design in one seamless flow. Content Calendar Integration:** Easily manage your content pipeline using a simple Google Sheet. ⚙️ How it Works Get Topic: The workflow fetches the next "Pending" topic from your Google Sheet. AI Research: An AI Agent uses SerpAPI to research the topic and identify a viral angle. AI Writing: A second AI Agent takes the research and writes the full LinkedIn post. Generate Image Prompt: A Code node constructs a detailed prompt, merging the post's content with your defined brand style guide. Generate Image: The prompt is sent to Replicate. The workflow waits and checks periodically until the image is ready. Publish: The generated text and image are published to your LinkedIn account. Update Status: The workflow archives the image to Google Drive and updates the topic's status in your Google Sheet to "done". 📋 AlekSystem Nodes Used Google Sheets Langchain Agent (with OpenAI & SerpAPI) Code HTTP Request Wait / If LinkedIn Google Drive 🔑 Prerequisites An active AlekSystem instance.
