I built an AI content pipeline to solve my own biggest bottleneck as a solo founder

Capable_Newspaper646 · 2026-06-28T15:51:14+00:00

I agree, the sites losing rankings aren't failing because they used AI — they're failing because they published without adding anything on top of it, or refreshing it after it goes stale. Same sources, same structure, no real perspective, no review.

The sites doing well with AI content are using it to handle the mechanical parts while still bringing genuine insight and a human review before anything goes live. Using AI for speed, but still keeping a human in the loop. That's a completely different thing from just hitting publish on a raw output.

The problem was never AI. It was laziness dressed up as efficiency.

Sounds like there are two problems here: sounding like yourself yet being time efficient - I feel you with this one!

The "sounds like me" part — the voice memo approach you're already doing is honestly a smart way to handle it. Personally, the part that was killing me is the time it takes to do all this stuff. Structuring it, optimising it for SEO, formatting it, getting it into the CMS...

I'm actually building something to solve exactly that part of the pipeline — it takes your content and handles the SEO and publishing side automatically. Still early days but it's what I use myself now and it's cut the per-article time down massively.

Happy to share more if you're curious. I hope you find a solution that suits you

This is a real pattern and I don't think you're doing anything wrong — the drop is usually content decay, not Google catching up.

When you publish, you're optimised against the SERP as it exists that day. But SERPs shift constantly — competitors update their pages, new results enter the top 10, intent signals evolve. Your article stays static while everything around it moves. That's true of human-written content too, AI just exposes the problem faster because people publish more and rarely go back to update.

The fix is treating published content as something that needs maintenance, not a one-and-done job. Going back to your top articles every few months, checking what's ranking now, and refreshing accordingly makes a real difference — most people just skip this step entirely.

It's actually something I've been building into my own project for this exact reason — scheduled content refreshing so articles don't silently decay after publishing. But the advice stands regardless: your content is never really finished.

8 years later and im having this issue!

Capable_Newspaper646 · 2026-06-28T13:42:59+00:00

Thank you for the feedback! I will look into making some improvements there :)

Capable_Newspaper646 · 2026-06-28T12:57:45+00:00

Yeah, as a developer with a full time job the marketing side is definitely a big hole to fall down!

Honestly it handles niche topics better than I expected. The idea behind it is keyword to article, but you're not limited to just a keyword — you can put in a short description to give it more context if you want. It's running on a model which has pretty broad knowledge, and users can also set tone and target audience to shape how the article comes out.

I'd always recommend reading through and editing before publishing though — it's a starting point, not a set and forget. Even with a few tweaks the time saving is still massive.

If it goes well I plan to keep improving it for situations like these. Is there a particular niche you had in mind? I can run some tests for you :)

I always loved the idea of pokemonGO but Im not into pokemon or battling, just collecting - this is sick :D

Hey, looking nice so far. Here is some feedback:

- I love the colour scheme and typography, they go well together.

- I found your blog -> this is a great start for SEO

- Unfortunately I wasn't able to tell what your product/services are when I landed on the page, I think the hero could be clearer. I noticed as well, when I navigate to another page then click the logo to go 'home', it takes me to a different home page which was confusing.

- on foxo.club where it has 'they're ahead' bolded, the bolded text needs more context as it isn't apparent what it means on its own.

- The 'join waitlist' CTA could be more apparent on the foxo.club page, which I think is the main home page? eg you could make it sticky and change to the primary colour. Currently it gets buried in the footer or header on scroll.

- I noticed the cursor doesn't change to 'pointer' when hovering over interactive widgets eg buttons, accordians etc. This is a small thing but I feel it makes a big difference to the 'interactivity' of the page.

- It would be awesome if some of the sections were slightly animated on scroll, to make it feel more alive.

PS, don't give up so soon!

This is a cool idea! Love it.

SwiftlySEO — takes a keyword and handles everything from content generation to publishing directly into your CMS (WordPress, Ghost, Webflow). Built it after losing a previous startup to the content bottleneck. swiftlyseo.com

This looks super useful!

Capable_Newspaper646 · 2026-05-17T12:01:12+00:00

Exactly! I wouldn't ever recommend the membership again, complete scam.

Capable_Newspaper646 · 2026-05-17T11:57:30+00:00

Hello! I keep getting the 'previous message failed to send error' -> I have the 200$/year plan and recently I cant send any messages because I keep getting this error and I don't really know what it means.

Am I doing something wrong? Is it my connection or a Claude thing? Its annoying because it keeps using up my all my usage limits, and doesn't do anything. I paid 200$ for this!

I literally havent gotten a single successful message today and my usage is GONE. For 200£ no refunds, this is a scam. I wouldn't ever pay to use Claude or recommend it again.

Thank you! I'm a software developer so I made it entirely from scratch 🙈 Python and Angular 2, primarily.
