Stop staring at a blank LinkedIn post editor. This workflow pulls your upcoming content topics from Notion, researches trending LinkedIn formats, and uses AI to generate engaging post drafts that match your brand voice. Review and publish on your schedule.
Fetch upcoming content topics from Notion calendar
The workflow queries your Notion content calendar to retrieve topics scheduled for the upcoming week. Each topic includes the subject matter, key talking points, target audience, and any brand guidelines you've noted for that piece of content.
Research trending LinkedIn formats with AI
Using AI, the workflow analyzes current LinkedIn trends to identify post formats and structures that are performing well. This includes carousel posts, story formats, listicles, and contrarian takes. The AI suggests which format best fits each topic.
Generate LinkedIn post drafts with Claude
For each topic, Claude generates a complete LinkedIn post draft. The AI matches your brand voice, incorporates relevant hooks and CTAs, optimizes for engagement, and ensures the post follows LinkedIn best practices for reach and visibility.
Save drafts back to Notion for review
The generated drafts are saved back to your Notion workspace in a dedicated review queue. Each draft includes the suggested format, posting day recommendation, and any hashtag suggestions. Your team can review, edit, and approve before publishing.
Why automate LinkedIn content creation with AI?
Consistent LinkedIn posting is essential for building professional authority and generating leads. But coming up with fresh, engaging content week after week is exhausting. AI-powered content generation helps you maintain consistency without burning out.
Never face a blank page again
Writer's block kills LinkedIn consistency. By automatically generating drafts from your content calendar, you always have a starting point. Even if you heavily edit the AI output, you're editing rather than creating from scratch.
Maintain your posting schedule effortlessly
With weekly batch generation, you can review and schedule an entire week of LinkedIn content in one sitting. No more scrambling to write posts at the last minute or missing posting days entirely.
Align LinkedIn content with your broader content strategy
By pulling from your Notion content calendar, your LinkedIn posts automatically align with blog launches, product updates, and marketing campaigns. Everything stays coordinated without extra planning effort.
