I kept losing hours every week to the same loop: find something worth posting about, write it, make an image, then remember to post at a good time. So I built AutoPostMode (https://autopostmode.com) to run that whole loop for me.
What it does
- Researches trending topics in your niche
- Writes posts in your voice
- Designs image cards for them
- Publishes to X and LinkedIn at the best times
The stack
- Backend: Python with FastAPI. It's fast to build with, and the auto-generated docs made testing endpoints easy.
- Frontend: plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript. No framework, so pages stay light and quick.
- AI APIs for research and writing.
- X API and LinkedIn API for publishing.
- Cloudflare in front for caching and protection.
Free tools, no signup
Before asking anyone to sign up, I wanted people to get value right away. So there's a set of free tools at https://autopostmode.com/tools:
- Hook grader and hook generator
- Card maker
- Thread splitter
- LinkedIn character counter
- Best-time-to-post checker
What I learned
- Keeping the frontend boring (no framework) saved a lot of time.
- Free tools are a better first touch than a signup wall.
- A post only sounds like you if the AI has real examples of your writing to learn from.
Try it
There's a 3-day free trial. X plans are $29, $59 and $99 per month, and LinkedIn starts at $49 per month.
I'd love feedback from other builders. What would you want an autopilot posting tool to never do?
