So I built AutoPostMode (<a href="https://autopostmode.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://autopostmode.com</a>) to run that whole loop for me.</p> <h2> What it does </h2> <ul> <li>Researches trending topics in your niche</li> <li>Writes posts in your voice</li> <li>Designs image cards for them</li> <li>Publishes to X and LinkedIn at the best times</li> </ul> <h2> The stack </h2> <ul> <li> <strong>Backend:</strong> Python with FastAPI. It's fast to build with, and the auto-generated docs made testing endpoints easy.</li> <li> <strong>Frontend:</strong> plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript. No framework, so pages stay light and quick.</li> <li> <strong>AI APIs</strong> for research and writing.</li> <li> <strong>X API and LinkedIn API</strong> for publishing.</li> <li> <strong>Cloudflare</strong> in front for caching and protection.</li> </ul> <h2> Free tools, no signup </h2> <p>Before asking anyone to sign up, I wanted people to get value right away. So there's a set of free tools at <a href="https://autopostmode.com/tools:" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://autopostmode.com/tools:</a></p> <ul> <li>Hook grader and hook generator</li> <li>Card maker</li> <li>Thread splitter</li> <li>LinkedIn character counter</li> <li>Best-time-to-post checker</li> </ul> <h2> What I learned </h2> <ol> <li>Keeping the frontend boring (no framework) saved a lot of time.</li> <li>Free tools are a better first touch than a signup wall.</li> <li>A post only sounds like you if the AI has real examples of your writing to learn from.</li> </ol> <h2> Try it </h2> <p>There's a 3-day free trial. X plans are $29, $59 and $99 per month, and LinkedIn starts at $49 per month.</p> <p>I'd love feedback from other builders. What would you want an autopilot posting tool to never do?</p> <p>I'm Amit, and I'm on X at <a href="https://x.com/decoded08" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://x.com/decoded08</a></p> showdev python ai fastapi
