Publish Once.Syndicate Everywhere.

Connect a blog, podcast, newsletter, or YouTube channel. Aidelly auto-drafts or auto-publishes new items to social with platform-tuned AI captions, approval flows, and auto-pause on broken sources.

Four source types

Same engine, same approval flow, same AI captioning, just point it at whatever you already publish.

RSS / Atom

WordPress, Ghost, Notion, Medium, custom CMS, any feed URL.

Podcasts

Paste a podcast RSS feed. New episodes syndicate with teaser captions.

Newsletters

Beehiiv, Substack, or any newsletter with a public feed.

YouTube

Paste a channel handle or URL. Aidelly resolves the upload feed automatically.

What you get

AI captions per platform

LinkedIn long-form, X hook-first, Instagram hashtag-heavy, each new item gets a tuned caption.

Three publish modes

Auto-draft only, approval batch, or full auto-publish, pick per source.

Polls every 15 min

New items appear in Aidelly within a quarter hour of going live.

Smart dedup

Same item won't get reposted if you re-edit it on the source. Dedup by canonical URL + content hash.

24h first-connect cap

Backfill capped at the last 24h so we don't flood your queue with months of archive.

Auto-pause on errors

3 consecutive fetch failures pause the source and email you. Resume in one click.

Selective platforms

Pick which platforms each source fans out to. Podcast → X + LinkedIn. Newsletter → IG + LinkedIn.

Routes compatible

Auto-Post FAQ

What sources can I connect?

Four source types: (1) RSS / Atom, any blog or CMS with a feed URL (WordPress, Ghost, Notion, Medium, custom). (2) Podcast, paste an RSS podcast feed and new episodes auto-syndicate. (3) Newsletter. Beehiiv and Substack via their public RSS, or a generic newsletter adapter. (4) YouTube, paste a channel handle or URL and Aidelly resolves the upload feed.

Does it post automatically or just draft?

Your choice per source. Three modes: (1) Auto-draft only. New items become drafts you review. (2) Approval batch. New items group into a batch for one-click approval. (3) Auto-publish, bypass review (use with trusted sources only).

How does the per-platform AI rewrite work?

For each new item, Aidelly generates a platform-tuned caption: long-form for LinkedIn, hook-first for X, hashtag-heavy for Instagram, etc. Podcast and YouTube items get teaser captions with episode/video metadata. Uses your brand voice from Brand Memory.

What about the first-connect backfill?

Capped at 24 hours of source history on first connect to prevent dumping an entire archive into your scheduler. After that, only new items.

What if a source breaks?

Three consecutive failed fetches auto-pause the source and email you. Resume in one click after fixing the source. The activity log records every pause / resume.

How often are sources polled?

Every 15 minutes across all source types. YouTube and podcasts use the same polling cadence as RSS. There is no per-source-type difference today.

Wait, this used to be called RSS?

Correct. Auto-Post is the new umbrella for the same engine. We extended it past RSS to cover podcasts, newsletters, and YouTube in PR #834. Old /features/rss bookmarks 301-redirect here.
