This is a handoff plan, not an automatic integration. Review outputs before the next step. Unlabeled arrows show order, not a verified data format. Use the capability links to explore tool substitutions.

  1. Step 1

    Define Your Pillars

    List your 3–5 content pillars in ChatGPT and ask it to generate 8 topic ideas per pillar, giving you 24–40 topics to work from.

  2. Step 2

    Map to Formats

    Ask ChatGPT to assign each topic a content format (thread, carousel, short video, blog, newsletter) based on the topic's depth and your channel mix.
