AI Auto Blogger for Webflow

Our autoblogger writes illustrated, on-topic posts for each of our Webflow sites on a schedule and publishes them itself. It produced about 150 posts per brand and early global leads.

The Ryz Labs Autoblogger is an AI content studio Jordan built, mostly in Replit, that connects to each of our brands' Webflow sites. For every brand it writes illustrated blog posts on our chosen topics and publishes them into the Webflow CMS, on demand or on a daily schedule. Jordan demoed it in Episode 2 (July 3, 2025). By then it had produced about 150 posts per brand.

Why we built it

Jordan has worked on SEO since his time at Amazon, where he got a team funded to chase an SEO opportunity for Prime Video. His lesson: writing content about your business drives traffic, and content with images does better. But we run 10 to 15 websites, and writing for all of them by hand is a pain.

The trick is to write for what people search, not for your brand name. Nobody searched for our offsite company by name, but they did search for "off-site planning checklist," so we kept writing around that. Google Search Console tells us which terms to double down on.

The stack

  • Replit: the app, built mostly there.
  • Claude and ChatGPT: text generation through their APIs.
  • DALL-E 3 and OpenAI's newer image model: post images.
  • FLUX: added so images vary in style.
  • Webflow: the CMS each post publishes into.
  • Google Search Console: which search terms bring people in.

How we built it, step by step

  1. Build in Replit and add API keys for OpenAI and Claude.
  2. Add a Brands page. A brand is just a website: its Webflow API key, the collection fields Webflow needs, and its most common topics.
  3. Generate text and images. Claude and ChatGPT write; OpenAI's image models illustrate.
  4. Add Flux for variety so the images don't all look the same.
  5. Generate for one brand or all of them. "Generate content for all brands" writes 11 posts at once; a dropdown (HipTrain in the demo) does one brand.
  6. Publish to Webflow, with a dashboard of past posts and system logs.
  7. Schedule it, then check Search Console. Ideally daily, then double down on the terms that work.
And then from there, what the blog auto blogger will do is either on demand or at a scheduled time, ideally daily, it will write a blog post and post it automatically into our Webflow account, which then publishes that into our Webflow website.

How it turned out

About 150 posts per brand since launch. New brand sites got indexed quickly, and some got inbound before we'd launched them. The clearest case was NTRVSTA, our AI interview tool, which was getting traffic from Google and from LLMs like Perplexity and ChatGPT before we had marketed it.

And that's led to some significant leads already. And I think even what's more interesting is that it's global.

— Jordan Metzner, Episode 2

The day before recording, leads came in from Malaysia, Holland and the UK. Sam's take: "it's not a silver bullet," but it scales across many brands and the leads are organic.

What we'd do differently

  • Don't auto-publish until you trust it. We've gone back and forth on this. Jordan's worry at 12:01: the model can hallucinate or misread the brand, and off-topic posts can make Google think your content is trash.
  • Target search demand, not your name.
  • You don't need the integration to start. Jordan said it works with WordPress too, or you can just paste the generated posts into your blog tool.

FAQ

How do you build an AI blog post generator for Webflow?

Jordan built it in Replit. Each brand gets its Webflow API key, collection field mapping and a list of topics. Claude and ChatGPT write the posts, DALL-E 3, OpenAI's newer image model and Flux make the images, and the tool publishes straight into the Webflow CMS on demand or on a daily schedule.

How do you automate SEO blog posts?

Pick topics people actually search for, not your brand name, using Google Search Console to see the terms. Our offsite business's top term was an offsite planning checklist, so we kept writing around that. Then generate and publish on a schedule.

Should you fully automate publishing AI blog posts?

Only once you trust the quality. Jordan warned that hallucinated or off-brand posts can hurt click-through and searchability, and we have gone back and forth between auto-publishing and publishing by hand.

Does AI-generated SEO content drive traffic?

For us, yes. Even brands we hadn't launched got inbound. NTRVSTA got traffic from Google and from LLMs like Perplexity and ChatGPT, with leads from Malaysia, Holland and the UK.
