Blog Automation Pipeline — Engineering Case Study
N8N / AI Workflow Project · by Yatharth Lakhera
End-to-end blog automation pipeline: Slack trigger → AI transcription → Anthropic content generation → WordPress publishing, all orchestrated with N8N.
The challenge
Publishing technical blog posts consistently is a 4+ hour manual workflow — drafting, editing, formatting, and publishing each piece. The cost of context-switching between tools (Slack notes, drafts, WordPress) was killing the cadence of content shipping.
The build
Built a 12+ node N8N workflow that triggers from a Slack voice/audio note. The pipeline transcribes audio, runs Anthropic Claude to expand and structure the content into long-form posts, then drafts and publishes to WordPress automatically. Every run is logged to Google Sheets for content tracking and future iteration.
Impact
- ~4 hours saved per published post — voice memo to live draft in minutes
- 12+ orchestrated nodes covering transcription, generation, publishing, and logging
- Zero context-switching: a single Slack message kicks off the entire pipeline
Technologies: N8N, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, WordPress, Slack, Google Sheets
