Hi everyone,
Hope this helps anyone looking to automate social media content creation straight from voice notes. I’m using this for internal team workflows and thought I’d share it with the community.
The Problem
We wanted a way for our team (especially non-writers) to quickly create social media posts just by sending a voice note in Slack.
Typing was slowing people down, and posts were inconsistent or delayed. We also didn’t want to jump between Slack, docs, scheduling tools, and image editors.
The Goal
Turn a Slack voice note into:
- Transcribed text
- Auto-generated social media content (LinkedIn + Instagram)
- Scheduled or instantly published posts
- Including image posts and Instagram carousels
The Setup (2-Part Scenario)
Part 1 – Voice Note to Content Drafts
This part listens to Slack voice messages, transcribes them, uses GPT to generate content, and stores the output in Airtable.
- Slack (watch voice notes)
- OpenAI (transcription + post generation)
- Airtable (store all drafts & metadata)

Part 2 – Post Approved Content to Social
Once the team changes the status in Airtable to “Approved”, this second scenario picks it up and posts:
- Text content → to LinkedIn
- Carousel → to Instagram via Placid
- Images → uploaded from Airtable or DALL·E
Image below:
Supported Post Types
- Text-only
- Single-image
- Multi-image carousels (for Instagram)
Bonus Tips
- We used Placid for generating carousels from arrays
- Airtable works great as a content staging + approval board
- GPT prompt includes tone guidance, platform formatting, and hashtags
Why I Love This
No more copy-pasting. No more “Hey can someone write this?”
Our team literally speaks an idea into Slack and 5 minutes later… the content is ready for review.
Let me know if you want help replicating this or modifying for Facebook/Twitter/X.
Cheers and happy making!
