What it does

Turns every new long-form article into a listenable audio version, but never auto-publishes it. A reviewer hears the narration in Slack and approves with one click before the file is released.

When to use it

Use it when your blog ships substantial pieces and you want podcast-style audio, but voice quality and pronunciation matter enough that a human should sign off before listeners hear it.

How it works

  1. 1A CMS webhook fires when a post crosses a word-count threshold for long-form.
  2. 2An agent strips HTML, expands abbreviations, and rewrites the article into a natural spoken script (removing captions, footnotes, and code blocks).
  3. 3ElevenLabs renders the script to an MP3 with your brand voice.
  4. 4The draft audio is posted to a Slack review channel with the title, runtime, and approve/reject buttons.
  5. 5On approve, the MP3 is written to a public Dropbox folder and the share link is returned; on reject the run stops and pings the author.
