CMS webhook to draft episode with editor approval in Slack

A publish webhook from your CMS triggers narration, but episodes over a length threshold are routed to Slack for a human go/no-go before the MP3 is released to S3.

What it does

Turns a CMS publish webhook into a narrated episode with a quality gate. Short posts auto-ship; long or flagged posts pause for an editor to approve or reject in Slack before the audio is published. This keeps a human in the loop exactly where mistakes are most expensive.

When to use it

Use it when most posts are safe to auto-narrate but long-form or sensitive pieces deserve a listen-through first. Good for teams that want automation speed without losing editorial control.

How it works

  1. 1Your CMS sends a publish webhook with the post body and word count.
  2. 2ElevenLabs narrates the article into a draft MP3 held in a staging S3 prefix.
  3. 3A length check branches the flow: under the threshold ships immediately; over it requests review.
  4. 4For flagged episodes, Slack posts an interactive Approve/Reject message with a preview link.
  5. 5On approval, the MP3 is promoted to the public feed prefix in S3.
