Workflow name
Transform video transcripts into multi-platform social media posts with Groq AI

Overview

This workflow automates the process of turning your video transcripts into platform-specific social media posts using AI. It reads any uploaded transcript file, analyzes the text, and automatically generates full-length, engaging posts with image prompts for Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Reddit, and WhatsApp.

Perfect for creators, marketers, and automation builders who want to repurpose long-form content into viral posts, all in one click.

How it Works

  • The Manual Trigger starts the workflow.

  • The Read Binary File node imports your video transcript (TXT format).

  • The Move Binary Data and Set nodes convert it into a text string for processing.

  • The AI Agent (LangChain) powered by Groq AI analyzes the transcript and generates human-like social media posts with realistic image prompts.

  • The Function Node parses and structures the output by platform.

  • The Google Sheets Node automatically saves all content — ready for scheduling or publishing.

  • The SerpAPI Integration enhances contextual awareness by referencing real-time search trends.

Set Up Steps

  • Setting up this workflow typically takes 5–10 minutes.
  • Connect your Google Sheets account (OAuth2).
  • Connect your Groq AI and SerpAPI credentials.
  • Upload your transcript file (e.g., from YouTube or podcast).
  • Run the workflow to instantly generate platform-specific posts and prompts.
  • View all results automatically saved in Google Sheets.
  • Detailed instructions are included as sticky notes inside the workflow.

Use Cases

  • Turn YouTube videos or podcasts into multi-platform social content
  • Auto-generate daily social posts using transcripts
  • Build AI-powered repurposing systems for agencies or creators
  • Save creative teams hours of manual copywriting work

Requirements

  • n8n account (self-hosted or cloud)
  • Groq AI API Key
  • SerpAPI Key (for optional trend enhancement)
  • Google Sheets connection
