About

This template installs an agent that watches what your niche is actually debating and turns the noise into a short list of content angles you can write about this week. It is built for founders, marketers, and operators who need a steady stream of relevant topics without spending hours reading forums and comment threads.

What it does

Every Thursday morning the agent pulls fresh discussions from around your niche, groups what it finds by theme rather than by individual post, and ranks the results. Each angle comes with a hook, a reason it matters right now, and the sources behind it. It also surfaces the angle nobody is talking about yet, the gap you can move on before everyone else does. The finished brief lands in your inbox and in a Google Doc you can share with your team.

How it works

The agent collects source material through Apify, then applies its angle research skill to sort and score what it gathers.

  • It rotates across multiple sources so the reading stays broad.
  • It groups candidates by theme, not by post, so one big conversation does not flood the list.
  • It uses a normalized dedup key rather than titles alone, so near duplicates get merged.
  • It scores each angle on two axes to decide what rises to the top.

Results are written to a Google Doc and sent through Gmail, so the weekly angles arrive where you already work. The schedule runs on its own, so a new set of ideas is waiting for you at the start of each week without any manual prompting.

angle-research

Load at every run, from Phase 4 onward. Carries the source rotation, how candidates are grouped by theme rather than by post, the normalised dedup key and why titles are not enough, the two-axis score where relevance can veto, the outlier rule that is the point of the agent, and the three table schemas to recreate if a table is missing.

Frequently asked questions

Which accounts do I need to connect?

Three: Apify, Gmail, and Google Docs. Apify collects the discussions from around your niche, Google Docs holds the finished brief, and Gmail delivers it to your inbox. Setup takes about five minutes.

How often does it run?

Once a week, every Thursday at 8 in the morning. The schedule runs on its own, so a fresh set of ranked angles is waiting at the start of each week without any manual prompting.

What do I actually receive each week?

A short list of ranked content angles, each with a hook, a reason it matters right now, and the sources behind it. It also surfaces the angle nobody is covering yet. The brief arrives in your Gmail inbox and in a Google Doc you can share with your team.

How does it decide which angles rise to the top?

It groups candidates by theme rather than by individual post, so one big conversation does not flood the list, then scores each angle on two axes to rank them. A normalized dedup key merges near duplicates instead of relying on titles alone.

Does it write the content for me?

No. The agent finds and ranks the angles, giving you a hook, a reason, and sources for each. Writing the actual posts or articles is left to you.

Where does it pull discussions from?

It collects source material through Apify and rotates across multiple sources so the reading stays broad rather than tied to a single site or thread. This keeps the weekly angle list drawn from across your niche.
