Postloom – AI Post Generator and Publisher | Autonomous Post Publishing Engine

Description

Postloom is the most complete, autonomous AI publishing engine and editorial scheduling powerhouse for WordPress. It transforms your website into an enterprise-grade content studio that researches, writes, illustrates, categorizes, schedules, and cross-publishes high-ranking blog posts and social media campaigns on autopilot.

Whether you run a high-volume media publication, an affiliate blog network, a SaaS product knowledge base, or an e-commerce storefront, Postloom orchestrates the entire lifecycle: from knowledge ingestion and multi-model AI synthesis to Gutenberg block conversion, featured image generation, editorial calendar drag-and-drop scheduling, and automated broadcasting across 10+ social networks.

What Makes Postloom Unique?

1. Left-Sidebar Modern Admin Chrome: Seamless vertical navigation across all 15 studios and settings without horizontal scroll lag.
2. Interactive Drag-and-Drop Editorial Calendar: A unified visual calendar that seamlessly tracks, previews, reschedules, and manages both WordPress posts (Scheduled, Published, Draft, Pending) and automated AI generation pipelines. Features 3-dot dropdowns with instant View, Reschedule, and Delete capabilities.
3. Instant AI Post Creation Studio with One-Click Scheduling: Generate rich, human-grade articles on demand. Toggle between saving as an editorial draft, publishing live immediately, or scheduling directly on the Editorial Calendar with automated button switching (“Instant Generate and Schedule Post”).
4. Editorial Review Queue with Direct Calendar Scheduling: Safely inspect drafts before publication. One click approves and publishes immediately, moves to trash, or schedules for an exact future date and time on the Editorial Calendar.
5. Multi-Platform Social Auto-Publishing (10+ Networks): Automatically broadcasts newly published posts—including scheduled posts executed at their target date—to X (Twitter), Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Mastodon, Pinterest, Instagram Business, Threads, Medium, and Google Business Profile using platform-specific customizable templates.
6. Smart Weekly Slot Auto-Scheduler: Configure 7-day recurring publication slots (e.g., Monday 9:00 AM, Wednesday 2:00 PM) to ensure predictable, consistent publishing rhythms without manual intervention.
7. Missed Schedule Watchdog: Never lose traffic to WordPress WP-Cron failures. Postloom’s background watchdog automatically detects and rescues missed scheduled posts within minutes.
8. Product & Knowledge Base Ingestion: Ground your AI generation with domain knowledge. Upload PDF, DOCX, Markdown, or TXT documentation to ensure 100% factual accuracy with zero hallucinations.
9. Multi-AI Connectors with Native Core Support: Connect Google Gemini, OpenAI (GPT-4o), Anthropic Claude, DeepSeek, X.AI Grok, or OpenRouter. On WordPress 7.0+, natively hooks into WordPress core AI Connectors with custom direct API overrides.
10. Automated SEO & Gutenberg Block Formatting: Converts Markdown to native Gutenberg blocks (headings, paragraphs, bullet points, callout boxes, tables). Integrates natively with Yoast SEO, Rank Math, and All in One SEO metadata.

Privacy and Security

All scheduled jobs and knowledge base options are stored locally in your own WordPress database. Third-party AI providers are contacted only when you supply your API key and trigger content generation.

External Services

This plugin connects to external services only for the features you configure.

When the WordPress AI Client is available (WordPress 7.0+), Claude, OpenAI, and Gemini use it natively via WordPress Connectors (Settings > Connectors) with zero direct plugin-level API calls. Direct API keys are only used as a fallback when the WordPress AI Client is not detected, or when the user explicitly opts to provide their own key as an override. DeepSeek, Grok, and OpenRouter remain as direct integrations since they are not natively covered in WordPress core Connectors.

Note on Third-Party Libraries:
The admin panel uses React Router for in-app navigation. React Router embeds documentation URLs (reactrouter.com) in its library source code for developer reference. These are static strings — no HTTP requests are made to those URLs at runtime.

Source Code

All source files used to build the compiled admin panel assets are included in this plugin and are publicly available.

• build/index.js — Compiled from admin/src/ (React components, pages, and hooks)
• Build tool: @wordpress/scripts (standard WordPress React build toolchain)
• To rebuild: run npm install then npm run build from the plugin root
