The big idea

AlphaPost is a bridge. It connects three things:

Your Blogger blog.
Google Gemini AI (the writer).
GitHub Actions (the timer).

You add your keys once. After that, the tool writes and posts on your blog at the times you choose. You do not have to log in every day. The work happens by itself.

The full flow

Here is what happens, step by step:

Step 1: You sign up

Go to alphapost.io and make an account with your email. It is free. No credit card needed.

Step 2: You get a Gemini API key

You go to Google AI Studio and make a free Gemini API key. This is the key that lets the AI write posts for you.

We have a full guide on this here: Gemini Setup Guide.

Step 3: You get a Blogger API key and Blog ID

You go to Google Cloud Console and make a Blogger API key. You also copy your Blog ID from your Blogger settings.

Full guide here: Blogger Setup Guide.

Step 4: You connect your blog

In the AlphaPost dashboard, click "Connect Blog". Paste your Blog Name, Blog URL, Blog ID, and Blogger API key. Save.

AlphaPost will check that the key works and fetch your blog labels (categories).

Step 5: You authorize Blogger publishing

On the blog card, you will see a button that says "Authorize Blogger". Click it.

Google will ask: "Do you let AlphaPost manage your Blogger?". You click Allow.

After this, AlphaPost can post to your blog on your behalf. You only do this once.

Step 6: You create an order

Go to "Auto Post" and click "New Order". Fill in:

The blog you want to post on.
Your Gemini API key.
Connect your GitHub account (for scheduling).

Step 7: You configure the order

Go to "Start Posting". Click the order. Fill in:

The category (label) to use.
The prompt that tells the AI what to write about.
The schedule (daily 9am, every 6 hours, or a custom time).

Step 8: Test it with Run Now

Click "Run Now". The AI will write a fresh post and put it on your Blogger blog right away. This takes about 20 to 40 seconds.

Once it works, you know the auto run will work too.

Step 9: Sit back

The order is now active. GitHub Actions will run it on the schedule you set. New posts appear on your blog. You can check the history any time.

What the AI engine does

Our AI engine does more than just call Gemini. It also:

Adds your category context so the post fits your blog niche.
Tells Gemini to use simple words, not big AI words.
Removes em-dashes (the dash that looks like this) which AI loves but humans rarely use.
Removes phrases like "in conclusion" or "in today's fast-paced world".
Mixes short and long sentences so the writing feels real.
Picks a clear, simple title.
Picks a few tags that match the topic.

This is why AlphaPost posts read better than raw AI output.

How the schedule works

Each order has a cron schedule. A cron schedule is a way to say "run at 9 AM every day" or "run every 6 hours".

When you save an order, AlphaPost creates a workflow file in your GitHub account (called "alphapost-cron"). GitHub Actions then runs this workflow on your schedule. The workflow calls our engine, makes a post, and updates your blog.

Because the schedule runs on your GitHub account, you do not pay for our server time. And GitHub gives 2000 minutes of free Actions per month, which is more than enough.

What if you change your mind?

You can pause an order any time by clicking the pause button. You can also delete it.

You can disconnect Blogger access from the Blogger page.

You can delete your account by emailing us.
