LinkedIn Agent
Grounded posts, not generic filler
Drafts LinkedIn posts using an LLM prompted with your real project context — your product, positioning, and what you've actually told it — formatted for how LinkedIn is actually read, not as a generic blog snippet.
Free, self-hosted · Bring your own LLM key
Without vs. with Marlo
Why teams switch to a grounded LinkedIn agent
Without Marlo
- Staring at a blank compose box every week
- Generic AI drafts that read like an ad, not a founder
- Posts that get buried because line one doesn't hook anyone
- Fabricated stats or quotes that never happened
- $1,500–$5,000+/mo for a ghostwriter or social agency
With Marlo LinkedIn Agent
- Drafts grounded in your real project context, not filler
- Every draft formatted for how LinkedIn is actually read
- Product mentioned at most once — never a hard sell
- No invented stats, names, or quotes, ever
- Self-hosted — your own LLM key, no monthly retainer
Definition
What the LinkedIn Agent actually does
The agent drafts posts with an LLM using your real project context — not boilerplate or generic marketing copy — and formats every draft specifically for how LinkedIn is read: 150–300 words, a hook in line one, short paragraphs with generous line breaks, and 0–3 hashtags at most.
The product gets mentioned at most once, and only if it's directly relevant to the point being made. It's explicitly instructed not to fabricate statistics, customer names, or quotes it wasn't actually given — if it doesn't know it, it doesn't say it.
How it works
How the LinkedIn Agent Drafts a Post
Set it up once. Draft a fresh post any time you want.
Draft from your real project context
An LLM writes the post using your product, positioning, and what you've actually told it — not generic boilerplate. Example shown above, illustrative not live data.
Formatted for how LinkedIn is read
A hook in line one, short scannable paragraphs, and 0–3 hashtags at most — every draft checked against the same format rules.
You copy-paste and post it yourself
There's no auto-publish today. Every draft is meant to be reviewed by you, then copy-pasted and posted on your own account.
Capabilities
What it actually does
Every rule below is a real formatting constraint the agent is prompted with — not a marketing checklist.
150–300 words
Long enough to make a real point, short enough to actually get read. No sprawling essays.
A hook in line one
LinkedIn truncates posts after about two lines on mobile, so the first line is written to earn the click to "see more" — not buried under a preamble.
Short paragraphs, generous line breaks
Written for the LinkedIn feed, not a document — one or two sentences per line, scannable at a glance.
0–3 hashtags, never more
A few relevant tags when they help discovery. No hashtag walls at the bottom of the post.
No invented stats, names, or quotes
The agent is explicitly instructed not to fabricate statistics, customer names, or quotes it wasn't actually given. If it doesn't know it, it doesn't say it.
Reads like a founder, not an ad
The product gets mentioned at most once, and only if it's directly relevant to the point being made. Every draft ends with a genuine question or takeaway instead of a pitch.
Draft-only, reviewed by you
No auto-publish. Every draft is meant to be copy-pasted and posted by you, on your own account, after you've reviewed it.

Self-hosted and open-source vs. $29–$99/mo tools or a $1,500–$5,000+/mo social agency.
Why LinkedIn Agent?
Founders Build Audiences One Post at a Time.
Consistent, grounded posting is one of the highest-leverage distribution channels a founder has — and the easiest to let slip. The LinkedIn Agent keeps drafts flowing so you don't have to stare at a blank compose box every week.

Monthly Cost, Self-Hosted
Draft-only, today — publishing is on the roadmap
There's no real LinkedIn posting API wired up yet — LinkedIn's API access is notoriously restrictive, so this agent doesn't auto-publish anything. Every draft is meant to be copy-pasted and posted by you, on your own account, after you've reviewed it. Real LinkedIn publishing is planned, not live — it sits on the integrations roadmap rather than being claimed as available today.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES
What a marketing system like this looks like in practice
Marlo is early — these are illustrative scenarios showing what lean teams could achieve, not real customer results (yet).
