How did you prevent AI hallucination or brand damage?

Every generated post was buffered into a strict state machine with human-in-the-loop Slack approval buttons before dispatch.

Heurist AI: Human-in-the-Loop Content Autopilot Agents

Executive Summary

Heurist AI is a decentralized AI cloud platform. The challenge was maintaining constant, authoritative technical engagement across social media channels (X and LinkedIn) without hiring an expensive editorial team.

The Core Bottleneck

Purely autonomous AI posting tools frequently hallucinate, repeat stale templates, or cause brand embarrassment. Conversely, manual drafting creates severe content bottlenecks and irregular posting cadences.

How I Built It

State Machine Logic: Structured workflows inside n8n with deterministic states (DRAFTED, FORMATTED, AWAITING_REVIEW, APPROVED, DISPATCHED).
Error Recovery & Circuit Breakers: Built retry loops with exponential backoff for LLM rate limits and API timeouts.
Interactive Approval Gate: Dispatched formatted previews with 1-click Approve/Edit/Reject buttons into a dedicated Slack channel.
Distribution Automation: Routed approved payloads to X (Twitter) API v2 and LinkedIn marketing endpoints with native media attachments.

Verified Results

Maintained regular top-of-funnel technical presence across X and LinkedIn without a dedicated content department.
Designed agent workflows with resilient state-machine logic, retries, and comprehensive error handling.
Ensured 100% of outbound social posts passed through human editorial verification before publishing.

What I Would Do Differently
