The Scenario
You're a content creator who runs your own newsletter and Twitter/X presence. You have 25 draft posts sitting in a Google Sheet — caption in column A, scheduled date in column B. The posts are written and approved. What they're missing is hashtags, placed naturally inside the text, the way a human would write them rather than dumped in a block at the end.
Your followers can tell the difference. You can tell the difference. And manually rewriting 25 posts to insert hashtags at the right spots is the kind of task that sounds quick until you actually start.
The bad version:
- Open each draft, read it carefully, decide where a hashtag fits, insert it, check that the sentence still reads naturally, move to the next post. Twenty-five times.
- Copy each caption into RiteKit's auto-hashtag interface, wait for the enhanced version, copy the result back into the sheet. Twenty-five tabs open. Twenty-five pastes.
- Just append the hashtags at the end of every post in a lump, because at least that's fast, knowing it's not how you actually want it to look.
You've been writing this content. You're not supposed to be reformatting it too. And every minute spent on hashtag placement is a minute not spent on next week's drafts.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads the draft posts in column A and, through its built-in RiteKit integration, calls the auto-hashtag API on each one — which inserts hashtags at natural positions in the text — and writes the enhanced version into column B.
For each draft post in column A, call RiteKit auto-hashtag to insert relevant hashtags into the text and write the enhanced version into column B. Leave column A unchanged.
What You Get
- Column B: Each post with hashtags injected inline at natural positions — mid-sentence or end-of-sentence, the way RiteKit places them based on context
- Column A: The original draft, untouched, so you can compare before and after
- Rows where column A is blank get a blank in column B — no error entries
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Some drafts already have a hashtag or two — I don't want RiteKit to double up
For each post in column A, if the text already contains a # character, pass it to RiteKit auto-hashtag and write the result to column B — RiteKit will add more without duplicating existing tags. For posts with no # character, also call auto-hashtag and write to column B. Add a note in column C: "had existing hashtags" or "no existing hashtags" so I can review.
The posts are written for two different voices — one for Twitter/X (punchy, short) and one for LinkedIn (longer, professional) — and I need the hashtag style to match
For each row, check the platform in column C. For rows marked "Twitter", call RiteKit auto-hashtag on the text in column A and write the result to column B — Twitter posts can take 2-3 hashtags inline. For rows marked "LinkedIn", also call auto-hashtag but keep only 1-2 of the inserted hashtags and write the trimmed result to column B. Note in column D how many hashtags were injected.
The drafts live on two tabs — "Week 1" and "Week 2" — and I need both processed before the editorial review
On the "Week 1" tab, call RiteKit auto-hashtag for each post in column A and write the enhanced text to column B. Skip rows where column B already has content. Then do the same for the "Week 2" tab. After both tabs are processed, add a note in cell A1 of each tab with the count of posts enhanced.
I want to auto-hashtag every post AND flag any posts that came back with zero hashtags added — so I can review them manually
For each draft in column A, call RiteKit auto-hashtag and write the result to column B. Then compare column A and column B for each row — if no # character was added (column A and column B have no new # in B), write "REVIEW: no hashtags added" in column C. For posts where hashtags were added, write the count of new # characters in column C.
One prompt handles the enrichment and the quality gate at the same time.
