Siesta: a post planner that tells you when to go back to sleep

Description and use

Siesta is a local app that analyzes posting history, assesses predictive signal, and, if present, drafts a week of posts, keeping data on the user’s machine.

Problem

Content creators lack reliable tools to predict if their posting history can guide future post timing and quality, often leading to wasted effort.

Outcome

Siesta provides an honest signal assessment and, when possible, a ready‑to‑post week of content, reducing time spent on trial‑and‑error scheduling.

Workflow

• Upload post history as CSV or pull from DEV API
• Siesta trains logistic regression on older posts and tests on newest 20%
• Displays ROC AUC with 95% bootstrap range and lift metrics
• If range includes coin flip, verdict is "no signal" and drafts remain unranked
• If signal, user provides a brief (typed or from git/notes)
• Siesta drafts a week of posts with titles, tags, outlines, and scores
• Drafts below "Strong" score are revised once; revised draft kept only if score improves

Evidence

Siesta is a small local app that plans next week's posts while you sleep, and tells you honestly when your own history can't help.

Source

It trains a small logistic regression on your older posts, tests it on your newest 20%, and reports ranking skill (ROC AUC) with a 95% bootstrap range.

If that range includes a coin flip, the verdict is "no signal"

Source

If there is a signal, you give it a brief (typed, or read from your recent git commits or a notes file) and it drafts a week of posts with titles, tags and outlines.

Source

Siesta runs on your own computer, so there is no hosted link. I kept it local on purpose: your history and scores never leave the machine.

One press of "Draft my week" produces a full week of drafts, each already scored, slotted onto a day and hour, and revised once if it wasn't Strong.
