AI OmniBlocks

What OmniBlocks are in Aimogen Pro, how a workflow of chained blocks executes, and when to reach for one instead of a bulk rule.

OmniBlocks are Aimogen Pro workflow builder. A workflow is an ordered list of blocks; each block does one thing and publishes its result as a placeholder that later blocks can use.

Fifty-seven block types are available, covering AI generation, scraping, product data, media, logic, triggers and output.

When to use an OmniBlock#

The bulk creators implement one fixed pipeline very well. OmniBlocks exist for everything else.

SituationTool
Articles from a keyword listBulk creator
Scrape three competitor pages, compare them, publish a comparisonOmniBlock
Read an RSS feed, summarise each item, post to a social networkOmniBlock
Take a webhook from an external system and create a productOmniBlock
Generate a report every Monday and email itOmniBlock
Run a workflow when a chatbot user asks for somethingOmniBlock

If you can describe the job as a sequence of steps with data flowing between them, it is an OmniBlock.

How a workflow executes#

  1. Blocks run in order, top to bottom.
  2. Each block writes its output into a placeholder named after its type and its block ID.
  3. Later blocks reference earlier output through those placeholders.
  4. Logic blocks can skip, jump or stop.
  5. Output blocks save a post, send an email, call a webhook or post to a social network.

A minimal four-block workflow — the default template shipped with the plugin:

#BlockDoes
1ai_textWrites a title for %%keyword%%
2ai_textWrites an article for %%keyword%%
3dalle_ai_imageGenerates a featured image
4save_postPublishes, using %%ai_text_1%% as the title, %%ai_text_2%% as the content and %%dalle_image_3%% as the featured image

Default templates#

A set of example workflows is imported on first activation, from the plugin defaults/ folder. They are ordinary editable workflows — start from one rather than a blank canvas.

Bulk actions on the OmniBlocks list let you enable, disable, duplicate or delete several at once.
