Quickly create a post from media
Quickly create a post from media
If you already have media (image/video), the AI Studio is the fastest way to a post draft. You upload media, optionally add context – and the AI Crew turns it into text suggestions.
Where do I find this?
- Open the AI Studio.
- Start a new prompt/chat with the AI Crew.
- Add your media (upload).
Step by step: create a post from media
1) Upload media
- Add media via upload (image/video).
- Make sure the media fits the intended format (e.g. 9:16 vs. 1:1).
2) Set the platform(s)
Name the platform(s) you need the post for (e.g. Instagram + LinkedIn).
This helps the AI Crew decide better:
- how long the text should be
- which structure fits
- which CTA makes sense
3) Add context (optional, but recommended)
In the AI Studio, you can briefly note what matters when interpreting the media.
Good examples:
- "Audience: beginners, tone: casual, goal: comments"
- "Please add a CTA: save and share with your team"
- "Topic: social media strategy for small teams"
4) Have variants generated
Ask for 2–3 variants, e.g.:
- different hooks
- different CTA options
- possibly one version per platform
5) Adopt the draft and schedule it
Then turn the draft into a post and schedule it or send it for approval (depending on your role).
6) Create posts manually and let AI support you
You can create posts manually:
- in Posts: top right, click Create post
- in the Calendar:
- Month view: hover → plus (+)
- Week view: hover → Create post
💡 Even when creating manually: If you create a post in Posts or in the Calendar, you can still use the AI Crew to write captions or improve existing texts (e.g. shorten/lengthen, adjust the tone, sharpen the CTA).
Why is "media first" so powerful?
- You get a usable first draft faster.
- The AI Crew uses media + context as its foundation.
- You save time on structuring (hook → key point → CTA).
Best practices
- Use the AI Studio for a quick start, but always add the final polish:
- check facts
- check tone/brand voice
- check the CTA
- review hashtags/emojis (if used)
- Provide at least 1–2 sentences of context if the media content isn't self-explanatory.
