- What are the limits? → Facebook Limitations
Option 1: Create manually (Calendar or Posts)
A) Create a post in the Calendar
You can create posts directly in the Calendar.
- Month view: hover over a day → plus (+)
- Week view: hover over a day → Create post
The post editor then opens.
B) Create a post in "Posts"
Alternatively, go to the Posts section and click Create post in the top right.
In the post editor (for both options)
- Give your post a title.
- Select Facebook as the platform.
- Choose the post type (e.g. Reel, photo, or Story – depending on the available options).
- Upload media.
- Write the caption (yourself or with AI support).
- (Optional) Add labels.
- (Optional, depending on your role) Request approvals.
- Schedule date & time or save as a draft.
Option 2: With the AI Studio (AI Crew)
In the AI Studio, you share your idea directly with the AI Crew and have it turn into a post draft in seconds.
You typically get:
- caption suggestions that match your goals
- phrasing that fits your brand voice
- variations (e.g. different hooks/CTAs)
Then you transfer the draft into a post and schedule it or submit it for approval (depending on your role).
