How Posty works

Last updated: August 15, 2026

Posty is an AI social media scheduler. Connect your accounts, chat naturally, and Posty writes captions, publishes, or schedules posts for you.

1. Connect your accounts

Go to Accounts in the dashboard and tap Connect next to a platform. You authorize via OAuth β€” Posty never asks for your Instagram or TikTok password.

You can connect multiple platforms. Posty only uses tokens when you ask it to publish or schedule.

2. Chat with Posty

Open the dashboard and use the chat at the bottom. Type or use the microphone 🎀.

Attach πŸ“Ž a photo or video before publishing. Posty can auto-generate captions β€” normal or Gen-Z style β€” without asking questions.

  • "post on instagram" β€” publish now with auto caption
  • "write a gen z caption and post on ig" β€” short caption + publish
  • "schedule tomorrow at 6pm on youtube" β€” save to calendar
  • "post story on facebook" β€” Facebook Page story
  • "post reel on instagram" β€” reel (requires video πŸ“Ž)

3. Publish now or schedule

Publishing is immediate: Posty sends content to the chosen platform and shows per-platform results.

Scheduling saves to your calendar (Upcoming posts). At the set time, an automatic job publishes β€” you don't need to be online.

4. What you can post on each platform

Below: supported content types, required media, and example chat commands.
