Post ideas from your material

Use Post ideas on Home, or open Post ideas, when you have material but want help choosing what to post. It suggests five ideas in a mix of carousels, image posts, text posts, and polls. Signed-in Home starts with Post ideas; choose Carousel when you want to make a deck directly. Links carrying a carousel brief, template, or Brand Kit choice open the Carousel composer.

Draft your ideas

1. Paste your notes, a public article link, or a short idea.
2. Choose the post formats you want in the mix.
3. Choose who the posts are for and what you want readers to do next. Use a suggested answer or write your own.
4. Choose Quick, Standard, or Deep for the carousel depth.
5. Enter your website for your brand, or pick a look.
6. Review the ideas in their LinkedIn-style previews. Tick the ones you want to make. On a carousel card, you can change the suggested design or cover photo when those choices are available.

While ideas are being drafted, the page shows Writing your post ideas and preview outlines for the selected formats. Wait for the suggestions before choosing posts to make.

More ideas adds different angles from the same material. You can also change the material and draft a new set. Edited notes stay available when you leave and return in the same browser, provided browser storage is available.

Drafting ideas uses no credits. Daily limits apply, and guests may be asked to complete a security check or create an account to continue.

Make the selected posts

Choose Make posts with the number you have ticked. Guests create an account or sign in first; keep the same browser and allow browser storage so your choices can return after sign-in. Your email must be confirmed before posts can be made.

Carousels cost 30 credits each and follow the Free account's limit of two Pro-template carousels a day. Text, image, and poll drafts made through Post ideas use no credits. Check the total shown before making them. These prices apply to this workflow; other tools and For you can have different costs.

SlideDrift uses your existing default Brand Kit when you have one. Otherwise it tries to create a kit from the website or look you chose, within your plan limit. If the website cannot be read, it uses a preset look and tells you what happened.

The selected posts are saved as drafts without a day or posting time. Carousels may still show Writing while generation finishes. A refused or failed idea shows Not made with its reason; review that message before trying again.

Review and schedule

Choose Keep as drafts to return to Home, or Schedule drafts to open the Drafts panel in Schedule. Review the words, images, poll options, and completed carousel before choosing an account and time.

Making drafts does not publish them. Connecting LinkedIn and scheduling require a paid plan or an active trial. See LinkedIn scheduling for account limits and publishing costs.

For weekly news and followed articles instead of your own material, use For you.
