AI Tools

PostClaw ships with AI generation for text, images, and video. The built-in monthly credits cover text generation. AI image and video generation are available on Pro and Business with your own API key (BYOK) — the Free plan has no AI image or video generation (text, scheduling, and publishing still work). If built-in media generation is enabled on your account, no key is needed.

Text Generation

The AI composer is available in every post editor. Click AI Generate or press Cmd+K.

Available actions:

• Draft from topic — describe your post idea, get a full caption
• Rewrite — adjust tone (professional, casual, witty, urgent)
• Shorten / Expand — fit platform character limits
• Hashtag suggestions — AI picks relevant tags for your niche
• Thread splitter — convert long content into a Twitter thread

Platform-aware generation

When multiple platforms are selected, the AI generates platform-specific variants automatically — a punchy tweet, a detailed LinkedIn post, and a casual Instagram caption from the same brief.

Image Generation

Go to Media → Generate Image or use the image button in the composer.

Image generation requires your own AI API key (BYOK) on Pro and Business, unless built-in generation is enabled on your account. The Free plan cannot generate AI images — upgrade to Pro or Business, then add your own API key. Add a key from any supported provider (for example OpenAI, Google Gemini, or Stability AI) under Settings → AI Agent → BYOK.

Free has no AI image generation. On Pro/Business you must add a BYOK key, unless built-in generation is enabled on your account.

API access for image generation is coming soon. See API Reference.

Video Generation

Navigate to Media → Generate Video.

• Short-form clips (5–30 seconds)
• Resolution: 720p or 1080p
• Output: MP4, ready for TikTok / Reels / Shorts

Video generation requires your own AI API key (BYOK) on Pro and Business, unless built-in generation is enabled on your account. The Free plan cannot generate AI video. Add a key under Settings → AI Agent → BYOK.

Video generation typically takes 30–90 seconds. You’ll receive an in-app notification when ready.

AI Agent

The AI Agent (configurable under Settings → AI Agent) can run autonomously:

• Monitor RSS feeds and draft posts automatically
• Apply your brand voice and style guidelines
• Queue for approval before publishing (recommended)
• Learn from which posts you approve vs. reject

{
  "personality": "Professional but approachable. Always include a CTA.",
  "tools_enabled": ["web_search", "image_gen", "hashtags"],
  "memory_config": { "enabled": true, "lookback_days": 30 }
}

BYOK (Bring Your Own Key)

Under Settings → AI Agent → BYOK, add your own API keys to bypass the monthly AI credit limit:

BYOK keys are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM). Usage billed directly by the provider — not through PostClaw.

Monthly AI Credits

AI usage is token-based — every AI generation (content, hashtags, workflows, automations) deducts credits by length, so roughly ~250 / ~4,000 / ~13,000 generations per month for Free / Pro / Business. Adding your own API key (BYOK) bypasses all AI credit limits. Track usage under Settings → AI Usage.
