Step 1: Create a new post
The first step to create AI Caption Generator is to create your post. AI Caption Generator are available on all post types!

You can also create a new post directly within the calendar by pressing the 'new post' button on the day you'd like to schedule the post for!
Step 2: Press the AI Generator button located under the caption text editor
Once your post has been created, press the ‘AI Caption Generator’ button located underneath the captions text editor.
Step 3: Enter what your post is about, keywords and select a tone for your post
Input the context for what your post will be about, along with any relevant keywords you’d like to use to help tailor the post. To add multiple keywords, separate each keyword with a comma.
Finally, you can choose from one of nine types of tone, or add a custom tone by typing it in to help make your post exactly how you’d like it to be.
Once your inputs have been added to the generator, press ‘Generate Captions’ to generate your responses!
Step 4: Add one of the caption suggestion to your post, or click regenerate to get new responses
The generator will display 2 caption suggestions at a time based on the provided inputs. If you’d like to add one of them to your post, press the ‘Add to Post’ button!
If you’d like to try regenerating some more responses, you can press ‘regenerate’ with the same inputs to get different responses.
