Content Automations

Content Automations automatically create content when new opportunities match your criteria. Currently, automations work with content opportunities discovered through your monitoring rules.

​

What Are Automations?

Automations are rules that:

• Monitor new content opportunities
• Filter based on your criteria
• Generate specified content types automatically

Example: “When a new opportunity appears from my monitoring rules, automatically create a blog post.”

​

Current Automation Capability

​

New Content Opportunity Automation

The currently available automation type responds to new content opportunities from your monitoring rules.

How it works:

1. Your monitoring rules discover new content
2. Automation checks if the opportunity matches your filters
3. Automatically generates your selected content types
4. Content appears in your Content Library

Example Use Cases:

• Auto-generate blog posts from competitor content
• Create social media content from viral TikToks
• Transform YouTube videos into written content

​

Creating an Automation

​

Step 1: Basic Information

Provide a name and description for your automation to keep track of what it does.

​

Step 2: Configure Trigger

Current trigger: New Content Opportunity

Filter Options:

• Opportunity Types: Choose between New Content and/or Viral Content
• Monitoring Rules: Select specific sources to monitor
• Additional Filters: Set up custom criteria (if needed)

​

Step 3: Select Output Types

Choose which content types to generate automatically:

• Blog Post: SEO-optimized articles with title and meta description
• LinkedIn Posts: 3 professional posts for LinkedIn
• Tweets: 5 engaging tweets without hashtags

Credit Usage: Each output type shows its credit cost. The total credits per execution are displayed.

​

Step 4: Review and Activate

Review your automation settings:

• Trigger configuration
• Selected outputs
• Total credits per run
• Enable/disable the automation

​

Automation Management

​

Dashboard View

The automations page shows:

• Automation name and description
• Active/paused status (toggle to control)
• Execution statistics
• Credits used
• Quick actions (edit, delete)

​

Enable/Disable

Use the toggle switch to:

• Pause automations temporarily
• Resume when ready
• Control credit usage

​

Best Practices

​

1. Start with One

Create a single automation and monitor its performance before adding more.

​

2. Choose Relevant Sources

Only automate content from monitoring rules that consistently provide good opportunities.

​

3. Monitor Credit Usage

Each automation shows credits per execution. Calculate potential monthly usage:

• Credits per run × Expected opportunities per month

​

4. Review Generated Content

Check your Content Library regularly to ensure quality and make adjustments.

​

5. Refine Filters

If getting irrelevant content, tighten your opportunity type and source filters.
