# AI for social media, with your voice intact Rewrite, shorten or expand your caption inside the editor. Adjust the tone, adapt it for the network you post on, and review every suggestion before you publish. ## Up to three suggestions instead of a blank page Select your text and have it rewritten. You get up to three versions and keep the one that sounds like you, or carry on working from there. - Rewrite, shorter or longer - Four tones: casual, professional, playful, persuasive - You decide what goes in ## One text, right for every platform Have your text adjusted for the network you post on, or translated into any of the five languages Crowdbird is available in. - Adjust for each network - Translate into German, English, Spanish, French and Brazilian Portuguese - Hashtag suggestions that fit the text ## What the AI sees We send your text or topic, an image only if you attach it, your saved style notes, and tone, platform and language. Analytics and contacts stay out. - No predictions about reach or follower growth - A monthly allowance per workspace - Always check suggestions yourself before you post ## How it works ### Write a draft Jot down a few notes or a first sentence in the editor. ### Pick a suggestion Have it rewritten, shortened, changed in tone or translated, and keep one version. ### Schedule it Put the finished post in the queue or publish it straight away. ## Goes well with ### [Scheduler](https://crowdbird.ai/en/features/scheduler) Schedule posts for every network you post on. ### [Analytics](https://crowdbird.ai/en/features/analytics) Which posts bring reach, comments and clicks. ### [DM automation](https://crowdbird.ai/en/features/dm-automation) Comments with a keyword turn into DMs with a link. ## Give the assistant details it can work with A useful brief separates facts from writing instructions. Before asking an AI social media assistant to improve a caption, tell it what the post shows, who it is for and what you want the reader to do. Add any wording that must stay unchanged. For Ceramico Studio (@ceramico.studio), a brief for a pottery video could contain: - Subject: a speckled mug being trimmed on the pottery wheel. - Audience: people interested in handmade ceramics and the making process. - Confirmed detail: trimming shapes the foot of the mug. - Voice: warm, plainspoken and specific, without exaggerated claims. - Action: ask readers which part of the process they want to see next. - Boundaries: do not add prices, availability, discounts or production times. That gives the assistant something concrete to edit. If the first suggestion feels too polished, ask for shorter sentences or less promotional wording instead of simply asking for something better. Your AI caption writer is a drafting aid, not a source of product facts. ## One ceramics caption, three different edits > Start with a factual draft: At Ceramico Studio, we’re trimming a speckled mug on the pottery wheel. This step shapes its foot. Which part of making a mug would you like to see next? Keep those facts stable when adapting the caption. Change the emphasis and pacing, not the product story or the promise attached to it. - **Instagram:** A closer look at the foot of a handmade mug. Here at Ceramico Studio, we’re trimming this speckled piece on the wheel to shape its base. Which step would you like to see next? #CeramicoStudio #HandmadeCeramics #PotteryProcess - **TikTok:** Shaping this mug’s foot, one trim at a time. What pottery step should we show next? #Pottery #Ceramics - **Facebook:** Here’s a look at how we shape the foot of a speckled mug at Ceramico Studio. The video shows the trimming stage on the pottery wheel. What would you like us to explain in our next process post? The Instagram version opens with the detail viewers should notice. The TikTok version gets to the action quickly, while Facebook adds a little context. These are editorial choices you can request, not rules that determine performance. ## Make targeted edits instead of starting over When a draft is nearly right, request one change at a time. Shorten a repetitive opening, expand an unclear process detail, or change a sales-heavy tone to something more conversational. You can also request a translation into English, German, Spanish, French or Brazilian Portuguese while keeping your product names unchanged. If you need a starting draft outside the editor, try the [free caption generator](https://crowdbird.ai/en/free-tools/caption-generator). Use the [bio generator](https://crowdbird.ai/en/free-tools/bio-generator) for profile wording and the [hashtag generator](https://crowdbird.ai/en/free-tools/hashtag-generator) to explore relevant tags. Instagram allows 5 hashtags per post in total (caption and first comment together), so narrow your ideas before publishing. ## Review the caption against the actual post An AI social media post generator can produce plausible wording that still needs correction. Read the suggestion beside your photo or video, not in isolation. The assistant does not predict reach or other performance numbers, and it does not publish on its own. 1. Verify every product detail, price and availability claim against your own information. 2. Remove descriptions of anything the media does not show. 3. Check that the opening makes sense without extra context. 4. Keep one clear action and confirm any destination link. 5. Read aloud for phrases you would never use. 6. Review the account-specific caption and preview before scheduling. Once the text and media agree, choose a publishing time in the [social media scheduler](https://crowdbird.ai/en/features/scheduler). Keep the approved wording specific to each account instead of copying an unfinished draft across every network. ## Connect Claude or ChatGPT to your workspace MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that AI assistants use to connect to other apps, and Crowdbird offers an MCP server. 1. In Settings, go to AI access and create a personal access token. Tick only the permissions it needs and choose how many days it stays valid. 2. Copy the token right away, as it is shown only once. 3. In your assistant’s connector settings, add Crowdbird as an MCP connection with the server address from AI access and the token. Your assistant can then: - list your connected channels and show the queue of planned posts - create drafts for your channels, with media from links, and submit them for approval - schedule a draft at a set time or in the next available slot - write caption variants, which uses your workspace’s monthly AI allowance - read post analytics and your link-in-bio views and clicks. Each token works in one workspace with only the permissions you ticked. The scheduling permission is unticked by default and works only for owners and admins. Without it, drafts wait for your review in Crowdbird. You can revoke a token at any time. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can AI make social media posts? Yes, AI can help write the caption for a social post, but you still supply the details and review the result. Crowdbird’s assistant works with text inside the post editor. It can rephrase a draft, adjust its length or tone, translate it, and suggest hashtags. You choose the final wording and decide when the post should publish. ### What is the best AI generator for social media posts? The best fit depends on whether you need caption drafts or help editing posts you already plan to publish. For a quick starting point, Crowdbird’s free caption generator gives you up to three drafts from a topic and tone. For ongoing editing, the assistant works inside the app’s post editor, alongside the accounts and posts you manage. ### Is there a free AI social media assistant? The AI assistant in the post editor comes with a paid plan, and you can try every paid plan free for 3 days. You add a payment method at the start, and if you cancel before the trial ends, nothing is charged. The free caption, bio and hashtag generators work without a login and cost nothing. ### Does the AI assistant publish posts automatically? No, asking the assistant to edit a caption does not publish your post. Its role is to suggest text changes, not approve them or choose a publishing time. After reviewing the caption and media, you can schedule the finished post. The scheduler then publishes at the time you set, not at a time selected by the assistant. ### Which languages can the assistant translate into? You can translate captions into English, German, Spanish, French and Brazilian Portuguese. Give the assistant context for product names, local expressions and any wording that should stay unchanged. Then read the translated caption for meaning and tone, not just grammar. If you cannot review the target language yourself, ask someone who can before publishing. ### Can the AI caption writer suggest Instagram hashtags? Yes, the assistant can suggest hashtags that fit your caption, and your final Instagram post should stay within 5 hashtags per post in total (caption and first comment together). Choose tags that describe the actual subject rather than accepting every suggestion. For a ceramics post, check that each tag matches the item, process or shop context shown in the media. ### Can AI predict how many views my post will get? No, Crowdbird’s assistant does not forecast views, reach or follower growth. It helps with wording, not performance predictions. To evaluate a published post, use the metrics available in analytics and compare posts with similar subjects or formats. Treat a clearer caption as an editorial improvement, not evidence that a particular result will follow. ### What can a connected AI assistant do in Crowdbird? A connected AI assistant can list your channels, show your queue, create drafts, write caption variants and read post analytics and link-in-bio stats. You connect Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant that supports MCP with a personal access token from AI access in Settings. It can only use the permissions you tick. Scheduling is off by default and only works for owners and admins. Without it, drafts wait in Crowdbird for your review. ### What does the assistant send to the AI? Your text or topic, an image only if you attach one, your saved style notes, and the tone, platform and language you picked. Analytics and contacts stay out. ### Which tones can I pick? Casual, professional, playful and persuasive. You can also ask for a shorter or longer version of the same caption.
