AI Content overview
Generate promotional posts, scripts, and reviews with the Content Writer and your library.
Pointerly AI Content turns product URLs, deals, and campaign context into ready-to-edit captions, video scripts, stories, carousels, threads, reviews, and campaign copy. Creators work in a split Content Writer workspace; brands get campaign- and product-focused types instead of everyday social posts.
Generation uses your team’s AI credits. When credits run out, an Out of AI credits banner appears above the writer until you add more from Billing.
What you'll do
- Open the AI Content workspace for your team type (creator or brand)
- Understand platforms, content types, and the library on the right
- Edit, regenerate, save as a template, or delete saved pieces
Before you start
- You are signed in to the correct team
- Your plan includes AI Content and you have remaining AI credits
- Optional: a tracked link, deal, or product URL to ground the copy

Concepts
| Concept | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Content Writer | Chat-style agent panel that generates copy for your role (creator or brand) |
| Library | Saved generations you can filter by platform and content type |
| Platform | Destination network (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, X, Facebook, Telegram, Pinterest, Threads) with its own length limits |
| Content type | Shape of the piece: Post, Video Script, Story, Carousel, Thread, Campaign, Review |
| Style / context | Optional style profile, product URL, product description, link, deal, or campaign brief |
| Variations | Multiple drafts from one run when you ask for more than one |
Where things live
- Go to Dashboard → AI Content (or your team’s Content entry in the sidebar).
- On desktop, the left (resizable) panel is the Content Writer; the right panel is filters + your library.
- On mobile, the library fills the screen; tap Generate to open the writer in a bottom drawer titled Content Writer.

Typical workflow
- Confirm the team has AI credits (banner should be clear).
- In the writer, choose a platform and content type that the platform supports.
- Add a product URL and/or short product or context note (and a link/deal when relevant).
- Generate; review variations in the library.
- Edit wording, Generate again with fresh context, Save as template, or Delete.

Tips
- Match content type to the platform: e.g. Threads for X, video scripts for TikTok/YouTube, carousels where the platform allows them.
- Brands primarily use Campaign and Review types; creator workspaces expose the full social set.
- Video scripts support duration and main-point controls (15s through longer YouTube-style lengths).
- The browser extension can also generate AI content from product pages using the same team credits—see Browser extension.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Likely cause | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| Out of AI credits banner | Plan credit meter empty | Open Billing → add AI credits / upgrade |
| Generate stays disabled | Missing URL and context | Provide a product URL or a short description |
| Wrong tone or length | Platform / type mismatch | Switch platform or content type, then regenerate |
| Empty library | Nothing saved yet, or filters too narrow | Clear platform/type filters; generate once |
