Login

Log into Blotato:

Once you're in, you'll be taken to the dashboard where you can start creating content.


Add Source

To generate content, provide Blotato with any topic or "source" of information:

✅ Website or article

✅ YouTube video

✅ TikTok video

✅ Podcast

✅ Audio file

✅ PDF

✅ Perplexity AI prompt

✅ Paste in any text

Let's say you want to create social media posts based on a YouTube video:

1. Copy the YouTube video link

3. In blotato, click "+ Add Source" > "Youtube" > paste the link

4. Click "Add"


Select Platforms

Choose which platforms to make posts. Blotato directly integrates with:

✅ Instagram

✅ LinkedIn

✅ Facebook

✅ Threads

✅ TikTok

✅ Twitter

✅ Bluesky

✅ Youtube

✅ Pinterest

Select 5 platforms click "Generate Posts".


Make Your First 5 Social Media Posts

Blotato will start making drafts for each platform based on your source(s).

Once generated, edit the draft posts to match your voice and brand.

Use the AI writer on the right side for quick edits and brainstorming, such as:

  • Remove unnecessary formatting (like asterisks or extra spaces).

  • Insert a direct quote from the source (especially useful for YouTube videos).

  • Research 30 viral hooks related to my post.

  • Regenerate drafts to get many variations.


Add Images or Videos

Visuals often boost engagement, and Blotato makes it easy to add them. Platforms like Tiktok, Instagram, and Youtube REQUIRE your post to have images/videos.

You can:

✅ Upload your own images or videos.

✅ Generate AI-powered images or videos.

Click "Add Media" to add images or videos:

If you want an eye-catching image for your LinkedIn post, click "Generate Realistic Image", and Blotato will make one in a few moments. If you don’t like the first result, click "Regenerate" to get a new variation or click "Edit Prompt" to edit the AI image prompt.


Publish or Schedule Your Posts

Once you're satisfied with your 5 drafts, it’s time to publish them!

You have multiple publishing options:

✅ Publish Now: Post immediately to your selected platform.

✅ Schedule for Later: Choose a specific date and time for publication.

✅ Next Free Slot: Add the post to your platform's next free slot in your content calendar.

You will also need to select which social media accounts you want to post to.

Once published, your posts move to the "Published Posts" screen, where you can track them.


Saved Draft Posts

All draft posts are automatically saved by Blotato.

Draft posts also sync across devices, so you can start writing a post on your phone, then finish it later on your laptop.

To create a new draft post, click "+ Add Post".


Bonus Tips for Better Content Quality

  • Personalize Your Posts: AI-generated content is a great starting point, but adding your own insights, experiences, and opinions makes your content way more authentic and stand out.

  • Use Platform-Specific Formatting: LinkeiIn posts may benefit from bullet points, while Instagram captions should include engaging hooks and hashtags. Experiment a lot and observe what the top creators in your industry are having success with.

  • Experiment With Different Styles: If a draft post doesn’t feel right, regenerate it using different prompts to see what works best. I personally generate at least 5 drafts, then choose the best one and start tweaking it.
