Basics of AVA for sharing messages

AVA acts as a content writer who creates attention-grabbing summaries of your posts. AVA uses the post body as a reference for link and article posts and the post title as a reference for image and video posts. Your platform language determines the language of your sharing message.

When using AVA to generate sharing messages, you can:

• Select whether the message's tonality should be formal or informal. Our system prompts AVA to write formally or informally. The AI determines tonality based on its own settings.
• Select whether the message should be short or long. Our system prompts AVA to write a maximum of 120 characters or 5-10 sentences long.
• Choose whether to include emojis. Our system prompts AVA to include or exclude emojis. By default, emojis are deselected.

The system will save your selected options for future sharing messages, but you can always redefine them.

Use AVA to generate a sharing message

You can use AVA to generate sharing messages when creating and sharing content.

When creating content

You can use AVA to generate sharing messages during post creation for all social networks that allow sharing messages.

1. Start creating a post as you normally would by inputting content
2. Go to the Configure step > Select sharing networks and messages section
3. Select AI under a social network's sharing message field
4. Define the message's tonality, length, and use of emojis.
5. Select Generate to create the message
6. The sharing message will be automatically input into the field when it is generated. It may take up to 30 seconds for the message to generate.
7. Review the message.
8. Continue creating additional messages for any social network. Each sharing message field has its own AI button. If an existing sharing message exists in the field, it will be overwritten with your generated message.
9. Publish the post when you're done creating it.

When sharing content

You can only create sharing messages with AVA in the sharing modal for LinkedIn and X. For all other social networks, AI-generated sharing messages can only be created when creating the post.

2. Under the sharing message field, select AI. If an existing sharing message exists in the field, it will be overwritten with your generated message.
3. Define the message's tonality, length, and use of emojis.
4. Select Generate to create the message
5. The sharing message will be automatically input into the field when it is generated. It may take up to 30 seconds for the message to generate.
