Revnu writes posts for LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Reddit and Hacker News, then sends you the draft and a one-tap share link. The link opens that platform with your post ready, and you publish it. It can also write posts for your Google Business Profile, which you paste in yourself.

You publish each post yourself, so it goes out from your own account at the moment you choose.

## How do I get a post written?

### 1. Ask for a post

Ask in chat, in iMessage, Slack or the dashboard. For example: "write an X post about the launch" or "draft a Show HN for this". Revnu reads your own best posts first, so the draft sounds like you and doesn't announce something you already announced.

### 2. Read the draft

Ask for changes in plain words: "shorter", "less salesy", "lead with the number".

### 3. Tap the share link and post

Revnu sends the share link as a separate message. Tap it, check the post, and press Post.

### 4. Tell Revnu it's live

Paste the live link. Revnu never says a post went out until you confirm. With the link it looks at the public post later and tells you how it's doing, wherever the site lets it read.

Already have something to start from? Paste it. A TikTok script, a talk outline or a rough idea works: "turn this into an X post: …". Paste the words rather than a TikTok link, and Revnu works from those.

Posting in a language other than English? See [talk to Revnu](https://revnu.com/docs/talk-to-revnu.md#does-revnu-work-in-other-languages).

## What does the share link do on each platform?

| Platform | What the link opens | What you do |
|---|---|---|
| X | The composer with your text filled in. On an iPhone, it opens the X app | Press Post |
| Threads, Bluesky | The composer with your text filled in | Press Post |
| LinkedIn | LinkedIn's share box. LinkedIn only lets the link carry a web address, not text | Paste the draft Revnu sent just before, then post |
| Reddit | The subreddit's text-post form with the title filled in | Paste the body Revnu sent, then post |
| Hacker News | The submit page with your link and title. Titles must be 80 characters or fewer. A link post has no body field | Submit, then add your text as the first comment |
| Google Business Profile | Nothing. There's no share link | Copy the post Revnu sends and paste it into your profile at business.google.com |

**Posting a Show HN**

HN's guidelines ask people not to post AI-written or AI-edited text. So for a Show HN, Revnu gives you a title and an outline for you to write up yourself. Ask if you want the full text anyway. Two rules keep a Show HN from being flagged:

- **Show HN is only for something people can try now**, without a sign-up wall in the way.
- **Never ask anyone to upvote or comment.** HN penalises it, friends and colleagues included.

**Posting to your Google Business Profile**

Profile posts go live when you publish them in your profile. If Revnu puts the post on a card in **Review**, **Approve** on that card sends nothing, so copy the text, paste it into your profile and publish it, then tell Revnu it's live. You can ask for a link to a page on your site in the post.

**Posting to Reddit**

Many subreddits remove "I made this" posts. Revnu checks the subreddit's rules first, and for developer communities it usually writes a post that teaches something, with one line about your product. Reddit can also filter posts from new or low-karma accounts. If yours disappears, message the subreddit's moderators.

## My Show HN or Reddit post is live. Can Revnu help with the comments?

Yes. Send Revnu the live link and ask "how is it doing?" or "help me answer the comments".

- **Hacker News.** Revnu can usually read a public HN post and its comments from the link. It tells you where the post stands, which questions people are asking and what to cover in each answer. HN asks for comments in your own words, so write the replies yourself from those notes.
- **Reddit.** Reddit often blocks outside readers from a thread. If Revnu asks, copy the comments into chat and it drafts replies for you to post.

Either way, you post the replies yourself. HN replies come from you, and Revnu comments on Reddit for accounts where thread replies are switched on, as described below.

Where does the post text go on HN? A link post has no body. Put your text, written from Revnu's outline, in the first comment on your own post, straight after you submit.

## Can I add an image or video to an X post?

Yes, in the X composer. The share link carries your text, then you add the image or video before you press Post. If the image is already on your website, a link to it in the post usually shows as a preview card.

Need an image? Ask Revnu: "make an image for this post". It makes one in your brand's colours and style once your brand profile is ready, and sends it with the caption to post it with. Save it to your phone or computer, then attach it in the composer. The visuals Revnu makes are still images.

## Can Revnu post to LinkedIn for me automatically?

Revnu writes the posts and you publish them with one tap. It reads your own LinkedIn posts and your company's blog, then by default writes a short first-person story about something that really happened, usually with a graphic to post alongside it. With no story of yours to tell, it reacts to something real and public your buyers are talking about rather than making one up. You get the draft, its graphic when Revnu could make one, and a share link. Connecting LinkedIn lets Revnu send invites and messages, and your posts go out through the share link. See [connect LinkedIn](https://revnu.com/docs/connect-linkedin.md).

What you can automate is the writing. Ask for a recurring task, for example "every Monday, draft two LinkedIn posts for me", and the drafts arrive on schedule, each with its own share link to tap. See [recurring work](https://revnu.com/docs/recurring-work.md).

To stop or change a recurring post task later, open **Workflows** in the sidebar, open the task and press **Pause**, or the bin icon to delete it. Or tell Revnu "stop the Monday LinkedIn posts".

## Can Revnu post to Reddit for me?

Revnu writes the post and you submit it from your own account. Reddit works three ways in Revnu:

- **Posts work for everyone.** Revnu drafts the post and sends a link that opens the subreddit's text-post form with the title filled in. Paste the body Revnu sent and submit from your own Reddit account.
- **Comments are switched on account by account.** Revnu finds threads where your buyers ask for help and writes a reply. See below.
- **Ads run on your own ad account.** You connect it yourself. See [connect Reddit Ads](https://revnu.com/docs/connect-reddit-ads.md).

Before you post, read the subreddit's rules on self-promotion. Many remove "I made this" posts, and new or low-karma accounts often get filtered.

## Can Revnu reply to Reddit threads?

Yes, on accounts where Revnu's team has switched it on. To ask for it, email support@revnu.com with your workspace name and the subreddits your buyers use. See [get help](https://revnu.com/docs/get-help.md).

When it's on, Revnu finds threads where your buyers ask for help and writes a reply. Every reply waits for you in **Review**, whatever your approval settings say, and goes out only when you approve it.

## Does Revnu do TikTok, Instagram or Facebook posts, or video?

Revnu writes the script or caption, and you film and post it from your own account.

### Can Revnu write captions for Pinterest, Instagram or Facebook?

Yes, for you to post. Revnu writes captions, hashtags if you use them, and the short text that goes on an image, for any platform. It can also make a still image in your brand's style, as it does for X posts. For example:

> Write three Instagram captions for our gallery opening on Friday, plus the text for a square image. Keep it under 30 words each, no emoji.

Copy the caption, add the image in the app, and post it yourself. There's no share link for these platforms.

For paid reach on those platforms, Revnu can run ads on your own TikTok ad account. See [connect TikTok Ads](https://revnu.com/docs/connect-tiktok-ads.md). It can also run Facebook and Instagram ads on your own Meta ad account. See [connect Meta Ads](https://revnu.com/docs/meta-ads.md).

## How do I make Revnu write in my voice?

Revnu already reads your best posts before drafting. It finds your X handle on your site or GitHub if it isn't on file, and reads your LinkedIn posts when it writes for LinkedIn. To help it further:

- Tell it your handles, and which past posts did well.
- Give it the raw material only you have: why you built the thing, a number, a moment with a customer.
- When a draft is wrong, say what's wrong instead of dropping it. "It sounds like an ad" or "I already launched this" gets you a rewrite.

## How do I turn a channel or a style off for good?

Write it in Memory yourself. Telling Revnu in chat works straight away, and Memory makes it stick. Revnu reads Memory every time it works, and what you type there is what it reads.

### 1. Open Memory

Open **Settings > Memory**.

### 2. Add the rule to your About file

Write it in your own words, for example:

> Don't draft X posts for me.

> My posts read like a product spec. Write them like a founder talking: short, first person, one story per post.

![Settings, Memory tab, with the sections list on the left and an editable section with a Save button](https://revnu.com/docs/screens/settings-memory.webp)

### 3. Press Save

Your edit reaches Revnu the next time it works.

> **Tip:** Style rules belong in your **About** file. **Never Say** is for words, phrases and claims that must never appear, such as "revolutionary" or "guaranteed results", one per line. Don't put "stop sounding corporate" there.

If you do tell Revnu in chat ("don't draft X posts"), it uses the rule straight away, but it may keep it in its own notes without changing the text in Memory. Open **Settings > Memory** afterwards and check the line is there. If it isn't, add it. See [teach Revnu your business with Memory](https://revnu.com/docs/memory.md).

If the posts come from a recurring task, change or stop the task too. See [recurring work](https://revnu.com/docs/recurring-work.md).

## Can Revnu follow up with people who engaged with my post?

On LinkedIn, yes. Revnu can list the people who reacted to and commented on any public LinkedIn post, yours or someone else's, and add them as leads. You don't need LinkedIn connected for this. Paste the post's link into a message like:

> Add everyone who commented on this LinkedIn post as leads, and draft a connection request for the founders.

You can then reach them through a [sequence](https://revnu.com/docs/sequences.md). See [LinkedIn invites, messages and replies](https://revnu.com/docs/linkedin-outreach.md).

X keeps likes private to the post's author, and Revnu reaches people on LinkedIn and email rather than X messages. On Reddit and Hacker News, read the comments and ask Revnu to help you reply.

## If it doesn't work

| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| The link opens with an empty post | On LinkedIn and for Reddit bodies, that's expected: paste the draft. On X, Threads or Bluesky, ask Revnu to resend a shorter link. Very long links break in iMessage |
| The HN title won't submit | It's over 80 characters. Ask Revnu for a shorter one |
| Revnu drafted for a channel you said no to | Check your **About** file in **Settings > Memory** (titled with your business name) and add the rule in your own words. If a recurring task is drafting them, stop or edit it in [recurring work](https://revnu.com/docs/recurring-work.md) |
| You want Reddit comments and asking in chat didn't help | Email support@revnu.com with your workspace name and subreddits |

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Revnu post to LinkedIn for me?

Revnu writes the post in your voice and sends you a LinkedIn share link. Paste the draft and press Post, since LinkedIn's link can't carry text. Revnu can draft posts on a schedule, and publishing stays in your hands.

### Can Revnu schedule posts on X?

Revnu writes the draft and sends a link that opens X with the text ready, so you press Post at the moment you want it live.

### Can Revnu make TikToks or Instagram Reels?

Revnu writes the script and caption for you to film and post, and it can run ads on your own TikTok ad account.

### How do I stop Revnu suggesting X posts?

Add "Don't draft X posts for me." to the first file in **Settings > Memory**, titled **About** plus your business name and save. Revnu reads Memory every time it works. You can also tell it in chat, but check the line landed in Memory.

### Can Revnu check how my Show HN is doing?

Send it the live link and ask. It can usually read a public HN post and its comments, and tells you what people are asking so you can answer in your own words. Reddit often blocks outside readers, so for a Reddit post paste the comments into chat and it drafts replies.

### Can Revnu write Instagram or Pinterest captions?

Yes. It writes the caption and any text for the image, and can make a still image. You post it from your own account.

### Can Revnu post comments on Reddit?

Yes, once Revnu's team switches it on for your account, and every comment waits for your approval. To ask, email support@revnu.com with your workspace name and subreddits. Every account also gets Reddit post drafts with a one-tap link to submit them from your own account.

### Can Revnu post to my Google Business Profile?

Revnu writes the post, and you paste it into your profile at business.google.com to put it live. Approve on a Google Business Profile card in Review sends nothing, so pasting is the step that publishes.
