# Draft and schedule posts with the AI Copilot
> Ask the AI Copilot to write, change and schedule posts, add images and read your post analytics, on its own page or inside Create Post.
**Where:** **AI Copilot** in the left rail. Inside **Create Post**, the **AI Copilot** tab in the right column.
The AI Copilot is a chat that writes posts for your channels. It shows each post on a card, and nothing reaches your calendar until you choose an action on that card.
During the 7-day free trial, three things stay locked until the paid plan starts: connecting a new X channel, AI videos made with Seedance, and the AI Copilot, on its own page and in the post composer. Image Text Slides videos work during the trial. To unlock the rest now, choose **End free trial** on the Billing page. The plan starts and is charged at once.
## Draft a post
Choose **AI Copilot** in the left rail. Your channels are on the left under **Select Channels**, the chat is in the middle, and your **Chats** are on the right.
Click the channels the post is for. The message box lists them after "Posting to".
Say what you want to post and when, then press Enter. Shift + Enter starts a new line.
The Copilot reads each network's rules and shows a **Post Preview** card. It reads "Checking channel rules" until the check is done.
Choose **Schedule**, or **Schedule next free slot** when you gave no time. The arrow next to it has **Post now**, **Save as draft**, **Add image** or **Change image**, and **Remove image**. **Edit in Create Post** opens the post in the composer to finish by hand.
A card with several posts also offers **Schedule all**. The next free slot is the first free quarter hour one to four hours from now, the same time **Create Post** starts from.
## Change a post you already have
Ask in plain words, for example "move Friday's Bluesky post to 10:00". The Copilot finds the post and shows an **Update Existing Post** card. **Save changes** saves the edit and keeps the post's date; the arrow also has **Schedule** and **Delete Post**. The Copilot never deletes a post itself: you do it from the card, after "Are you sure you want to delete this post?".
## What else you can ask
* **Images:** make one for a post, or use one from [Media](/using/media-library). Each generated image uses an AI image credit.
* **Videos:** in the **AI Copilot** tab of Create Post, ask for a video for the post. Each video uses an AI video credit. See [Ask the AI Copilot for a video](/using/ai-images-and-video#ask-the-ai-copilot-for-a-video).
* **Analytics:** totals for posts published in the last 7, 30 or 90 days, your top posts, or one post's numbers, from the [networks that report analytics](/using/analytics).
* **Settings:** change a scheduled post's or a draft's network settings without touching its text or time.
## In Create Post
The right column has two tabs, **Post Preview** and **AI Copilot**, and opens on **AI Copilot** until the post has text or media. There the Copilot works on the open post only:
* **Quick edits**: **Rephrase**, **Shorten**, **Expand**, **More Casual** and **More Formal**. A suggestion comes on a card with **Apply**, and **Undo** takes it back.
* Ask for an image and choose **Use in this post** to attach it, or ask for a comment to wait a few minutes after the post.
* To schedule, use the composer's own buttons.
## Generate Posts from a brief
Open the arrow next to **Create Post** in the header and choose **AI post**. Write at least 10 characters under **Write anything** (links are fine), pick an **Output format** and a **Tone**, check **Add pictures?** for images, and choose **Generate**. The composer opens with the result to check and schedule.
## Good to know
* Every paid plan includes the AI Copilot.
* Chats are saved for the workspace, so everyone in it sees the same list. **New chat** starts a fresh one.
* Chatting and rewriting do not use credits. Only images and videos do.
* A network's rules always win. If a draft breaks one, the card reads "Copilot is fixing this draft" while the Copilot corrects it.
