How do I set up automatic AI social media posts for my store?

In Pludor, open AI Studio from your dashboard, press + Connect Account to link your socials, then press + Create Automation and set a name, template and frequency. Pick an approval mode and the platforms you want. Generated posts then appear in the Approval Queue, and Recent Runs shows what was published.

Can AI write and schedule Instagram and TikTok posts for me automatically?

Yes. Pludor's AI Content Automations generate posts on a schedule you choose and can publish to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube Shorts. You can review each post in an Approval Queue before it goes live, so nothing goes out without your sign-off.

How much does it cost to automate social media content with AI?

Pludor's Free plan includes 20 AI images free each month, and new stores start with 500 free credits. Beyond the free amounts, generations use credits at 1 credit = 1 cent, and heavier video and voice models use more credits per generation. Monthly plans like Starter ($9) or Growth ($29) bundle larger credit amounts if you need more.

Is it safe to let AI post to my social media accounts automatically?

It can be, if you keep a human review step. Pludor's approval mode puts every generated post in an Approval Queue so you check it before publishing, and Recent Runs logs what went out. Also note that what can post automatically depends on each social network's API.

What's the best way to keep up a daily posting schedule without spending hours on it?

Set up an automation with a template and frequency, then review the queue once a day or week instead of creating content from scratch. On Pludor, you can also use the Content Calendar to spot gaps and the free 30-Day Content Calendar Generator to get a month of post ideas with hooks. That turns daily content into a short review task.

Do I need to approve every AI-generated post before it goes out?

No, it's your choice. When you create an automation in Pludor's AI Studio, you pick the approval mode - you can require review in the Approval Queue or let posts publish automatically. Most people start with approval on, then relax it once they trust the output.

How do I connect my Instagram or TikTok account to a posting tool?

You connect through OAuth, which is the standard secure way social networks allow. In Pludor, open Social Accounts in the Content & Creator menu and connect via OAuth, or press + Connect Account inside AI Studio. Once connected, the automation can publish to those accounts within what each network's API allows.

How is Pludor's AI Studio different from using Midjourney or ChatGPT for social content?

With separate tools you typically pay a subscription each for video, images, voice, music and copy, then download and re-upload everything to your socials. Pludor puts all those models in one studio with one credit balance, and results can be attached to product listings, pinned on Flika or scheduled straight to your socials. Video models like Sora 2, Veo 3.1 and Kling sit in one picker instead of one vendor's models per subscription.

Can I automatically reply to comments on my posts?

Yes. On Pludor, go to Management > Automation Rules, create a flow, pick the comment trigger and enter your keywords, then write the reply text and save. The reply fires automatically when someone comments with one of those keywords on your posts.

What are the limitations of AI social media automations?

You need connected social accounts, and what can actually be posted automatically depends on each network's API - platforms restrict what third-party tools may do. Generations also use AI credits, so heavy video or voice output costs more than images. On Pludor, the free monthly amounts and 500 welcome credits let you test this before committing.

How much does Pludor AI Content Automations cost?

Every store, including the Free plan, gets 20 AI images free each month (monthly plans multiply that and include credits); past that, generations use credits (1 credit = 1 cent) and new stores start with 500 free credits. Shoppers with a free Pludor account get 20 free credits for the free-tier models (plus 20 more for each verified friend they invite). Heavier video and voice models use more credits per generation.
