Campaigns & Auto-Publishing


Automate your entire content creation and social media strategy with Campaigns!

How Campaigns Work

Instead of generating one post at a time, you can create a Campaign. Give the AI a topic (like "Weekly African Business News"), and it will automatically generate a suite of assets including:

  • Facebook Posts (with generated images)
  • LinkedIn Articles
  • X (Twitter) Threads
  • Videos and Images tailored to the campaign theme
Auto-Publishing to Social Media

You no longer have to manually copy and paste your generated content! Afrigen can automatically publish your campaign assets to your linked social media accounts the moment they are generated.

How to set it up:
1. Go to your Dashboard and navigate to Connected Accounts.
2. Connect your Facebook Page, LinkedIn, or X (Twitter) account.
3. Start a new Campaign! Once the AI finishes generating a post for a connected platform, it will be added to the Publishing Queue and posted automatically.

Resilient Publishing Queue

If a social media platform (like Facebook or X) happens to be temporarily down when your post is ready, don't worry! Afrigen uses a robust background queue that will silently retry publishing your post up to 5 times until it succeeds.
