Social Posts: LinkedIn, X, Reddit, HN and More

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 press Post. It can also write posts for your Google Business Profile, which you paste in yourself.

Revnu doesn't publish or schedule social posts itself, on any platform.

How do I get a post written?

1. 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. 2

   Read the draft

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

3. 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. 4

   Tell Revnu it's live

   Paste the live link. Revnu never says a post went out until you confirm. With the link it can look at the public post later and tell you how it's doing, or say plainly if it can't read that site.

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: …". Revnu can't watch a video, so paste the words, not a TikTok link.

Posting in a language other than English? See talk to Revnu.

What does the share link do on each platform?

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

Revnu can't post to your profile. If it puts the post on a card in Review, Approve on that card sends nothing. Copy the text, paste it into your profile, 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 Revnu from reading a thread. If Revnu says it can't read yours, copy the comments into chat and it drafts replies for you to post.

Either way, you post the replies yourself. Revnu doesn't comment on HN, and comments on Reddit only 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?

Not through the share link. It can only carry text. Add the image or video in the X composer 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 to you. Save it to your phone or computer, then attach it in the composer. Revnu doesn't make video.

Can Revnu post to LinkedIn for me automatically?

Revnu writes the posts and you publish them with one tap. It researches what your buyers care about, writes posts in your voice, and gives you the draft and a share link. Connecting LinkedIn lets Revnu send invites and messages, not posts. See connect LinkedIn.

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.

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 on for some accounts only. Revnu can find threads where your buyers ask for help and write a reply, but it's switched on account by account. See below.

• Ads run on your own ad account. You connect it yourself. See connect Reddit Ads.

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.

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 yourself. It doesn't post to TikTok, Instagram or Facebook or make videos itself.

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't post to. 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. Facebook and Instagram ads are a limited pilot. See Meta ads.

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 is a shortcut, not the fix. Revnu reads Memory every time it works, and what you type there is what it reads.

1. 1

   Open Memory

   Open Settings > Memory.

2. 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.

3. 3

   Press Save

   Your edit reaches Revnu the next time it works.

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.

If the posts come from a recurring task, change or stop the task too. See recurring work.

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. Send the post's link, for example:

Add everyone who commented on https://www.linkedin.com/posts/... as leads, and draft a connection request for the founders.

You can then reach them through a sequence. See LinkedIn invites, messages and replies.

On X, no. X keeps likes private to the post's author, so Revnu can't see who liked your post, and it can't send messages on X. For Reddit and Hacker News, Revnu doesn't track who engaged either. Read the comments yourself and ask Revnu to help you reply.
