Hey Creator,
Artlist’s new report finds 87% of creators have already added AI into their workflow — not to replace creativity, but to reclaim time. Edits are cleaner. Ideas ship faster. Output scales.
If you’re still doing everything manually, you might not be “staying authentic” — you might be falling behind the people who are working smarter.
Because the creator economy isn’t slowing down — it’s accelerating.
And the advantage goes to those who learn the tools that keep pace.

Tool Spotlight
What Is Postiz?
Postiz is an all‑in‑one, AI‑powered social media scheduling tool built to take a lot of the mental load and repetition out of content planning, design, and publishing.
It combines scheduling, an AI content assistant, a Canva‑style design editor, and analytics so you can move from idea to published post without leaving the tool.
Because it is open source and can be self‑hosted, it appeals not just to marketers but also to developers and privacy‑conscious teams that want control over their data and infrastructure.
Who Postiz is for
Postiz is designed for three main groups: creators building a personal brand, businesses that need consistent output, and agencies juggling multiple client accounts. Solo creators get a way to batch and schedule content without burning out, while small brands use it to centralize their marketing posts and keep messaging consistent across channels.
Agencies and larger teams benefit from multi‑channel management, team collaboration, and higher‑tier limits, so they can handle many profiles and campaigns from one place instead of a tangle of logins and spreadsheets.
How it helps creators specifically
Postiz acts like a creative co‑pilot for creators, handling ideas, captions, visuals, timing, and tracking so you don’t have to juggle a dozen tools. Its AI assistant writes and refines posts, the built‑in design and image tools help you make thumb‑stopping visuals without design skills, and smart scheduling, cross‑posting, and auto‑actions cut the “always online” stress so you can focus on community and bigger projects. Over time, analytics show what actually works, so you can double down on your best formats, topics, and platforms.
Key features worth knowing
Multi‑platform scheduling & cross‑posting: Plan and queue posts for multiple platforms from a single calendar, with channel‑specific tweaks.
AI content assistant: Brainstorm ideas, draft and refine captions, adjust tone, and localize content with built‑in AI.
Canva‑style AI design: Create and edit visuals directly in Postiz using an integrated editor and AI image generation.
Team collaboration: Invite teammates, assign tasks, and manage approvals from one shared content calendar.
Auto actions for engagement: Set up auto‑posting, auto‑likes, and auto‑comments based on milestones to boost reach.
Analytics & insights: See what performs best, when your audience is active, and which channels drive results.
Open‑source & self‑hosting: Run Postiz on your own infrastructure for greater control, privacy, and customization.

💡 Creators Pro Tip For Postiz

One focused idea sprint turns into a full week of consistent, on‑brand content without daily decision fatigue.
