AI generation and the brief
PostYard can write a post type's posts itself, on a weekly schedule or on demand — the AI brief is what tells it what to write about.
Where: Post types → (open the post type) → Automation
The AI brief is the single most important field on this tab — a few sentences describing what the post type is about, its voice, and the kind of thing it should post. Everything the generator writes is shaped by it.
Turn on AI generation and it will draft posts weekly, following the brief, researching the web where useful, and queuing the result for approval like any other post. "Generate now" runs the same thing on demand instead of waiting for the weekly schedule.
AI generation is metered — every run costs real spend, tracked against the post type's account, and a run that's out of allowance is refused before it starts rather than mid-draft.
