# Write with AI

Source: https://social9.com/docs/posts/write-with-ai

> How to have the AI write or change a post in your brand voice, what each button does, and what it costs in credits.

The AI can write a post from a few words, or change one you wrote. It writes in your brand's voice and only uses facts from your brand profile.

---

## Where to find it

**Dashboard → Create**, the **AI write** tab under the text box in **Write your post**. It is open when the page loads.

---

## Write a new post

1. Describe the post in a few words, for example "new menu launches Monday".
2. Press **Write**.

Not sure what to say? Press one of the starting ideas under the box: **Our latest news**, **A helpful tip for customers** or **A special offer**.

---

## Change a post

Once there is text, the box asks what to change.

- Type an instruction, for example "mention our Friday sale", and press **Rewrite**.
- Or press a quick button:

| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| **Shorter** | Makes it shorter |
| **Friendlier** | Makes it friendlier |
| **Add a call to action** | Adds a clear call to action |
| **Add hashtags** | Adds 3 relevant hashtags |
| **Fix grammar** | Fixes grammar only |

Did not like the result? Press **Undo AI** to get your text back.

## Best quality

The **Best quality** switch uses a stronger AI model. It costs 8 credits a write instead of 4. The cost shows under the box before you press anything.

---

## What it costs

| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
| AI writes or rewrites a post | 4 |
| With **Best quality** on | 8 |

If the AI fails or times out, you are not charged. See [Credits and usage](https://social9.com/docs/account/credits-and-usage).

---

## Make it sound like you

The AI uses your brand voice. Under the box it says **Uses your brand voice**, or offers **Set up Brand Voice** if you have not done it yet.

Ten minutes in [Brand voice](https://social9.com/docs/brand/brand-voice) saves you editing every post afterwards.

---

## Check before you post

After the AI writes, two things may show under the text:

- **Check this** warnings, for any price, date, number or strong claim that is not in your facts sheet
- **Why this post**, which shows the topic, the voice and what the post was based on

See [Fact checks and "Why this post"](https://social9.com/docs/brand/fact-checks-and-why-this-post).
