Signed in and ready to make something happen? This quick start takes you from zero to your first scheduled post in five steps. Set aside about ten minutes for it.
1. Choose a team
The team switcher sits at the top of the sidebar. A team is your workspace – with its own projects, members and storage. Pick the team you want to work in. If you don't have one yet or you're new here, take a quick look at What is a team?.
2. Create a project
A project keeps your posts organized – for example by client, campaign or channel. Create a new project from the sidebar and give it a clear name. More on this under Creating projects.
Tip: If your team already has projects, you can skip this step and go straight into an existing one.
3. Create a post
Open your project and tap New post in the top right. You'll land right in the post editor – the central workspace for your post. For how the editor is laid out, see The post editor.
4. Add media and a caption
Now you bring the post to life:
- Upload images or a video – more on this under Uploading media.
- Write your caption. You can type it yourself or get help from the AI assistant.
- Choose a platform and format so your post sits right everywhere – see Platforms and formats.
5. Schedule it or share it for approval
Finally, you decide when the post should go out. Set a target date via Planning and scheduling.
Working for a client who should sign off? Then share the post via a secure link for their approval. For how that works, see How approval works.
Done! Your first post is created and scheduled. From here you can add more posts, invite colleagues, or connect your social accounts to publish straight from maebe.
