Quickstart: publish your first AI-drafted social post
Sign up to Rheos, then write, preview and publish your first AI-drafted social post in a few minutes. Covers the setup flow and post editor.
Rheos is an AI social media tool for small businesses. It learns your brand from your website, drafts posts in your voice, and publishes them to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn (your profile and your company pages) and X.This page covers your first post. Signing up and setting up are handled for you — here is what that looks like, then the part you actually do.
Create an account at dashboard.rheos.app with Google or email. Then:You fill in a short form. Only your name is required. The most useful thing you can add is your website: Rheos reads your site to work out what you sell, who for, and how you sound.One chat builds your brand and your posting plan. While Rheos reads your website, it asks what you want from social media and which platforms you and your business use. Then it asks a few questions about your brand, and asks for your logo if it couldn’t find one. It never asks how often you can post: Rheos picks a number of posts a week from your goal and shows it on your plan. If you want more or fewer on a platform, say so in the chat. Once the plan is saved, a Connect your accounts card offers each platform you haven’t connected yet; Skip for now leaves that for later. Every account gets two brands, a personal one for you and a business one for the company.You get a first image style for free. If you gave a website, Rheos makes a reference style from it and your logo while you finish, so your first images match your brand. Refresh makes a new one, once. The style is saved on your brand’s Style tab as Your website style.Then you choose where to go. The chat ends on Your brand’s set up. with Create my first post and Go to your home.
The last step of the setup chat. Email signups also see the reminder to verify their address.
If you signed up with an email address and password, confirm your address before you make your first image. The link is in the email Rheos sent when you signed up, and Resend email sends it again.Back on Home, a Get started checklist in the sidebar walks you through connecting your accounts, making your first post and adding Rheos to Claude. For a fuller walkthrough, open the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar and pick Tutorials.
You can draft as much as you like without connecting anything, but nothing can be sent until at least one account is live. The checklist prompts you, or go to Settings → Social Accounts yourself. Your personal and business brands each keep their own.Each platform is a Connect button, a sign-in, and back to Rheos. You can connect Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and X. Full details in Connect social accounts.
From Home, select New post. Or pick an open slot in this week’s plan and select Create post: the slot already sets the day and, usually, the platform.

Answer a few questions
Rheos interviews you before it writes anything. First, Where’s it going? Pick one platform: LinkedIn, Meta (Instagram and Facebook together) or X. Only platforms you have connected are offered; with nothing connected yet, it writes the post for anywhere.Speaking as at the top shows whose voice the post is in. Rheos picks it from the accounts you’ve connected, and asks Who’s speaking? only when both you and your business have connected accounts.
The first question of a new post. Speaking as shows the brand Rheos is writing for.
Then it asks a few short questions about the post itself. Select a suggested answer or type your own.

Pick an angle
Once it knows enough, Rheos offers a few angles. Pick one and it writes the first draft around it. None of them right? Select None of these, ask me more and it asks another question before offering again.
Your answers stay listed above the angles, each with a pencil to change it.
Rather write it yourself? Write manually, top right, leaves the interview and opens the editor. Your answers so far are kept.

Edit the draft
The draft opens in the editor, with a chat beside it. Ask for changes in plain English — “shorten by half”, “make the opening punchier” — and after each edit Rheos tells you exactly what it changed. Or edit the text yourself; Rheos saves as you go.For an image, use the Attachments card: Attach to upload one or pick from your Library, Generate to make one in the Image Studio.
5
Publish or schedule
At the bottom of the post, Post now opens a summary of where the post is going; a second Post now sends it. Schedule opens a date and time picker instead.
Instagram will not publish a text-only post. With nothing attached, publishing stays blocked until you add an image or video. Go over the platform’s character limit and Rheos names it and holds publishing until you trim. See per-platform variations.
