Smart Scheduling & Content Bank
Understand how the Content Bank stores your ideas and Smart Scheduling automatically creates posts.
Smart Scheduling & Content Bank
Transform your voice notes into a library of reusable content ideas that automatically become scheduled posts.
What is the Content Bank?
The Content Bank is your personal library of content ideas ("content atoms") extracted from your voice notes. Each voice note can contain multiple ideas that Influence Craft identifies and saves for future use.
How It Works
- Record a voice note with your thoughts and ideas
- Influence Craft extracts individual content atoms
- Ideas are stored in your Content Bank
- Track freshness - each idea has a freshness score
- Generate posts from any stored idea
Freshness Tracking
Content atoms have a freshness indicator:
- Fresh: Recently created, haven't been used much
- Warm: Used a few times, still relevant
- Stale: Used frequently, consider new angles
This helps you maintain variety in your content and avoid repetition.
Unlocking the Content Bank
The Content Bank unlocks when you reach the Voice Unlocked milestone:
Requirement: 10 voice note recordings
Once unlocked, you'll see:
- A dedicated Content Bank section
- All extracted content atoms
- Freshness indicators
- Quick-generate buttons
What is Smart Scheduling?
Smart Scheduling automatically creates drafts from your Content Bank, balanced across your content pillars. It ensures you always have fresh, diverse content ready to post.
How Smart Scheduling Works
- Reviews your Content Bank for fresh ideas
- Checks your content pillars for balance
- Generates drafts prioritizing underused pillars
- Schedules posts according to your preferences
- Maintains variety to keep your audience engaged
When Posts Are Created
Smart Scheduling runs automatically to:
- Fill your posting schedule
- Balance content across pillars
- Prioritize fresh content atoms
- Respect your posting frequency settings
Unlocking Smart Scheduling
Smart Scheduling unlocks at the Smart Scheduling milestone:
Requirements:
- 25 voice note recordings
- Coverage of at least 4 content pillars
This ensures you have enough content variety for automated scheduling to work effectively.
Content Pillars and Balance
Smart Scheduling uses your content pillars to maintain balance:
The 7 Content Pillars
- Expertise: Deep knowledge and industry insights
- Tactical: How-to guides and actionable advice
- Personal: Stories and experiences
- Commentary: Industry opinions and trends
- Social Proof: Results and testimonials
- Engagement: Questions and discussions
- Behind the Scenes: Day-to-day and process
Pillar Health
Smart Scheduling monitors pillar health:
- Strong: Well-covered, plenty of content
- Moderate: Adequate coverage
- Weak: Needs more content
When creating drafts, it prioritizes weaker pillars to maintain balance.
