In their own words
Hear from creators who have used OptInsta.
See the actions available for the apps you already use.
ChatGPT can help with the work. For a recurring job across channels, you still have to choose the apps, set up the Task and connect the handoffs. With OptInsta, connect your channels and tell your marketing agent the job in plain language.
No. Connect the accounts you want it to use, then ask for the job in plain language. You do not need to write Skills, choose an MCP server or manage developer keys to use the marketing actions OptInsta supports.
The capability directory covers Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Reddit and Pinterest, plus Canva, Gmail and Google Workspace apps. The agent can carry work across supported actions in those apps, such as finding public X accounts for review and adding candidates to a Google Sheet. The exact actions depend on the account you connect and the platform's permissions. Check the capability directory to see what is available.
Yes. Once you have connected an eligible account and told your agent what to post and when, it can publish on that schedule. You can review completed work in Agent Updates. Some other actions may still ask you for a decision, and platform permissions still apply.
In enabled setups, OptInsta can search recent public X discussion and return deduplicated public accounts for you to review, without an X developer account or API subscription. Results depend on the query, public activity and provider limits. These are accounts to review, not verified leads.
It creates new images from prompts for your campaign. Image generation uses credits. Image editing may also be available in enabled setups; check the current image tools and credit allowance in your account.
You may need to reconnect an account if a provider revokes access or changes its permissions. Agent Updates shows completed work, and the capability directory tells you what each connection supports. The self-improvement skill learns from your feedback; it does not restore a provider connection by itself.
Yes. Tell your agent what to create, where to publish it and how often to run. For Instagram carousel publishing, the connected account must be eligible; LinkedIn posting requires the appropriate account access. The job must explicitly request publishing; setting a schedule for drafts alone does not publish them. Image credits, platform quotas and any required decisions still apply. You can change or pause the job and review its runs in Agent Updates.
Yes. ChatGPT has scheduled Tasks and connected apps. For this marketing routine, getting the right context, app actions and channel handoffs into each run is part of the setup. With OptInsta, brief the agent, choose the cadence and review its completed work.
