Postline.ai offers three primary sources for generating content, ensuring a wide range of fresh and relevant material for your posts:

🗞️ News: By selecting this source, Postline.ai searches real-time global news related to your input topic. This option is perfect for sharing the latest developments, trends, and insights, keeping your content timely and informative.

🔍 Google: This source option performs a comprehensive Google Search to find relevant websites, blogs, and articles. It's ideal for those looking to share a broader range of content, including expert opinions, detailed guides, and in-depth analyses.

🔗 URL: For users who already have a specific source in mind, the URL option allows you to input a dedicated webpage. Postline.ai will then generate content based on the information found on that page. This is particularly useful for highlighting specific articles, research findings, or event pages.

Each source option is designed to cater to different content needs, allowing users to maintain a varied and interesting social media presence. Each source offers different settings that affect the search the AI is performing: See The Settings.

➡️ It is important to understand how the search works. Keep in mind that whatever you input in the search bar will be used to execute a search on Google Search or Google News. Inserting a prompt at this point will not give you any results. Please read How to search to get a better understanding of how to get the best results.

Choose your source based on the topic you are looking for

When you tell Postline.ai to search for news, it will access a database that only contains news. Meaning you won´t find information on any topic there, that is not covered by global news outlets and treated as a news article.

It´s a good idea to choose News as a source type, when you want to post something about a topic that is currently in the news or has been "covered by news" at some point. But if you are looking to post about a topic like best practices, market analysis or a niche topic, you should use Google Search or URL. Many topics can´t be found in local or global news.
