Getting Started

Your First Post

From signup to published in 10 minutes.

This walkthrough gets you from a fresh Borker account to your first published post. Total time: about 10 minutes, most of it waiting for AI generation.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have:

Step 1: Create a draft

Go to the Command Center (the home icon in the sidebar) and type a prompt into the bar at the top:

Write an X post about our engineering culture

Click Send. In a few seconds you'll see a confirmation toast.

Step 2: Review it

Click Content Pipeline in the sidebar. You'll land on the Review tab with one new draft.

Click the draft card to open the detail modal. You'll see:

  • The generated post text
  • The platform and target channel
  • Suggested scheduled time (or blank if none)
  • Edit buttons

Read it. If the voice doesn't feel right, click Edit and tweak the content directly — or close the modal and adjust your Brand Voice settings (Settings → Brand & Voice) before running it again.

Step 3: Approve it

Back in the Review tab, click the green checkmark on the card (or open the detail and click Approve). The card moves to the Approved tab.

Approving ≠ scheduling. An approved post is still a draft; it just means "I'm okay with this content." You still need to schedule it to actually publish.

Step 4: Schedule it

Switch to the Approved tab. Click the card you just approved, then click Schedule. This opens a time picker — pick a future time and save.

The card moves to the Scheduled tab with its publish time shown.

Step 5: Publish

You don't click anything. At the scheduled time, Borker's publishing queue sends the post to the platform and it moves to the Published tab automatically.

You can watch this happen in real time if you scheduled something within the next few minutes.

What you just did

That's the core Borker loop:

Prompt bar → Draft → Review → Approve → Schedule → Published

Everything else in Borker is a variation of this: different ways to produce drafts (daily automation, campaigns, news reactions, blog redistribution), but the review → approve → schedule → publish path is always the same.
