Changes to Auto Posting Frequency in the New Auto Posting 3.0

What Changed

We've updated how posting frequency works in Auto Posting. If you've been using Predis.ai for a while, you'll notice the frequency options look different from what you're used to. Here's a quick summary of what changed and why.

Old Auto Posting Frequency Options

The previous version of Auto Posting let you choose from daily-based frequencies:

• Once a day (1 post per day)
• Twice a day (2 posts per day)
• Three times a day (3 posts per day)
• Alternate days (1 post every other day)

New Auto Posting Frequency Options

The updated Auto Posting now uses weekly-based frequencies:

• 5 posts per week — Ideal for brands that want a consistent weekday presence without overwhelming their audience. Works out to roughly one post per weekday.
• 10 posts per week — A strong, active posting cadence. Averages about 1–2 posts per day, spread across the week.
• 14 posts per week — The most active option. Averages 2 posts per day, suitable for brands that need high-volume output across multiple platforms.

Why We Made This Change

Weekly frequency gives the AI more flexibility to distribute your posts intelligently across the week rather than forcing a rigid daily count. Not every day of the week performs equally on social media — engagement patterns vary by platform, audience, and industry. With weekly frequency, the system can space your posts for better reach and engagement instead of mechanically posting at the same interval every single day.

It also simplifies planning. When you think in terms of "I want about 10 posts this week," it's easier to visualize your content load than calculating "twice a day times seven days minus weekends."

What About Daily Posting Frequency?

The new Auto Posting does not include an exact "once a day" or "alternate days" option. If you specifically need to post exactly once every day or on a strict alternate-day schedule, here's how to handle it.

Option 1: Use 5/week or 10/week as Your Closest Match

For most users, one of the new weekly options achieves a similar result:

• Previously using "once a day"? → Try 5/week if you were posting on weekdays only, or 10/week if you were posting every day including weekends (the extra posts give coverage across all seven days).
• Previously using "twice a day"? → 14/week is the closest match, averaging 2 posts per day.
• Previously using "alternate days"? → 5/week achieves a similar rhythm — roughly every other day with some natural variation.
• Previously using "three times a day"? → This frequency is no longer available through Auto Posting. See Option 2 below.

Option 2: Fine-Tune Your Schedule Using the Content Calendar

If you need precise daily control — exactly one post every single day, or posts on specific days only — you can adjust your schedule manually after Auto Posting generates your content.

1. Set up Auto Posting with the weekly frequency closest to your needs (e.g., 10/week).
2. Open the Content Calendar after the posts are generated.
3. Drag and drop posts to rearrange them across the dates you want. Move posts from days that have two to days that have none, shift weekend posts to weekdays (or vice versa), and space things out to match your preferred daily rhythm.

The Content Calendar's drag-and-drop feature makes this quick — you're not recreating content, just repositioning what Auto Posting already generated. Think of it as the AI doing 95% of the work (generating and initially scheduling) and you doing the last 5% (fine-tuning the exact placement).

Option 3: Schedule Individual Posts Manually

For maximum control, you can bypass Auto Posting frequency entirely:

1. Use Auto Posting or Create New to generate your content.
2. Go to the Content Calendar.
3. Click on the whitespace on each specific date where you want a post.
4. Select the post, choose your platforms, set the exact time, and schedule.

This gives you full daily control — post exactly when you want, on exactly the days you want, with no frequency constraints.

Mapping Old Frequencies to New Ones

Here's a quick reference if you're switching from the old system:

Tips for Adapting to the New Frequency Options

Start with 5/week if you're unsure

If you're not sure which frequency to choose, start with 5 posts per week. It's a manageable, sustainable cadence that works for most brands and most platforms. You can always increase later once you see how it feels.

Use the Content Calendar as your fine-tuning layer

Think of Auto Posting as your content engine and the Content Calendar as your steering wheel. Auto Posting generates the posts and places them on the calendar. The Content Calendar lets you drag, drop, and rearrange until the schedule is exactly how you want it. The two features are designed to work together.

Don't over-post just because you can

More posts doesn't always mean more engagement. Posting 14 times a week only makes sense if you have genuinely varied, high-quality content for each slot. If the content starts feeling repetitive or filler-like, your audience will disengage. Quality always beats quantity — choose the frequency that matches the amount of genuinely good content you can produce or review.

Review your first week carefully

After setting up Auto Posting with a new frequency for the first time, review the Content Calendar after the first week of posts goes live. Check engagement metrics on each platform and see if the posting rhythm feels right. Adjust the frequency up or down the following month based on what the data tells you.

Common Questions

Can I still post exactly once a day?

Not directly through Auto Posting's frequency settings. But you can achieve it by selecting 10/week (which gives you more than enough posts) and then using the Content Calendar's drag-and-drop feature to rearrange them so there's exactly one post per day.

Can I post three times a day like before?

The new maximum Auto Posting frequency is 14/week (about 2 per day). If you need 3 posts per day (21/week), generate your base content with 14/week through Auto Posting, then create and schedule the additional 7 posts manually via the Content Calendar.

Will my existing Auto Posting setup be affected?

If you had Auto Posting configured with old frequency settings, check your current setup to make sure it has been updated to one of the new weekly options. If your posts look different than expected, reconfigure Auto Posting with the new frequency that best matches your previous cadence using the mapping table above.

Can I mix frequencies across different weeks?

Auto Posting applies the same frequency across the full month. If you want Week 1 at 5 posts and Week 3 at 14 posts, use Auto Posting for the heavier weeks and manually schedule the lighter weeks via the Content Calendar. Alternatively, run Auto Posting one week at a time with different frequency settings for each week.

Why isn't "alternate days" available anymore?

The 5/week option achieves a very similar result — roughly one post every 1.4 days, which in practice means most days get a post with a couple of rest days mixed in. The difference is that the system distributes those 5 posts across the week for optimal engagement rather than rigidly alternating every other day.

Summary

The new Auto Posting frequency options — 5/week, 10/week, and 14/week — replace the previous daily-based settings. For most users, the weekly options are a close or exact match to what you were using before. If you need precise daily control (exactly one post per day, specific days only, or more than 14 posts per week), use the Content Calendar's drag-and-drop feature to rearrange posts after Auto Posting generates them, or schedule individual posts manually. Auto Posting handles the content creation; the Content Calendar gives you the final say on exactly when each post goes live.
