How RadiusLocal.ai Social works

What Social does, and what it doesn't

Most owners know they should post every week. Few have the hour it takes to think of an idea, write it, make an image, resize it and post it in five places. Social does that work in one workspace, called Social Studio.

The job breaks into six steps, and the rest of this guide follows them in order: connect your accounts, teach it your business once, create, tailor each idea for each network, approve (or let Autopilot run), and publish.

It is just as important to know what Social is not. It is a posting product. It does not answer comments or messages for you, it does not monitor what people say about you elsewhere, and it does not track competitors. It does not promise reach, followers or results, and its creation has limits (described below). It is not an unlimited-generation plan.

Connecting your accounts

Social is built to connect directly to 11 networks: Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, Threads, Pinterest, Google Business Profile, Bluesky, Mastodon, TikTok and YouTube. There is no third-party scheduler in the middle and no separate subscription to one.

1. Choose a network. In Accounts, pick the network you want to add.
2. Sign in on the network's own page. Your password is never given to Social. Bluesky is the one exception to the sign-in flow: it connects with your handle and a Bluesky app password, which you can revoke at any time.
3. Pick the business page or profile. Choose the page, profile, location or channel Social may post to, such as your LinkedIn company page or a Google Business Profile location.
4. Confirm it belongs to your business. Social asks you to confirm each account is yours before it can post there.

One business can connect up to 10 profiles. If a network expires a connection or changes its permissions, the account shows Reconnect. Sign in again and your posts and history stay where they are. You can disconnect any profile at any time.

Teaching it your business

Everything Social writes comes from what you save in Brand & schedule. This is the most important ten minutes of setup.

• Business facts. Anything your posts may say that you know is accurate: services, service area, hours, how to book, and offers or guarantees that already appear on your website.
• Voice and audience. How you sound and who you're talking to.
• A "never say" list. Claims and topics your posts must avoid, such as treatment promises for a health practice.
• Brand. Up to five brand colors and your default website link.
• Posting times. The days and times you like to post, in your business's time zone. Autopilot needs at least three weekly times.

When a draft makes a claim your saved facts don't support, Social holds it for your review instead of letting it go out. That is the main safeguard against a post saying something about your business that isn't true. If you want a refresher on why these facts matter beyond social media, read Your business facts are infrastructure now.

Creating posts and images

You can let Social plan the week, or work one post at a time.

• Plan this week. Social creates up to three campaign ideas, each from a different angle. It uses five content pillars: teach something useful, show your work, build trust, start a conversation, and promote a service. The weekly allowance starts fresh on Monday.
• Help me write. Writing help for a single post you're putting together yourself.
• Create image. An original image in the style you choose: editorial photography, modern illustration, or a branded message card with your colors and name. Images come in square, portrait (4:5), vertical (9:16) and wide (16:9) shapes.
• Your own media. Upload your own photos and finished videos to a private media library and use them in any post. PNG, JPEG, WebP, MP4, MOV and WebM files are accepted.

Each campaign includes up to four image revisions. Everything Social creates is saved to your library, even if you change the post in the meantime. Generated images are labeled as illustrative in your library.

One idea, the right version for every network

When you select several accounts for one post, Social prepares a version for each one, with a live preview. You can edit the shared copy, or customize one channel without touching the rest. Before you can approve, Social checks each network's length, format and media rules. It tells you what to fix rather than quietly cutting your words.

A single campaign sent to seven connected accounts becomes seven posts, all from one weekly allowance.

Scheduling and publishing

The calendar shows every post, its networks and its status in month, week and list views, in your business's time zone. Drag a draft to a new day, filter by network or status, or group a seasonal push into a campaign. When you schedule, you can choose an exact time or "use next open slot" to drop the post into your next saved posting time.

Each post moves through clear statuses, with a separate result for every account:

• Draft and In review: still private.
• Scheduled: approved and waiting for its time.
• Checking delivery: the network accepted it and Social is confirming it.
• Published and verified: Social confirmed it is live, wherever the network allows that check.
• Needs attention: something to look at, with a message saying what.

If a network's answer is unclear, Social checks rather than posting again, so an uncertain result does not turn into a double post. Where networks report them, you can see likes, comments, shares, views and impressions for each post. You can download your whole workspace record at any time.

Approvals and your team

Each plan includes three seats, counting the owner. Invite an office manager or marketing helper by email and give them a role. Team members can draft and leave review notes, which stay with the post's history.

Approval is tied to the exact version you saw, including its media and each network's version. If anyone changes the post afterwards, it needs approval again. What you approved is what goes out.

Autopilot

Autopilot keeps the weekly rhythm going without you starting it each Monday. Setting it up takes five steps:

1. Connect your business profiles.
2. Teach it your facts, voice, colors and things to avoid.
3. Pick times: at least three weekly posting times.
4. Write a brief: what your audience should hear about, such as tips, services or questions.
5. Confirm the plan: choose review or automatic mode and the profiles it covers.

Then you pick one of two modes:

Automatic mode runs only under the exact plan you confirmed. It holds by itself, and your saved content waits for you, if any of these change:

• Your business facts, brand or posting schedule.
• A connected account, its identity or its posting permission.
• Someone edits an automatic draft (that post then needs individual review).
• Automatic publishing is switched off for the workspace.
• Your subscription or Video Producer access.

Review the plan and confirm it again to resume. You can also pause Autopilot with one click. Pausing stops new automatic creation and publishing. Anything already being created may finish and is saved for you to review, and posts you approved yourself stay scheduled unless you cancel them.

Two details to know. Autopilot uses the same three-campaigns-a-week allowance as "Plan this week". And TikTok posts always wait for your individual review, so a plan that includes TikTok runs in review mode. Everything else can still be automatic in a separate plan.

Social vs Social Pro

Both plans cover one business and are billed monthly in US dollars, with no setup fee and no contract. Prices are as listed on the Social pricing page.

Video Producer turns a campaign into a short narrated video: 15, 30 or 60 seconds, vertical (9:16) for reels, Shorts and TikTok, or wide (16:9) for YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn. Each video has original images, a professional synthetic voice, an original music score and burned-in captions. It never uses your face or voice. On Autopilot, you choose whether one, two or three of your weekly campaigns are videos. Posting videos you already have is part of the $49 plan.

Changing plans. You can upgrade from Social to Social Pro in Billing. Pro starts as soon as your payment is confirmed, and the unused part of your current Social month is refunded to your card. Everything you've created stays in your workspace.

Cancelling. Cancel renewal in Billing. You keep full access until the end of the period you paid for. After that, new creation, approvals and posting stop, and your saved content stays available to read and download for 90 days. There is no free trial; a live demo is the way to see the whole product first.

Common questions

Can I sign up today?

Not yet. Social is launching soon. You can book a live demo, or use the Get started form on social.radiuslocal.ai to tell us about your business, and the team will be in touch.

Will it post something I didn't approve?

Only if you choose automatic mode and confirm the plan as the owner. In review mode, every finished post waits for you.

Can it invent a review or a statistic?

It is built not to. Posts are written from the facts you saved, and claims your facts don't support are held for your review. Video Producer follows the same rule: no made-up statistics, customers or testimonials.
