Straight from your brief.
One click moves a drafted post — or its graphic — from your Daily Brief into Compose, with the prompt written for you and a link back to the brief it came from.
Your Daily Brief already drafted the post. The handoff exists for the ten percent of the time you want to change it — one click moves the draft into Compose with the prompt written for you, and a link back to the brief it came from.
Why the handoff exists
The brief's job is to be finished. Most days you read the post, hit copy, and publish it. But sometimes you know something the brief doesn't — a price changed, a job fell through, the angle is wrong for this week. That's when you open it in Compose and argue with it.
The point of the handoff is that you don't start from a blank box. You start from the draft.
Open in Compose — a social card
Every drafted social post in your brief has an Open in Compose action. Clicking it lands you in the composer with:
- The prompt already written, carrying the full post body: “Refine and strengthen this LinkedIn post — keep it on-brand and truthful:” followed by the draft itself.
- The platform already set. It arrives as a social preset, so the reply comes back shaped for the platform it was written for. Platform shapes →
- The right brand — the one the brief belongs to.
- A slim ready-to-go header instead of the usual empty-state cards. You already made your choice; you don't need quick-starts.
The prompt is fully editable before you send it. Add your instruction to the top — “cut it in half”, “lead with the guarantee”, “drop the second paragraph” — and send. This is a normal Compose message and costs the normal 2 credits.
The angle chip on a brief card — the line explaining why this post, this week — stays with the card. It isn't copied into the prompt. If the angle is the thing you want to preserve, say so in your message before you send, or keep the brief open in another tab.
The “From brief” pill
When you arrive from a brief, an orange From brief pill appears in the Compose header. It links straight back to that brief in your Brief Archive — the exact archived brief, not today's.
The thread remembers where it came from. Come back to it next month and the pill is still there, still linking to the right day.
There's also a one-off banner above the empty thread reminding you what you're working from. It disappears the moment the conversation has messages in it.
Open in Compose — the blog card
The blog suggestion in your brief has two destinations, and they are not the same thing:
- The primary action goes to BlogCraft — that's where a real, long-form, SEO-structured article gets written, with a content score and a publish button. This is what you want most of the time.
- Open in Compose is the secondary action. It seeds the composer with a full writing brief: the title, the meta description, the numbered outline, and the format — hook intro, H2 sections matching the outline, a conclusion with a call to action. It comes back as a short-form post of roughly 1,200–1,500 words.
Use Compose when you want a quick draft to react to. Use BlogCraft when you want the article you're going to publish.
Prompt Studio — the graphic handoff
Every social card in your brief also has a Prompt Studio action, for the picture rather than the words.
It opens the two-stage builder with the brief already filled in from the post — the headline pulled out of the copy, your brand rules loaded from your Visual Identity, and a layout picked for you. Choose a layout from the carousel if you want a different one, generate the prompt, edit any of its six sections, then hit Create in Compose.
You land back in the composer in image mode, at the correct aspect ratio, with the prompt loaded. The full Prompt Studio guide →
The same builder is reachable from Visuals in the BlogCraft editor, for a thumbnail or an infographic built from a finished article.
What to do once you're there
Edit the seeded prompt
Put your actual instruction at the top. The draft is already below it — you don't need to repeat any of it.
Send, and keep going if it's not right
It's a thread. Reply with what's still wrong. Each send is a fresh generation at 2 credits.
Rewrite if the substance is right but the voice is off
The Rewrite action under any reply re-runs it through your brand voice and shows you a voice-match score. It's free. How Rewrite works →
Copy or Save
Copy takes it to your clipboard. Save keeps it as a draft. Either way, the original post in your brief is untouched — the handoff never overwrites it.
