## How it works. From today's special to posted, in chat.

Four steps. Every post is saved to Drafts, and you choose when it goes out.

1. 01Set up your Brand Identity oncePaste your restaurant's website. Velocity saves your voice, tone, colors, fonts, logo and audience as your [Brand Identity](https://www.velocity.li/brand-identity), so every special looks and sounds like your place.![Velocity's chat asked to make a fall menu post in the brand's style, with the finished FALL MENU design below the request](https://www.velocity.li/home-features/on-brand.webp)
2. 02Send the special in plain wordsAdd your food photos and say where the post should go. The agent [writes a caption for each platform](https://www.velocity.li/content-creation-tools) and [designs the post](https://www.velocity.li/ai-social-media-image-generator) in about a minute, keeping your dish as photographed.![Six photos uploaded in Velocity's chat with the request to turn them into posts for next week, and all six scheduled to Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn](https://www.velocity.li/publishing-page/bulk-operations.webp)
3. 03Schedule it, or leave the time to the agentEdit the preview or ask for changes, then [schedule](https://www.velocity.li/scheduling) it in plain words. Leave the time out and the agent picks the best time for your audience and platform; on Free, a common best time for each platform.[Find your best time to post](https://www.velocity.li/best-time-to-post-on-social-media)![Velocity's chat asked to post the autumn menu launch to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok and X on Tuesday, with a preview for each and all five scheduled](https://www.velocity.li/blog-screenshots/ai-social-media-management/velocity--agent-chat-schedule-five-platforms.webp)
4. 04See the week on one calendarEvery scheduled post sits on the [content calendar](https://www.velocity.li/content-calendar) by day, week or month: change a caption, swap a photo or choose Edit with agent. From Pro, [analytics](https://www.velocity.li/analytics) shows engagement and your top posts.![Velocity's month calendar for October 2026 with posts scheduled to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, X and Bluesky](https://www.velocity.li/scheduling-gallery/calendar.webp)

## The specials board changes daily. Your posts keep up.

Ask in plain words. The agents work from your Brand Identity, your food photos and the details you give them.

### Daily specials

Send the dish, the price and a photo. The agent writes a caption for each platform and designs the post in your colors, with your price as written.

You ask“Today's special: lemon garlic salmon with greens, $26, while it lasts. Post it on Instagram and Facebook with this photo.”

### Menu updates

A new dish, a seasonal menu or new opening hours: tell the agent what changed and it drafts the announcement for each platform in your brand's voice.

You ask“Our winter menu starts Monday: short rib pie $22, pumpkin ravioli $19, apple crumble $9. Announce it on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok on Saturday.”

### Events and offers

Quiz night, live music or an offer you set: give the date, the time and the deal, and the agent designs the post and a matching [Story](https://www.velocity.li/stories-scheduler).

You ask“Live jazz this Thursday, 7 to 10 pm, no cover charge. Make an Instagram post and a Story, and schedule both for Wednesday.”
