About the AI assistant

Try asking: "Write 3 DEV posts about our weekend offer, check them against the DEV rules and schedule them for Friday at 10 am." It checks things like this first: Markdown article. The title comes from the Title setting or the first line. Up to 4 tags.

Tips for DEV

  • Write in markdown. If the title setting is empty, the first line becomes the title.
  • DEV allows up to 4 tags. Pick the ones people follow, like javascript or webdev.
  • Set the original article link when you cross-post from your own blog.
  • Turn off "Publish right away" to save the article as a draft on DEV first.

Example DEV post

Title: How we cut our Docker image from 1.2 GB to 180 MB Tags: docker, devops, tutorial Text: A step by step guide with the Dockerfile before and after...

A concrete result in the title and tags that match the topic. This is sample text to show the format, not a real customer post.

Checklist before you schedule a DEV post

  • The text is final. DEV has no practical length limit, so read it once more.
  • No more than 10 photos or files are attached.
  • The channel sits under the right customer, so approval rules apply.
  • A time is picked, or the post uses the next free slot.

How approval, AI and reports work on DEV

Approval. If the DEV channel belongs to a customer with approval turned on, every post waits for a yes. The client sees a preview on a review link and can approve, ask for changes or comment. A post that is changed after approval goes back for a new yes.

AI. The AI assistant can fit a post to DEV, in your brand voice. It can also translate it and write alt text for pictures. Nothing changes until you accept.

Analytics. Postozo does not read post results from DEV, so there are no DEV numbers on the analytics page. You can still count clicks on your links with short links.

Bulk upload. Plan many DEV posts in a spreadsheet and upload them as a CSV file with bulk upload: up to 500 lines, each checked against DEV's rules before anything is created.

Client reports. DEV posts are counted in client reports, without network numbers, because DEV does not share them.

Client accounts. A client can connect their own DEV account from a client connect link, filling in API key on the link page, so no password changes hands.
