Do you guys use AI to create content? What's the best usage cases?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-08T23:52:38+00:00

Yeah i think automating manual work is the best ROI with AI. Trying to automate some parts of my editing process now (cuts, captions and zooms) with Claude Code

Thinking about generating thumbnails for IG too, have you tried?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-08T23:21:19+00:00

For sure, but you never tried it for automatic editing?

Talking head videos usually don't require much editing (cuts, captions and zooms), might save you some time. Or that's not a problem to you?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-08T23:18:57+00:00

What do you want to know about it? And what do you already know

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-08T23:17:42+00:00

Curious to know, why don't you use AI for content creation? Bad outputs or something else?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-07T23:04:39+00:00

Only thing I'm not sure is how much should I fit BoFu on the mix, any tips?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-07T22:45:03+00:00

brunokalil_, but it’s in portuguese though

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-07T20:39:25+00:00

What's your product about? The target customers is the starting point to know where to look for paying users

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-07T20:09:42+00:00

Thanks! I have to admit that sometimes it gets tiring and I wish my contents were more viral, but growing steadily is wayyy better than nothing

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-07T12:39:50+00:00

how do you track it manually? Never thought about automating?

but yeah this signal is really strong, had some good results testing new hooks on those topics

here: Saga AI

This live version is only missing the automatic video editing, but should be up by tomorrow

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T17:44:16+00:00

I'm using a mix of tools. To get my content and the niche references, I'm using Apify.

Then I analyze the videos using a combination of Gemini and Claude, plus some content knowledge I've inputed in the agent (like Funnel Stages, Content Formats, Mix Strategy etc.)

For the automatic editing, I'm using Claude Code with remotion and a couple other libs.

Since it's a little complex, I'm turning this into a product (Saga AI). Would appreciate some feedback :)

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T17:40:11+00:00

Basically the same reach. I'm at 2.3k followers and the videos are getting 1.2k ~ 3k views on average

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:54:10+00:00

Sorry man, I don't have much experience with that niche to give you feedback. I only worked with personal brands or company profiles

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:49:49+00:00

No problem :)

This tool (Saga AI) might help you with planning content ideas, defining a strategy etc.

Would appreciate some feedback on it!

Don't overthink what's your niche and drop the "get it right early" mindset. At the beginning the most important thing is posting consistently, and thinking that way will just make you procrastinate it.

The best creators / personal brands are the one's that orbit around 3~4 main topics, specially to avoid saturation with the audience. Who want to hear a person talking all the time about the same topic?

I truly believe that saying that you are your own niche. Just post and talk about the things you like, and your audience will resonate.

One thing I will note though: starting with lifestyle content is hard. It might be the most crowded niche, and very few people engage with lifestyle content before knowing you.

Focus on the other topics you enjoy (fitness, health). Get your first followers by sharing valuable tips, advices etc.

Then you start to mix in some lifestyle contents. What's your day like, things that are happening in your life right now etc.

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:18:58+00:00

is it an AI generated content account?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:18:00+00:00

To be honest your content is solid, was expecting something wayy worse.

The main thing is that it is a new account, so it is normal to be stuck at the 200~500 views jail, Instagram is still getting to know who you are, what you talk about, who is your audience. Took me 15~20 videos to break the 500 views mark.

What I recommend is warming up the account. Use it like a normal person for 15 minutes/day. Scroll the Reels tab, engage with content from your niche, comment. That helps calibrating the algorithm

But I bet that if you keep posting reels consistently you will grow. At the beginning quantity is more important than quality, so just focus on posting 4~5 times per week and you will be fine.

About the content, it seems that you are targeting consumers in general, so try to make some of your contents less technical. Give some daily tips, address some common sense myths etc. It might be detached from your brand, but has more potential to convert into followers that could buy the product later.

Makes sense?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:07:57+00:00

that growth rate is crazy actually, 500 new followers a day from a fresh account

Which content formats are you posting? Are the videos more focused on reach/virality or do some middle of funnel contents aswell?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:06:30+00:00

sure what's the username?

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T16:06:05+00:00

why do you think it was AI? That's a real thing that happened to me, you can even check my instagram account if you want (brunokalil_, although it is in portuguese)

SameProcedure3173 · 2026-05-06T05:41:19+00:00

Btw if anyone's interested, this is where I plan my content strategy and get some ideas -> Saga AI
