AKA: We gave you more ways to look like you’re online 24/7 (when you’re actually touching grass)


Hey PostHero fam! ๐Ÿ‘‹

New year, new features, new excuses to automate your way to LinkedIn fame. Let’s dive into what we’ve been cooking up this January.


Auto-Plug: Your Comments, On Autopilot โœˆ๏ธ

You know that feeling when you post a banger, but then… crickets? Nobody’s engaging, the algorithm is judging you, and you’re refreshing like it’s 2008 and you’re waiting for someone to write on your Facebook wall.

Enter Auto-Plug โ€” scheduled comments for your posts.

Now you can queue up comments to drop on your own posts at the perfect time. First comment? Boom, scheduled. Follow-up context? Already loaded. That witty reply you thought of in the shower? Set it and forget it.

AI-Generated Comments (Because Writer’s Block is Real)

Not sure what to comment? Same. That’s why we added AI comment generation with 4 different flavors:

  • General Comment โ€” Your classic, reliable engagement booster
  • Question โ€” Get people talking (works 60% of the time, every time)
  • Random Comment โ€” For when you want to keep things spicy ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ
  • Long Story Comment โ€” When you have thoughts and you need to share them

Just click, pick your vibe, and let AI do the heavy lifting. Your keyboard will thank you.

Add Images to Your Comments ๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ

Sometimes words aren’t enough. Sometimes you need to drop a screenshot, a chart, or a meme that perfectly captures your point.

Now you can add images directly to your scheduled comments. More context, more engagement, more “wow, this person really has their stuff together” energy.


AI Hook Generation in the New Editor โœจ

First impressions matter. Your hook is basically the pickup line of your post โ€” and let’s be honest, most of us are terrible at pickup lines.

That’s why we added AI Hook Generation right in the new editor.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Open the editor
  2. Click “Hooks” on the top-right toolbar
  3. Head to the “Your Hooks” tab
  4. Generate hooks that actually stop the scroll

No more staring at a blank screen wondering how to start your post. No more “I need to tell you something…” hooks that sound like a breakup text. Just solid, attention-grabbing openers ready to go.


TL;DR

FeatureWhat It DoesWhy You’ll Love It
Auto-PlugSchedule comments on your postsEngagement while you sleep
AI Comment Generation4 types of AI-generated commentsBeat writer’s block forever
Image CommentsAdd images to scheduled commentsShow, don’t just tell
AI Hook GenerationGenerate scroll-stopping openersNever stare at a blank page again

What’s Next?

We’re just getting started in 2026. More features, more automation, more reasons to tell your friends “no seriously, I’m not a robot, I just use PostHero.”

Got feedback? Feature requests? Memes you want to share? Hit us up โ€” we’re always listening.

Happy posting! ๐ŸŽ‰
