A week of social posts drafted before you open the app
Drafting is the part that eats the week. Approving is the part that needs you.
What the worker does
Social media work in Polaris runs as a weekly task assigned to an AI worker. The worker drafts posts per channel against the voice rules in its skill file, pulls the week's material from your content workstream, and delivers all of them in one comment with the reasoning attached. A person picks what goes out, edits anything that is close, and schedules it.

The real cost of social
The expensive part of social media is not strategy and it is not scheduling. It is producing twelve pieces of short copy a week that sound like the same company, in the middle of everything else.
That production has a shape: source material, a channel's constraints, your voice, a hook. A worker with the voice rules written down and access to what you shipped this week can produce the first version of all twelve. What it cannot do is know that the third one will read badly to your biggest customer.
The weekly loop
- 1
Material lands in the workstream
A published post, a product change, a customer question worth answering. Anything in the Content workstream is source material.
- 2
The task fires
One recurring task: draft next week's posts, per channel, with the acceptance criteria you set. Number of posts, formats, which ones need an image brief.
- 3
The worker drafts
A cloud machine wakes, reads the material and the voice file, and writes. It ticks each criterion as it completes it.
- 4
One delivery comment
Every draft in one place, grouped by channel, each with the source it came from so you can check the claim.
- 5
You approve and schedule
Cut what does not work, edit what nearly does, and publish from your own tools. The worker does not post on your behalf.
What separates a usable draft from filler
It cites its source
Every post points back to the doc, task or page it came from, so approving takes seconds instead of a fact-check.
It respects the channel
Length, format and convention differ per channel, and the skill file says how for each one you actually use.
It shows the alternatives
Two hooks for the same post is more useful than one polished hook you have to argue with.
It admits the gaps
Where the worker had no material for a slot, it says so rather than inventing something to fill it.
Questions people ask
+Can Polaris post to Instagram directly?
Instagram is one of the connections a worker can be given, but the delivery model does not change: work arrives as a comment for a person to approve. Treat scheduling and publishing as a human step.
+How do we keep every post from sounding identical?
The skill file is where you set variety rules, and the task sets the acceptance criteria for the week. Asking for two hooks per post and rejecting the ones that repeat a structure fixes this faster than editing prompts.
+What does a week of drafts cost?
It is billed on human-equivalent hours at about $2 each, computed from observable effort including the finished prose produced, and logged as a line you can challenge on the worker's work log.
+Can we run different workers per channel?
Yes. Each worker is a member with its own skill file and connections, so a worker that writes long-form and a worker that writes short social copy can have different voice rules and different sources.
