Publishing to X (Twitter)

How ReelBot supports X​

ReelBot supports direct publishing to X (Twitter) through connected channels.

This allows you to:

  • publish generated videos without leaving ReelBot
  • reuse videos across multiple posts
  • manage drafts and published posts in one place

Publishing to X is optional — you can always download videos and post manually if you prefer.

Connecting an X account​

To publish to X, you must first connect an account.

You can do this from:

  • Channels, or
  • the publish dialog when creating a post

Each connected X account appears as a separate channel and counts toward your plan’s channel limit.

You can remove a channel at any time.

Publishing a video to X​

You can publish to X from two places:

  • the Review screen after video generation
  • the Projects page for completed videos

Publishing steps​

  1. Choose a video (generated or uploaded)
  2. Enter a post text (optional but recommended)
  3. Select the X channel
  4. Publish immediately or save as a draft

ReelBot sends the video and post content directly to X.

Drafts and reuse​

ReelBot separates videos from posts.

This means you can:

  • save draft posts for X
  • publish the same video multiple times
  • reuse videos across different posting strategies

Drafts are useful for:

  • spacing posts over time
  • preparing content in batches
  • revisiting copy later

Video format considerations for X​

ReelBot generates videos that are compatible with X by default.

Best practices for X:

  • keep videos concise
  • ensure captions are readable on small screens
  • avoid excessive on-screen text
  • prioritize clarity in the first few seconds

Vertical videos work well for X’s feed and timeline viewing.

Captions and post text​

On X:

  • the video carries most of the message
  • post text provides context or framing

Tips:

  • don’t repeat the script verbatim
  • add a short hook or takeaway
  • keep post text concise and readable

ReelBot does not auto-generate post text by default, allowing you to keep messaging intentional.

Publishing limits and usage​

Publishing to X counts toward:

  • your plan’s post limit
  • the number of connected channels allowed

If a post fails to publish, ReelBot will indicate the status and allow you to retry or adjust.

Using X as part of a CreatorOps strategy​

X works best when used as:

  • a distribution channel for ideas
  • a place for concise insights
  • a complement to higher-volume platforms

Many creators:

  • generate once in ReelBot
  • post variations of the same video over time
  • pair videos with different text framing

ReelBot’s project-based system supports this reuse naturally.

When to publish manually instead​

You may prefer manual posting if:

  • you want to experiment heavily with copy
  • you’re responding to real-time conversations
  • you’re testing platform-specific tactics

ReelBot supports this by making downloads easy and reusable.

The takeaway​

ReelBot’s X integration is designed to:

  • reduce friction
  • preserve control
  • support reuse and consistency

It helps you publish efficiently without turning distribution into a black box.
