How Posta AI agents work
Posta works like a small marketing team. You talk to a lead, and the lead gives the work to the right expert.
What are the main agents?
There are two. You talk to them from the two tabs on the Home page.
| Main agent | Tab | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Create: The Orchestrator | Create | Any request. It understands what you want and hands the work to the right sub-agent. |
| Grow: Media Buyer AI | Grow | Paid ads. It plans, launches, and manages your ad campaigns. |
What are sub-agents?
Sub-agents are experts that each do one job. The main agents send work to them. You can also open any sub-agent yourself from its card in the workspace.
| Sub-agent | What it does | Needs a paid plan? |
|---|---|---|
| Auditor AI | Checks your ad account and lists what to fix. | No |
| SEO/GEO AI | Checks your website for search engines and AI answers. | No |
| Image AI | Makes images and ad visuals. | Yes |
| Video AI | Makes videos from text or an image. | Yes |
| UGC Ad AI | Makes videos of a person talking about your product. | Yes |
| Ads Creator AI | Makes a full set of ads from one product page. | Yes |
| AI Team | Runs tasks in your other apps, like Gmail or Google Sheets. | No |
Agents marked "No" work with the 50 free credits every new account gets. Agents marked "Yes" need a Standard or Pro plan. Some bigger jobs need more credits to start than the free 50: a full ad account audit or a new campaign plan needs at least 60. See Plans and credits.
How does a request find the right agent?
When you type in the Create chat, Posta reads your request and decides which sub-agent should handle it. For example:
- "Audit my website" goes to SEO/GEO AI.
- "Audit my Google Ads for the last 30 days" goes to Auditor AI.
- "Generate an image of my product on a beach" goes to Image AI.
- "Send a summary of yesterday's sales to my email" goes to AI Team.
A simple question, like "What is ROAS?", gets a direct answer with no sub-agent.
What rules does every agent follow?
- You approve first. Anything that spends money or changes a live campaign is shown to you as a plan first. It only runs after you approve it.
- It asks when it is not sure. If your request could mean more than one thing, or you have several ad accounts, the agent asks you to choose instead of guessing.
- It tells you what is missing. If an agent needs an account you have not connected, it shows a Connect button in the chat.
- It checks your credits first. Before a job starts, Posta checks you have enough credits. If not, it tells you, and shows you how to get more.
- It uses your brand. Every agent reads your brand profile on its own, so you do not need to explain your brand each time.
- It keeps a record. Every chat is saved, so you can open a result again later.
- Failed jobs are free. If an image or video fails to generate, the credits go back to your balance.
Can I pick the AI model?
Yes, in some agents. Image AI and Video AI let you choose the image or video model. SEO/GEO AI and AI Team let you choose the chat model: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (recommended), Claude Opus 4.7, Claude Haiku 4.5, GPT-5.4, GPT-5.4 Mini, or GPT-5.4 Nano. Posta picks a good default for you.
