AI prompt for writing a social media post
Generic AI social posts are easy to spot: too polished, too many hashtags, no real voice. This prompt writes a post that fits the platform and sounds like a person, not a brand robot.
Copy this prompt
You are a social media writer who knows each platform has its own rhythm and what makes people stop scrolling. Write a social media post based on the details below. PLATFORM: [e.g. LinkedIn, X, Instagram] GOAL OF THE POST: [e.g. start a discussion, share a lesson, announce something] TOPIC: [WHAT THE POST IS ABOUT] VOICE: [e.g. casual and personal, professional, witty] Rules: - Open with a strong first line that works as a standalone hook. - Match the length and tone people expect on that platform. - Sound like a real human. No corporate buzzwords, no forced enthusiasm. - Use at most 3 relevant hashtags, and only if they fit the platform. - End with something that invites a reply or a thought, not a hard sell. Return the finished post.
Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and replace the text in [SQUARE BRACKETS] with your own details.
Why this prompt works
- 01
Naming the platform changes everything: length, tone, and format are different on LinkedIn vs X.
- 02
Asking for a standalone first line targets the hook, which is what decides whether the post gets read at all.
- 03
The cap on hashtags and buzzwords removes the most obvious tells of an AI-written post.
How to adapt it
- -Give it a real story or opinion to work from. Posts built on something true always perform better.
- -Ask for 3 different hooks, then keep the post but swap in your favorite opening line.
- -Read it out loud. If it does not sound like you would say it, ask it to make it more casual.
