Build any Facebook Pages and LinkedIn automation you can describe
Your own rules
Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.
Any number of apps
One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.
AI where it helps
Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.
On a schedule or on each event
Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.
For example, ask your assistant
Rewrite each post for LinkedIn in under 700 characters with no emojis, and for Facebook in a friendlier tone with one question at the end.
If posting to one network fails, retry once on the next run and email me if it still fails, without reposting to the network that worked.
Use cases
Why people connect Facebook Pages and LinkedIn
How the two apps work together
- A schedule or a check every few minutes finds the next post to publish, from a list, a feed or a topic you give.
- The script writes or adapts the text for each network and posts to your Facebook Page and LinkedIn profile or page.
- Post IDs and errors are saved, so it does not post the same item twice and you can see what failed.
Small business owners posting in two places
One update is written once and posted to both the Facebook Page and LinkedIn. The owner stops copying text between sites.
B2B marketers adjusting tone per network
The same announcement is rewritten by AI in a casual tone for Facebook and a professional tone for LinkedIn. Each audience gets a post that fits.
Recruiters sharing open roles
New job openings are posted to the company Facebook Page and LinkedIn. More candidates see each role.
Agencies running client social
An agency posts client news to both networks on a schedule. Posting stays regular even when the team is busy.
