Content, Drafts, Channels, Topics
What do I need before I can add content to the calendar?
Before adding content, you need to set up:
- Topics: These are your content themes (e.g. “Product Launch”, “Holiday Specials”)
- Channels: These are your publishing platforms (e.g., Instagram, Twitter, etc.)
Both Topics and Channels are required to properly organize and display content in the calendar.
How can I add new content to the calendar?

- When creating or editing content, you'll see separate fields for:

- Set both dates to create content that spans multiple days
- The system will display a timespan indicator showing the duration between start and end dates

Benefits:

How are Topic colors generated in the calendar?
Topics in the calendar are automatically assigned colors to help you visually distinguish between different Topics. The color system works as follows:
- Each Topic gets a unique color based on its name
- The same Topic will always have the same color
- Colors are generated using a hash function of the Topic name
- This ensures consistent coloring across sessions
- Colors are designed to be visually distinct and accessible

Topics define the theme of your content, while Campaigns represent time‑bound initiatives that often span multiple pieces of content.
When creating or editing content:

What is Auto-Tagging?
Auto-Tagging is an AI-powered feature that automatically generates relevant tags for your content based on the title and text you write. It uses the Mistral AI model to analyze your content and suggest 3-5 appropriate tags. The system intelligently reuses existing tags from your content library to maintain consistency and avoid tag proliferation.
How does Auto-Tagging work?
Auto-Tagging works by:
- Toggle Switch: Enable auto-tagging using the toggle switch next to the tag input field
- Character Triggers: Tags are generated automatically when you reach 150, 300, 450, 600, etc. characters in your content
- AI Analysis: The AI analyzes your content title and text to generate relevant tags
- Tag Reuse: The system checks existing tags in your content library and prefers reusing relevant ones
- Smart Updates: Tags are updated in real-time as you continue typing
- User Control: You can manually edit the generated tags or add additional tags
How do I enable Auto-Tagging?
To enable auto-tagging:
- When creating or editing content, look for the "Auto Tagging" toggle switch next to the tag input field
- Click the toggle switch to enable auto-tagging
- The switch will show a loading state while generating initial tags
- Your preference is automatically saved and will be remembered for future sessions
Can I still add tags manually?
Yes! Auto-tagging works alongside manual tag input:
- You can edit the AI-generated tags at any time
- Add additional tags manually in the tag input field
- Disable auto-tagging and use only manual tags
- Combine both approaches for the best results
What if Auto-Tagging generates tags I don't want?
You have full control over the generated tags:
- Edit or remove any AI-generated tags
- Add your own tags manually
- Disable auto-tagging if you prefer manual tagging only
- The AI suggestions are just that - suggestions you can modify
What if Auto-Tagging doesn't generate tags?
Auto-tagging may not generate tags if:
- Your content is too short (less than 10 characters)
- The AI cannot identify meaningful topics
- There's insufficient content for analysis
- You can always add tags manually in these cases
How does Auto-Tagging reuse existing tags?
Auto-tagging intelligently reuses existing tags by:
- Library Analysis: The system scans your existing content library for tags
- Relevance Matching: AI compares your content with existing tags to find relevant matches
- Consistency: Prefers using existing tags over creating new ones when they're appropriate
- Tag Proliferation Prevention: Helps maintain a clean, organized tag system
- Smart Suggestions: Only creates new tags when existing ones don't match well
This ensures your tag system remains consistent and organized while still allowing for new tags when needed.
What if Auto-Tagging generates tags in the wrong language?
Auto-Tagging includes language consistency features:
- Language Detection: The AI automatically detects the language of your content
- Matching Tags: Generated tags will match the language of your content
- Existing Tag Preference: The system prefers existing tags that match your content's language
- Manual Override: You can always edit or replace generated tags manually

How does AI Token Usage Tracking work?
Newzy tracks AI token usage to help you monitor your consumption and manage costs:
Token Limits by Plan:
- Pro Plan: 10 million tokens per month
- Team Plan: Unlimited tokens (no limits)
How Token Tracking Works:
- Automatic Tracking: Token usage is automatically recorded after each AI request
- Monthly Tracking: Usage is tracked per user per month with automatic rollover at month boundaries
- Input + Output: Both input tokens (your prompts) and output tokens (AI responses) are counted
- Real-Time Updates: Token usage display updates automatically after each AI request
Viewing Token Usage:
- Token Usage Indicator: A compact indicator in the model selector shows your usage (e.g., "1.5M/10M")
- Progress Display: The indicator displays formatted usage with tooltip for detailed information
- Team Users: Team plan users don't see the indicator (unlimited tokens)
- Pro Users: Pro users see their current usage and remaining tokens
Token Limit Enforcement:
- Pre-Request Check: Token limits are checked before processing AI requests
- Access Denial: Pro users are denied AI access when their monthly limit is exceeded
- Clear Messaging: Error messages explain when token limits are reached
- Monthly Reset: Token usage resets at the beginning of each month
Understanding Token Usage:
- What Counts: Every AI request counts toward your monthly limit (input + output tokens)
- Efficient Usage: Shorter prompts and responses use fewer tokens
- Context Window: Large context windows (content, history, etc.) increase token usage
- Web Search: Web search operations don't count toward token limits (only AI processing does)
Managing Token Usage:
- Monitor Regularly: Check your token usage indicator to track consumption
- Optimize Prompts: Shorter, more focused prompts use fewer tokens
- Manage Context: Remove unnecessary context pills to reduce token usage
- Upgrade to Team: Team plan offers unlimited tokens for heavy AI usage
Note: Token usage is tracked securely with proper database policies ensuring user data isolation. The system automatically handles token recording and limit checking without requiring manual intervention.
