Last month a customer told us she keeps a paper notebook for flights, because our app stopped working without Wi-Fi. That's the whole reason offline mode exists. From today, every edit is saved on your device and syncs when you land. If a teammate changed the same thing, you choose what to keep. Sometimes a paper notebook is the clearest roadmap input.

Quick answer

Can Claude post to LinkedIn?

Yes, through the SimplePost connector. Connect your LinkedIn profile in SimplePost and connect SimplePost in Claude. Claude creates the post in SimplePost, which publishes it to your profile now or at the scheduled time.

Before you start

What you need

  • LinkedIn connected in SimplePost (personal profile).
  • The SimplePost connector from the Claude directory, authorized with the same SimplePost account.
  • The source material: notes, a document or a draft you can paste or attach in Claude.

Workflow

Step by step: how to post to LinkedIn from Claude

  1. Connect LinkedIn and Claude

    Connect LinkedIn in SimplePost Accounts, then connect SimplePost from the Claude directory and enable it in the chat.

  2. Give Claude the source

    Paste or attach the document. Claude reads it in the conversation; SimplePost only receives the finished post.

    Prompt
    Here is our launch spec. Write a LinkedIn post for my profile that explains the problem it solves for customers, in plain language, under 1,200 characters, no hashtags.

  3. Refine the voice

    Ask for changes the way you would to a colleague: shorter, warmer, one concrete example.

    Prompt
    Make it more personal and add one concrete customer example from the spec.

  4. Save a draft and preview

    Claude saves a draft to your LinkedIn account in SimplePost and shows the preview.

    Prompt
    List my SimplePost accounts, save this as a LinkedIn draft and show me the preview.

  5. Schedule

    Pick a time; Claude resolves it in your timezone.

    Prompt
    Schedule the draft for Thursday at 09:00 in my timezone.

Before you schedule

Check these details

  • Facts and names from the source are correct in the post.
  • The post is under 3,000 characters and the opening works before "see more".
  • The draft targets your LinkedIn account.
  • Visibility is public, or connections only if you asked for it.

Troubleshooting

If something gets in the way

Claude cannot read the attachment

Attachments are for Claude's context; if you need the file as post media, use a public URL or the web composer.

No LinkedIn account found

Connect LinkedIn in SimplePost and ask Claude to list accounts again.

The connector is missing

Connector availability depends on your Claude plan and organization settings.
