Quick Post is designed to simplify content creation, helping you to produce professional, screen-ready posts in a matter of seconds. Whether you need to get a message out quickly or schedule regular communications, Quick Post handles the design work with no design skills are required.

Now, Quick Post has become even more powerful with the introduction of two key features: text formatting and QR codes for file downloads. These enhancements provide more control over how your content appears on screen and how your audience interacts with it, making content creation faster and more effective than ever.

With these enhancements, Quick Post can help you by:

  • Saving time: Automating tasks like summarizing content and formatting posts.
  • Ensuring precision: AI ensures polished, professional posts without manual design work.
  • Simplifying processes: Automatically structuring content from file formats like PDFs, Word documents, and images into screen-ready posts.
  • Enhancing creativity: Creating high-quality content without the need for specialized design skills.

How Does Quick Post Work?

Quick Post is a simple, user-friendly content creator designed to get your message on screen with minimal effort. There’s no advanced design editor or steep learning curve—just type your message, add a link or image, and you’re ready to go.

With the power of AI, Quick Post automatically extracts text from PDFs, images, websites, and Word documents, applying formatting and design for you. This ensures professional, screen-ready posts without worrying about structure or layout.

You can further customize your content with Style Packs and maintain brand consistency with Themes, all without the complexity of traditional design tools. Quick Post even generates QR codes for easy access to downloads from links, PDFs, or Word documents.

Text Formatting: Better Structure, Greater Readability

Quick Post now includes text formatting to improve on-screen readability, allowing your audience to quickly scan and absorb key points. By breaking content into manageable sections using line breaks or bullet points, you can ensure the information is clear and easy to consume, while personalizing it to look exactly as intended.

With text formatting, you can:

  • Emphasize key points using bold, italic, underlined, or strikethrough text.
  • Break up content with line breaks, bullet points, numbered lists, and quote blocks.
  • Highlight key information to make important messages stand out.

How Does It Work:

  1. Type or paste your content into the text box (e.g., "Important Safety Reminder: Wear Your Hardhats").
  2. Apply text formatting to add emphasis or make your content easier to read. Use bullet points to break down important details.
  3. Upload an image using the “Include Media” option to visually complement the text.
  4. Paste a URL into the "Include URL for additional information" field if you want to link to a website. Quick Post will automatically generate a QR code for easy access to detailed content.
  5. Preview the post to see how it will appear on screen.
  6. Once satisfied, hit "Create" to finalize your screen-ready post.

Download Files Via QR Code

Quick Post now allows you to generate a QR code from uploaded PDF or Word documents used in the text summarizer. This feature gives your audience easy access to the full document for additional information — there’s no need to upload files to third-party platforms or create public URLs. It also ensures secure distribution of files across your digital signage network.

By scanning the QR code, viewers can download detailed resources, reports, or documents that complement your on-screen content. This is ideal for sharing in-depth information while keeping the content on your screens concise.

How do we keep your documents secure?

One important feature is that the QR code is not static—it refreshes whenever the content is brought back onto the screens or when the app refreshes. This ensures enhanced security by preventing a static QR code from being permanently associated with a document.
