AI influencers for your brand
Create a consistent AI creator who posts for you every day, in the same face and voice, on your accounts.

Post or schedule to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads and Pinterest from the same chat.
Remembers your brand
Logo, colours, tone and audience live in your VidGuy brand kit, so every piece looks like you made it.
Autopilot
Can OpenClaw run your marketing while you work on the business?

Ask for drafts, review them in VidGuy, then approve.

Hand a daily routine to a VidGuy content agent and pause it any time.

Always on
It runs routines on a schedule, not only when you open a chat.
Your chat apps
Talk to it from Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack or Discord.
Skills

Is it safe to let OpenClaw post for you?
You stay in control of every account and every credit.
- OAuth sign-in through your VidGuy account. No password or key pasted into a chat.
- OpenClaw only reaches the brands and social accounts you connected in VidGuy.
- Ask for drafts instead of publishing when you want to review first.
- Your agent sees the credit cost before it generates, so there are no surprise charges.

No. Scheduling is the last step. VidGuy makes the content itself: UGC-style videos with AI actors, carousels, slides, memes and AI influencers, all in your brand kit. Then it posts them.
