From signing up to a confirmed strategy and a running trial — the whole first ten minutes.
Setup is one flow, and it ends somewhere unusual: before you’ve written anything, Depost AI has
already read your LinkedIn history and drafted a strategy for you to approve or correct.This page walks the whole thing. If you’re already inside the product, skip to
your first week.
Fastest route is Continue with LinkedIn, Google, Microsoft, or X — one
click, no password to set.By email instead: enter your business email and accept the terms, then you’ll get a
verification code. Enter that, add your name and a password of at least 8 characters,
and you’re in.
Signing up with LinkedIn is not the same as connecting your LinkedIn account. That’s a
separate step two along, and it’s the one that actually lets Depost AI read your posts and
publish for you. Using LinkedIn here only saves you a password.
You’ll be offered Depost Sync, a Chrome extension that keeps your posts and their
performance up to date after setup.It’s optional and you can skip it. Setup doesn’t depend on it, and nothing later breaks
without it — your analytics simply stop reflecting what you published after today. You can
add it whenever.
Why this is safe to install. Depost Sync only reads, and only your own posts and
stats. It adds nothing to LinkedIn’s interface, runs on a schedule rather than
continuously, and stays well inside normal usage limits. It never posts, comments,
messages, or visits profiles for you, so it has no effect on your account standing.
You paste your profile URL. Depost AI doesn’t ask for your LinkedIn password.
It then reads your profile and your recent published posts, up to your last 40, and shows
you who it found so a wrong match can’t quietly become your account.
If it’s wrong, No, use a different profile sends you back. This read happens once, and
everything in the next step is built from it.
If your profile is new or you’ve published very little, setup still completes. The report
says how many posts it worked from, so you can see for yourself whether it had enough to
go on. Come back to it once you have more history.
This is the step worth slowing down for. It takes about a minute, and it tells you what
it’s doing while you wait.
What comes back is a full report, starting with what it found on your profile:
It scores your positioning and each part of your profile, then splits what it found into
what’s working and what to improve:
Read the right-hand panel closely. It’s the specific, checkable version of “your content
could be better”, and it’s drawn from your own posts rather than general advice.Then it turns that into things to do, and things to write:
What we’d do next is prioritised, and each item says why it’s there before it says what
to do. Post ideas to start with gives you concrete first posts, each tagged with the
format and the audience it’s aimed at, so you can hand one straight to chat.Then it asks you to Confirm your strategy — your role, your content language, who you’re
writing for, and what you want from LinkedIn.
Everything Depost AI writes afterwards is aimed at the strategy you confirm here. If the
audience or the offer is wrong, every draft will be quietly wrong in the same way, and it
won’t look like an error. It’ll just read as slightly off. Read it properly.
You’re not stuck with it. Ask chat to “show me my current strategy” any time, and change
it in conversation. See your content strategy.
Pick a plan and add a card. You pay nothing today.
What the 7 days include
10 AI posts, 5 AI infographics, and 700 AI replies, so you can properly try
everything rather than sampling it. All other plan limits apply in full during the
trial.
When you actually get charged
Your subscription starts automatically after 7 days, and your full plan limits unlock
the moment it does. If you’d rather have those limits sooner, you can start it early
from the billing page.
Cancelling
Cancel during the trial and you are not charged at all. Cancel after it, and your plan
stays active until the end of the period you’ve paid for.
The limits
The free trial is available once per account, and covers one LinkedIn account.
Plans differ on how much of the workspace you get rather than which features work: the
number of brands and team members, and your monthly allowance of posts,
replies, campaigns, lead lists and prospects. Current prices are on the
pricing page in the product — they’re the one thing here that changes.
Running clients? Brands are the axis that matters — one per client. Check the brand count
before you pick. See running client work.
