Beast Mode
Automated bulk content generation to keep your pipeline running hands-free.
What is Beast Mode?
Beast Mode is Techne's automation engine. Configure it once, and it will discover topics, generate blog posts, create social variants, and optionally enhance content with research — on a schedule you define.
Configuration
Access Beast Mode from the Calendar → Automation tab or the dashboard card. Configure:
- Topic keywords — Guide content discovery toward your niche.
- Frequency — Daily, every 2 days, every 3 days, weekly, or biweekly.
- Publish time — Hour and minute (in your timezone) when posts are generated.
- Tone — The writing style for generated content.
- Platforms — Toggle blog, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter/X, and featured image generation.
- Research enhancement — Automatically enrich posts with web research.
- Approval required — If enabled, posts queue for review before publishing.
Plan behavior
Beast Mode is designed for paid plans. Free plans can view settings, but automated blog/image/research generation and activation are restricted.
Webflow and WordPress publishing from Beast Mode also require active integrations on eligible plans.
Credit management
Beast Mode respects your subscription's credit limits:
- Set a monthly credit cap to prevent runaway usage.
- Set a pause percentage — Beast Mode pauses when credits reach this threshold.
- View credits used this period in the Beast Mode dashboard card.
Per-run costs are weighted by enabled outputs (topic discovery, blog post, social variants, image, and optional research enhancement).
Approval workflow
When Require Approval is enabled:
- Beast Mode generates content and queues it for review.
- Visit the Content page to see pending items.
- Review, edit if needed, then approve or reject.
- Approved content is published to your configured platforms.
Best practices
- Start with Require Approval enabled to calibrate quality.
- Use specific topic keywords rather than broad terms for better relevance.
- Set your credit cap to 70-80% of your monthly allowance to leave room for manual generation.
- Review the first 5-10 generated posts to ensure the tone and topics match your expectations.
