OwlyWriter AI is Hootsuite's integrated AI writing feature, embedded directly within the Hootsuite social media management platform. It generates social media captions, post ideas, repurposed content from existing links or blog posts, and campaign hashtag suggestions — all without leaving the Hootsuite composer. For teams already managing their social media through Hootsuite, it removes the friction of tab-switching to an external AI writing tool.
The repurposing feature is OwlyWriter's most practical offering: paste in a link to a blog post or article, and the AI generates multiple platform-specific social posts (LinkedIn version, Twitter version, Instagram version) based on the content. This is the workflow that saves real time for content teams who write long-form content and want to maximize its social distribution without manually adapting each post for each platform.
As a standalone AI writing tool, OwlyWriter is fairly standard — the output quality is adequate but not exceptional compared to dedicated AI writers. Its value is entirely in the integration: if you're scheduling posts in Hootsuite anyway, having AI assistance there is genuinely convenient. If you're evaluating your full social media tool stack and don't yet use Hootsuite, the AI writing features alone aren't a compelling reason to choose it over alternatives with stronger AI capabilities.
