Updated September 30, 2026
NOWScale is one place to research ideas, publish to your social channels, improve your videos, and follow up on performance and comments. This guide shows what each area does and where to find it.
Main areas
Every area is in the sidebar on the left. On a phone, use the tab bar and More.
| Area | What you do there |
|---|---|
| Home | See your setup checklist and what needs attention. |
| Calendar | Plan and schedule posts. Switch between Calendar and Board views. |
| Content | Manage the videos on your connected channels: details, thumbnails, captions and comments. Open a YouTube video to use Optimize. |
| Image Studio | Create and refine images, such as thumbnails, from a text idea and reference images. |
| Comments | Reply to and moderate comments across your channels. AI Replies can answer and moderate comments for you. |
| Analytics | Review how your content performed across your channels. |
| Achievements | See the milestones you have earned. |
| Research | Explore Keywords, Videos, Shorts, Channels and Thumbnails in your niche to find your next idea. |
| Connections | Connect and manage the accounts you publish to. |
Get started
- Open Connections and connect a YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or Facebook account.
- Select Create in the top bar to start a New post.
- Add your video and details, then pick a date and time to schedule it.
- Track the post in Calendar, then review results in Analytics.
The Get set up checklist on Home walks you through the same steps.
Find things quickly
- Press Ctrl K (or Cmd K on Mac) to search posts, channels and pages.
- Use the Workspace selector at the bottom of the sidebar to switch between Workspaces, Projects and the channels in focus.
- Open Settings from your account menu in the top right. Settings opens over the page you are on.
What affects availability
Not every action is available for every channel. What you can do depends on:
- The platform. Some tools, such as Optimize, work only with YouTube videos.
- Your role. Workspace and Project roles decide whether you can edit, publish, view Analytics or reply to comments.
- Your plan and Tokens. Your plan includes certain benefits. Some AI actions use Tokens, and the price is shown on the action before you start.
