The automation is tailored to help marketers, creatives, and operations teams bring campaigns to market quickly.
How to Access ClickUp AI Agents for Creatives
AI creative task automation is available through the AI agents in your workspace. To get started, follow these steps:
-
Open your workspace home and navigate to the AI section or panel.
-
Choose the creative or marketing-focused AI agent template that matches your workflow (for example, content, campaigns, or design projects).
-
Connect any required spaces, folders, or lists that contain your campaigns and deliverables.
-
Confirm permissions so the AI can read relevant tasks, custom fields, and docs.
Once connected, the AI agents can start generating suggestions, drafts, and updates inside your existing workflows.
Setting Up ClickUp for Creative Workflows
Before you rely on AI agents, configure your workspace structure so the automation has clear data to work from.
Create Spaces and Lists for Creative Projects
Organize your work into spaces, folders, and lists that reflect your creative pipeline.
- Use a Marketing or Creative space for campaigns.
- Create lists for blogs, ads, social content, video, or design requests.
- Add custom fields for status, channel, audience, and priority.
This structure lets the AI understand what kind of assets you produce and where each one is in the process.
Standardize Templates and Views
Build templates for your most common creative tasks and documents so automation stays on-brand and consistent.
- Task templates for content briefs, ad sets, or creative requests
- Doc templates for campaign strategies and copy decks
- Views that group tasks by owner, channel, or due date
Standardization gives AI agents repeatable patterns they can support and enhance.
Using ClickUp AI to Generate Creative Briefs
AI agents can turn your ideas and goals into actionable creative briefs in a few steps.
Step 1: Capture Campaign Inputs
Start by entering core campaign details into a task or doc:
- Objective and key results
- Primary audience segments
- Main message or offer
- Channels you plan to use
- Timeline and budget constraints
These inputs guide the AI when building your brief.
Step 2: Ask the AI Agent to Draft the Brief
Within the task or doc, trigger the relevant AI agent and prompt it to generate a brief. For example, ask it to:
- Summarize goals and audience
- Outline deliverables and formats
- Propose angles, hooks, and themes
- List success metrics and approvals
The agent will use your existing fields and notes to create a structured, reusable brief.
Step 3: Refine and Approve
Review the generated brief and adjust language, priorities, and deliverables. Then:
- Convert the brief into a task template
- Duplicate it for related deliverables
- Assign owners and due dates
This gives your team a clear starting point while saving time on manual drafting.
Automating Content Production with ClickUp AI
Once your briefs are ready, the automation can help you move from concept to complete content faster.
Drafting and Ideation with AI
From any copy or content task, you can use AI agents to:
- Generate first drafts based on the brief
- Brainstorm headlines, CTAs, and variations
- Adapt copy into different formats (scripts, social posts, email)
- Repurpose long-form content into snippets or highlight reels
Always review and edit drafts to make sure they match your brand voice and strategy.
Streamlining Reviews and Approvals
To prevent bottlenecks, use automation to manage feedback and sign-offs.
- Set up statuses for review, revision, and approved.
- Use automation to notify reviewers when content is ready.
- Let AI agents summarize feedback threads for faster decisions.
- Track blockers directly on the task using comments and checklists.
This turns your review cycle into a predictable, trackable workflow.
Optimizing Creative Performance with ClickUp AI
AI agents can help analyze what works in your creative assets so you can refine future campaigns.
Analyze Completed Campaigns
Once a campaign ends, gather performance data in your workspace and let the AI agent:
- Summarize what performed best by channel
- Highlight recurring themes in top-performing creatives
- Identify gaps in coverage or audience segments
- Suggest new tests for future iterations
These insights can be captured in retrospective docs or dashboards for reference.
Apply Insights to New Work
When preparing the next campaign, reference your summaries and:
- Ask the AI agent to prioritize proven angles and formats
- Use winning copy frameworks as prompts
- Experiment with variations based on prior successes
This continuous loop keeps your creative pipeline improving over time.
