+# POST-IT!
+
+## Overview
+
+The **Cross-Platform Post Embedder Bot** is a Discord bot designed to unify and simplify the process of sharing media from multiple platforms such as Reddit, Twitter, Tumblr, Mastodon, and more
+
+## Planned Platforms
+
+- Reddit
+- X (f.k.a. Twitter)
+- Tumblr
+- Mastodon
+- Other social media platforms to be added in future releases
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Post Link Submission:** Users provide a link to a post from a supported platform.
+2. **Embed Generation:** The bot fetches the content of the post (e.g. images, text) and generates a standardized Discord embed.
+3. **Customization:** Depending on user or server settings, the format of the embed can vary, allowing for a personalized experience.
