Questions
What is social listening AI?
Social listening is watching public conversations for mentions of your product, your competitors or the problem you solve, so you can answer people when they ask.
Does it replace a paid listening tool?
For searching and summarizing public Reddit, X, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook content on demand, it covers the common job. It does not keep a standing alert running on its own.
Can it post replies for me?
It drafts them. You post them. Publishing to X, LinkedIn and others is a separate tool with your own key.
What does it cost?
Lodestone is free.
