Does Socialhand really make the content, or just schedule it?
It makes it. Socialhand writes the captions, designs carousels, photo posts and motion graphics, scripts and builds reels, generates AI video, and turns the takes you upload into finished reels. Then it posts and replies. You approve, or switch on autopilot.
Can't I just use ChatGPT or Claude for this?
AI chat is great at writing a caption. Running your socials is the rest of the job: reading your website and the posts you already have, designing the visuals, cutting the reels, remembering your brand week after week, posting at the right time on all 8 platforms and replying to comments. A chat window can't open your Instagram or post for you. Socialhand does all of it, and you approve every post before it goes out.
Which platforms does it post to?
All 8 on every plan: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Threads and Pinterest. Each one gets its own version of the post, made for how that platform works.
Where does it reply to comments and DMs?
Comment replies work on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and Threads. DM replies work on Instagram and Facebook Messenger. Those are the platforms that let apps reply for you today; we add more as they open up.
How do my own takes become reels?
Upload your takes from your phone or computer. Socialhand turns them into a finished, captioned reel and posts it to all 8 platforms, including Reels, TikTok and Shorts. Want it shorter or a different hook? Just ask in the chat. Got a long recording, like a podcast or a talk? Upload it (up to 90 minutes) and Socialhand cuts its best moments into several reels, scheduled a day apart.
What are trial reels?
An Instagram feature that shows a reel to non-followers first. Socialhand uses it to test a few hooks, then shares the winner with your followers, so only your best ideas land in your feed.
Will it sound like me?
Socialhand learns your tone from your website and your past posts, and gets better with every edit you make. Nothing goes out in a voice you didn't approve.
What if it replies to something it shouldn't?
Complaints, refunds and anything sensitive are flagged to you instead of answered. You can also keep every reply on approve-first.
How does AI video work? Do I need my own API key?
No. Socialhand generates your posts, carousels and motion graphics and turns the footage you upload into reels, all included. Fully AI-generated video comes with every plan, with AI video clips included each month, and you can add more anytime. If you already pay for an AI video tool, connect your own key instead and generation skips credits entirely.
Can I see what it's bringing in?
Yes. The Results page shows your views, engagement and followers on each platform, clicks to your website, replies sent and leads, for the last 7, 30 or 90 days against the period before, plus your top posts and weekly reports. Clicks are counted by turning the links in your posts and DMs into short links (you can switch that off); Instagram and TikTok captions keep their links as written, since they can't be tapped there. Leads come from "Comment LINK" DM funnels on Pro, and you can export them. Tell it what a new customer is worth and it estimates what your leads are worth and how many hours it saved you, next to what your plan costs. Stats arrive about a day after each post goes out.
How does the free try work?
Sign up free and paste your website. Socialhand works out your offer and generates a reel, a carousel, image posts and text posts for all 8 platforms, then posts one to each account you connect, so you see it live. You can also film one reel in Studio for free. No card needed. If you like it, pick a plan and Socialhand posts every day.
Do I need any design or editing skills?
No. If you can send a message, you can use Socialhand. It does the writing, the design, the reels and the posting.
