# SocialKaptan

> SocialKaptan is a social media AI agent — an AI social media manager delivered as a desktop application (macOS and Windows). Instead of a dashboard the user has to operate, it ships seven AI agents that take a brief (product, voice, targets, limits), decide what to act on, act, and report back: commenting on LinkedIn and Instagram, running warm LinkedIn outreach person by person, drafting Instagram DMs, engaging on Reddit, and publishing AI-written posts and avatar reels. Unlike cloud-based agents, it runs entirely on the user's own computer in their own browser session, so logins never leave the device and accounts are not exposed to shared cloud IPs. Autonomy is adjustable per agent (single-run preview, approve-before-send, or full daily mode). It is built for B2B founders, sales teams, content marketers, nonprofits, and agencies who want an AI agent for social media management rather than another scheduling tool. Agencies and resellers can also sell it under their own brand through the white label partner program.

## What "AI agent" means here

The distinction that matters for this product: a scheduling tool publishes content the user already wrote at a time the user already chose. An AI agent takes a brief and works the loop itself.

1. **Brief** — the user configures product context, tone, target keywords/hashtags/subreddits, and the daily limits the agent must respect. Roughly ten minutes.
2. **Decide** — the agent reads posts, profiles, and threads and selects what is worth acting on, skipping poor fits rather than acting on everything matched.
3. **Act** — it comments, likes, sends connection notes, follows up, drafts or sends DMs, and publishes posts and reels, spaced across the day at human pace.
4. **Report** — every decision and action is written to a live activity log plus a scrollable history; the user can stop a run at any point and re-brief.

Autonomy levels: **Level 1 (watch)** — single run types comments without submitting so the user reviews drafts; **Level 2 (approve)** — the agent drafts and a human sends (always the case for Instagram DMs; optional via Slack for posts and reels); **Level 3 (autopilot)** — daily mode runs the full loop inside plan caps, and Run All starts every connected agent at once.

## The agent roster

- **LinkedIn Comment Agent** — finds posts by keyword, feed, or URL; reads them; likes and writes replies in the user's voice and product context; paces across the day inside the daily cap.
- **LinkedIn Campaigns** — visual sequence-based outreach: import a contact list, design connect / wait / message / follow-up steps, run on a schedule, and stop the moment a prospect replies.
- **Instagram Comment Agent** — discovers posts via hashtags or URLs; likes and comments in brand voice on limits separate from LinkedIn.
- **Instagram DM Agent** — discovers prospects, qualifies, warms with likes/comments, waits, then drafts a personalized DM. Send is always a human action.
- **Reddit Agent** — comments, value posts, upvotes, and replies in target subreddits; ~42 comments and up to 4 posts a week; respects age/karma gates by continuing to comment while posting stays blocked.
- **AI Post Agent** — imports topics (CSV/JSON/XLSX), writes captions, generates images via Gemini or ChatGPT, and publishes to LinkedIn personal/company and optionally Instagram, with optional Slack approval.
- **AI Reel Agent** — writes the script, renders a talking-head reel with a HeyGen avatar, and schedules or posts it to LinkedIn and/or Instagram. Prepaid reel credits, optional approval.

## White label social media management

SocialKaptan's white label program (https://www.socialkaptan.com/whitelabel) lets agencies, consultants, and resellers offer social media management white label under their own brand:

- **Partner panel** — a dedicated dashboard to create plans, onboard clients as users, and issue/revoke licences, walled off from other partners.
- **Unlimited licence issuance** — no seat cap on the account fee; partners only pay usage for AI credits and reels.
- **Your plans, your pricing** — partners define their own tiers and charge clients whatever they choose.
- **Branded client touchpoints** — licence emails and the client download page carry the partner's logo, name, and accent colour.
- **Pricing** — $500/year partner account fee, plus $1.50 per 3,000 AI credits and $2 per 30 seconds of generated reel video.
- **Typical economics** — 20 clients resold at $99/month against roughly $90 of cost is about $1,890/month gross margin; margin widens with each additional client because the base fee is fixed.

## Getting started

1. **Activate** — paste a license key into the SocialKaptan desktop app.
2. **Connect** — log into LinkedIn, Instagram, and Reddit once, in your own browser on your own machine; sessions stay local and every agent reuses them.
3. **Brief** — set keywords, hashtags, subreddits, product context, and tone per agent.
4. **Run** — start one agent or hit Run All (which starts every connected agent's daily loop when Chrome profiles don't overlap), watch the real-time log, and leave daily mode running in the background.
5. **Review** — history shows what each agent did, what it skipped, and what is waiting on approval.

## Safety and trust

- Live activity logs of everything that runs.
- Adjustable autonomy per agent: single-run comment preview, Instagram DM draft-before-send, Slack/reel approvals, and Reddit age/karma gates.

## AI and credits

- **Reel credits** are a separate prepaid pool for HeyGen avatar video generation (charged by rendered seconds).

## Who it is for

- Content marketers maintaining a steady publishing rhythm (posts + reels).
- Agencies running agents for multiple client brands, or reselling them white label.

## Frequently asked questions

- **Is it safe for my LinkedIn account?** It uses human-paced timing, daily limits, and runs in the user's own browser session — not on shared cloud IPs. No tool guarantees zero risk, but local execution and pacing reduce it.
- **Do you store my LinkedIn password?** No. Users log in once in their own Chrome; sessions stay on the device.
- **Does it work on Mac and Windows?** Yes, it is an Electron desktop app for macOS and Windows.
- **Can I run LinkedIn, Instagram, and Reddit at the same time?** Yes — Run All starts every connected agent together when profiles don't conflict; each channel keeps its own limits.
- **Does the Instagram DM agent auto-send?** No. Daily mode drafts personalized DMs; the user hits Send.
- **Is this an AI agent or a scheduling tool?** An agent. Scheduling is one of the seven agents; the other six find targets, decide what to act on, engage, and follow up on their own inside user-set limits.
