How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

You want your team to see relevant social media mentions without everyone individually checking Twitter throughout the day. Manually monitoring a hashtag or search term is easy to forget and easy to miss things on.

Who it fits

Teams who want to monitor a brand mention or keyword on social media inside their group chat.

How it works

  1. The system checks for new tweets matching your search term every minute
  2. It filters out tweets that were already posted
  3. New tweets are formatted for posting
  4. They are sent to your Mattermost channel
What you get

Keyword mentions caught right after they post

Every new tweet matching your search term shows up in your team's Mattermost channel automatically.

What you get

A steady stream of new, relevant tweets posted in your Mattermost channel.

What you need

A Twitter developer account and a Mattermost workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
