The problem it solves

You want to stay active on Mastodon and keep your profile posting regularly, but you don't have time to manually check another account and repost its content every day. Consistent posting slips when you're busy running the rest of your business.

Who it fits

Small businesses or creators who manage a Mastodon presence and want to reshare content from a trusted source without doing it by hand.

How it works

  1. Runs on a regular schedule throughout the day
  2. Checks a chosen account for posts made that day
  3. Filters out anything already posted or outdated
  4. Reshares the new posts to your Mastodon profile automatically
What you get

A Mastodon feed that stays active without daily posting

Fresh posts from an account you trust get reshared to your Mastodon profile automatically every day, keeping your feed active without manual work.

What you get

A Mastodon profile that stays active with fresh reshared content, with no manual posting required.

What you need

A Mastodon account with developer access enabled.

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.
