The problem it solves

You post consistently but have no easy way to see which topics actually land with your audience. Manually checking and logging engagement numbers for every post is tedious and easy to skip.

Who it fits

Social media managers, agencies, or creators who track BlueSky content performance.

How it works

  1. Runs on a daily schedule
  2. Pulls recent posts marked as published from your spreadsheet
  3. Checks BlueSky for updated like, repost, and reply counts
  4. Updates those columns in your spreadsheet automatically
What you get

Performance numbers ready without checking each post

Your BlueSky post likes, reposts, and replies get pulled into your spreadsheet automatically every day.

What you get

An up-to-date spreadsheet showing engagement metrics for every recent post.

What you need

A BlueSky account and a Google account.

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.
