Common questions

Can I monitor specific Instagram accounts?

Direct Instagram scraping is not currently supported by our source pipeline. The workaround: add the same creators on Threads, YouTube, or any blog they cross-post to, plus the subreddits where their content is discussed. The signal carries.

How do I turn a brief into a carousel?

Briefs come with structured editorial angles, key points to cover, and a target word count. The "what to cover" list maps cleanly onto carousel slides.

Does this help with Reels specifically?

Yes. Briefs with a "trending" signal type are best for Reels. The originality score tells you whether you can put a fresh spin on something already viral.
