Find posts and comments about your brand, your rivals and your topic on many social sites. Get them in one table every day. Spot problems, ideas and trends early.

## The task

People talk about products in many places: Bluesky posts, Hacker News threads, YouTube comments, newsletters. Brands that listen find ideas and problems early. Brands that do not, find them late.

Social listening suites are expensive. Our tools give you the raw posts and comments for a small price per result, so you can listen to the places that matter to you.

| By hand | With our Actors |
|---|---|
| Search each site by hand | Mentions from many sites in one feed |
| Miss a viral complaint | New posts every morning |
| No data for content ideas | Real questions to answer in your content |
| Pay a lot for a listening suite | Pay for the posts you collect |

2. **Search the sites**: Bluesky, Hacker News, YouTube and more
3. **Collect posts**: Text, author, date, likes and link
