Straight answers

What you should know before you try it.

How the workflow works, what stays under your control, what it costs, and where the limits are.

Start with the question behind most of the others.

Synfluencer does not publish behind your back. It prepares the work, keeps your voice and source context attached, and follows the review or automatic-approval policy you explicitly saved.

What is a Synfluencer?

A Synfluencer is the voice and identity behind a content workflow. It can sound like you, carry a brand voice, or represent a synthetic persona you create. Once it is set up, Synfluencer can find trends, draft posts and replies, make images and video, and prepare work for your approval and schedule.

What social platforms does it publish to?

Synfluencer supports X, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Bluesky, Threads, Facebook, Pinterest, Reddit, Google Business, and blogs. You can connect more than one account and manage the work from a single queue.

How much does it cost?

Synfluencer is pay-as-you-go. No subscription, no monthly fee. Credits come in packs of $10, $25, $50, and $100 at a 1:1 dollar ratio. Text actions like trend research and drafting usually cost a few cents. Video varies by model, duration, resolution, and audio; Synfluencer shows your final customer estimate and maximum before paid work begins, then reconciles completed usage to your final charge. You can set a hard monthly cap and a burn alert so spending never surprises you. See the Pricing page for details. New accounts start with free credits.

Do I still review content before it goes live?

You control that policy. Review every content piece keeps every draft waiting for you. Quality-gated automatic approval continues only when a new automation draft meets your saved score (80/100 by default), and Always approve and continue is a separate explicit choice. Lower-scoring quality-gated drafts show the exact reason and can be approved, edited, or rejected before Scheduling continues. Approval alone never publishes a post.

Can I choose what gets created before credits are used?

Yes. Creating one draft or several drafts from Discover or RSS first opens a review step. Choose the intent, confirm the draft destinations, and optionally add a Blog article, Newsletter, platform-specific Hashtags, Video script, or Source link. Source link is off by default, adds the primary source URL only to supported posts when selected, and never adds it to X. Connected destinations are selected initially; unconnected destinations remain available as Draft only. Nothing starts—and no generation credits are used—until you confirm.

Is this for running fake accounts?

No. Every piece of content passes the approval policy you explicitly saved before publishing, and the product is built around that gate. People use Synfluencer to run their own accounts, their clients’ accounts, brand profiles, and openly synthetic personas like our own @simbasyn. What it’s not built for is pretending a machine is a person. We disclose, and we recommend you do too.

How does trend discovery work?

Discover offers two methods. Across sources compares current evidence from 15 social, community, and web sources. TikTok outliers finds recent videos performing at least twice as well as the median of that creator’s preceding posts, using at least five earlier posts as the baseline. Enter one topic or separate topics with commas; Synfluencer searches each topic independently, then merges and deduplicates the results into one saved discovery. A blank search does the same for each saved interest and uses the profile niche only when no interests exist. The niche, audience, strategy, and voice shape the content direction after retrieval rather than becoming hidden search terms. TikTok outliers defaults to a 14-day window, with explained 7- and 30-day options, and keeps the evidence attached when you move an idea into drafts.

Can I manage multiple synfluencers?

Yes. A workspace can hold several Synfluencers, and each one keeps its own niche, voice, avatar, connected accounts, content queue, automations, analytics, and monthly AI budget. Owners can invite teammates and control which Synfluencers and client work they can access.

Can teammates or clients share the approval workflow?

Yes. Create a workspace, invite teammates as an owner, editor, reviewer, or viewer, and assign specific drafts for review. Clients can approve or request changes through an expiring guest link that exposes only the linked content—not your queue, performance data, integrations, or account.

Can I export analytics or client reports?

Yes. Owners and editors can create a frozen performance snapshot for a workspace, Synfluencer, or client, download the same numbers as CSV or PDF, and share a revocable client-facing report link. Owners can also create usage statements that separate spend by feature, Synfluencer, client, and team member.

Can it match my brand voice?

Yes. During onboarding, you set the niche, style, tone, posting rhythm, and guardrails. Voice Library can then hold an unlimited corpus of approved posts, email, documents, transcripts, and recordings, with search, filters, and page controls for large libraries. Authorship, permission, and speaker or passage selection prevent third-party words from silently becoming the profile voice.

Can I create a post from a PDF, recording, transcript, or video link?

Yes. Create → From Source accepts pasted text, public webpages, X posts, YouTube links, PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, audio, and video. Select the ready sources, any supported draft destinations, an intent, and optional Blog, Newsletter, platform-specific Hashtags, Video script, or Source link additions. All five additions start off; Source link adds the primary source URL only to supported posts and never to X. Humorous is available when that is the right voice for the idea. The result keeps its sources attached and waits in Review.

How private is audio transcription?

Audio and video transcription is restricted to a configured OpenRouter allowlist with zero data retention required. Uploads are streamed, size-limited, and signature-checked. Synfluencer records the actual model, provider route, request identifier, and cost for workspace usage reporting without putting the transcript body into the customer audit trail.

How does video generation work?

Create → Video offers independent UGC Studio and Clip Studio systems plus three direct tools—Talking video, Generate motion, and Adapt video. Talking video starts with Portrait 9:16 (default) or Landscape 16:9, then creates one Avatar IV, LC Avatar, MX Avatar, or Aurora Avatar output from a matching reference. The cards identify their makers as Heygen, LongCat, Mirage, and Creatify; Synfluencer keeps the actual OpenRouter or Fal gateway in the usage record. UGC photo generation offers both shapes so you can create a matching reference. MX can animate a photo or retain the person and performance in a matching reference video while replacing only its audio; it does not replace the video performer with the Synfluencer photo. Only Avatar IV exposes motion and expressiveness controls. Every profile explicitly saves one primary speaking voice: a provider-bound catalog voice from ElevenLabs, Gemini, or xAI, or its authorized Fish Audio clone. Manual Talking video and UGC Studio create narration with that saved choice, then pause for playback, script edits, regeneration, and explicit approval. If no voice is saved, Synfluencer asks for one before any provider call. Every video action stays disabled until that exact track is approved. Confirmed narration is saved in Assets → Audio with playback, script, voice attribution, and its final customer charge. Synfluencer shows the final customer maximum before paid work, tracks each step, stores finished media in Assets, and keeps model and final-charge attribution. Model input limits vary, and upscaled 4K is labeled rather than presented as native.

Can Synfluencer create a properly formatted blog article?

Yes. Blog is an optional version rather than an automatic extra. Blog drafts use a rich article editor with headings, bold and italic text, lists, blockquotes, links, inline images and video, and separate featured media. You can copy the article with its formatting intact for a document or publishing system, or keep editing it inside Review.

Can Synfluencer create a newsletter?

Yes. Choose Newsletter before generating—or add it later from Regenerate in Review. It has its own subject line, preview text, rich email body, and CTA-ready structure. Newsletter and Blog are both optional, and you can request either one or both.

Can I draft for a platform before connecting the account?

Yes. Every supported platform can be selected as a draft destination. Synfluencer will generate the platform-specific version and preview, label it Draft only, and let you edit, save, add media, and approve it. You must connect that platform before it can be scheduled or published.

Can I attach media to a specific post in a thread?

Yes. Threaded X, Bluesky, and Threads drafts show separate media controls for every message and can keep multiple attachments across the thread. Exact X placement currently supports photos, Threads supports photos and videos, and the current Bluesky publishing provider supports media on the first message only. Synfluencer verifies the reviewed message boundaries before scheduling or publishing and blocks with an explanation rather than moving an attachment. Media-bearing X threads must also be link-free because the provider strips clickable URLs before publishing.

Does the public demo make real changes?

No. The demo uses a scrubbed, synced Simba workspace for realistic read-only context and simulates actions in the current browser tab. Drafting, generation, publishing, invitations, links, exports, billing, and account controls return realistic disposable results without calling live providers or changing the shared demo data. Reloading, signing out, closing the tab, or signing in to a real account clears those simulated changes.

Can I automate the full workflow?

Yes. Create workflow is always available and opens one composer where you add and configure two to six automations under one schedule; you do not need to build them separately first, though reusing an existing automation is optional. The workflow and new automations save together, and saving alone does not run providers or spend credits. You can also keep any automation individual. While a workflow runs, the active automation shows Working with a spinner, earlier work stays Completed, and later work says Waiting without page reload flashes. Trend → Content offers quality-gated automatic approval, always approve and continue, or review every item. A waiting approval groups platform rows by content and can be reviewed individually or approved as a confirmed batch; approval wakes the same workflow automatically. Resume from [automation] retries the named stage in that same run with the latest saved settings and never repeats completed stages or active provider work; Enable schedule and Pause schedule only control future saved times. Continue from failure remains a separate recovery path that preserves the failed attempt. Expanded history opens the newest run and shows one dated attempt at a time. Select an exact run, then use Rerun from this automation on any completed stage to create an isolated comparison from that point; choosing the first stage reruns the full historical pipeline. Existing work stays current and Publishing is not submitted until you explicitly Keep updated version. Disregard changes leaves the old version current and keeps generated media reusable in Assets. Unused eligible trends remain available for later content runs. Preview is read-only, skipped runs offer direct recovery, and expanded history shows titles, relevance, platform, status, and reasons. Automation AI work is labeled in usage and included in the same monthly and projected spend totals as interactive generation, even when a later automation fails. Paid media uses the saved safety maximum as a hard stop unless you explicitly allow a bounded estimate above it when existing credits cover the work; insufficient credits always stop generation. Publishing still requires approved content, required media, and a connected destination. Talking-video automations can optionally auto-approve their generated narration; manual Video creation still asks you to listen and approve it.

How does Synfluencer choose recommended publishing times?

It scores your post history in the Synfluencer audience timezone. Reliable weekday-and-hour history comes first; when that exact cell is sparse, it can use a reliable pattern for the same local hour across other days. If there is still not enough history, platform guidance is interpreted directly as an audience-local clock time, not as UTC. You can optionally save preferred publishing hours on the Brand profile or use a custom window for a Scheduling automation. Manual times are always allowed outside that window. If no recommendation fits the selected horizon, spacing, and daily cap, Bulk Schedule leaves the row unmatched for you to edit or remove instead of assigning a random overnight time.

How do I track competitors?

The Watchlist tracks competitor accounts and specific topics. It can sync account activity, flag unusual movement, find gaps, and show what changed since the last topic scan.

What happens during the QC Audit step?

QC reviews each piece before it reaches your approval queue. It checks for voice drift, unsupported claims, stiff copy, and platform formatting problems. If something is flagged, you get a note explaining what to check.

What AI models power the agents?

Synfluencer uses different models for writing, images, and video, and chooses one based on the job. You do not need to supply your own API keys.

Is my content used to train AI models?

No. Your content, drafts, voice profiles, and social account data are not used to train AI models. When a request needs a third-party model, Synfluencer sends only what is needed to complete that request.

How do I get started?

Create an account, set up the voice or persona you want to run, connect your social accounts, and start with discovery or a draft. You can model it on yourself or create a synthetic persona. The Guide walks through each part of the product.

What happens if I cancel?

There's no subscription to cancel. Stop using Synfluencer and you stop spending. Unused credits stay in your account without expiring. Refunds are handled under the Terms of Service and applicable law.
