Monitor competitors' accounts every day
To follow competitors without opening each app, give the tool their profile links and run it once: what each posted lately, and which posts did clearly better than that account's usual. Then press “Watch these accounts every day”, or say it to your AI. Up to 20 accounts a run, on mixed platforms, from 9 credits an account. It uses no account of yours.
Every Monday, tell me what these 3 competitors posted last week. Only the posts that did better than usual: <links>.
First, run it once
On Account snapshot, paste the profile links and run it. It is priced before it runs.
A real run on the live service, recorded 2026-10-18:
What did NASA post on X this week, and which posts took off?
20 posts in the window; the account's usual is 1,436 interactions a post. What stands out:

Then say one sentence to your AI
Once SocialToAI is connected, say what to watch. Your AI first shows what will run, when, about what a run costs and at most what a month costs, and where new items go. It charges nothing for that, and makes the watch only after you agree.
Every Monday, tell me what these 3 competitors posted last week. Only the posts that did better than usual: <links>.It works without an AI too: run the tool or the call on the website, then press the daily button. Everything else about a watch is in Schedules.
At most what it costs
Priced per account, on its own platform, at the tool's usual depth (about 20 posts an account).
| What you watch | A run | A month, daily | A month, weekly | A daily month at the first pack | The free credits cover |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| One RedNote account | 30 | 930 | 150 | about $3.10 | 3 runs |
| One Douyin account | 10 | 310 | 50 | about $1.03 | 10 runs |
| One Weibo account | 10 | 310 | 50 | about $1.03 | 10 runs |
| One WeChat Articles account | 42 | 1,302 | 210 | about $4.34 | 2 runs |
| One Bilibili account | 10 | 310 | 50 | about $1.03 | 10 runs |

Where new items go
Pick one or several when you make the watch. What it can send is the same on every platform.
| Where | How to set it | What arrives |
|---|---|---|
On by default for a watch made in your AI or in the console. With a key, send email_new_items: true. | How many are new, with their links. | |
| Feishu / Lark | Add a custom bot to the group and give its address to your AI or to push_url. We post a test message first. | The count, the first 5 links, what the run cost, a link to the console. No post text. |
| WeCom | The same, with a group bot's address. | The same. |
| Slack | The same, with an Incoming Webhooks address. | The same. |
| RSS or JSON Feed | Every watch has one private address, on the Tasks page. Reading it is free. | Links and dates. For 24 hours after a run also the title and the start of the text. Anyone with the address can read it. |
| Webhook | Add an endpoint in the console's settings. See Webhooks. | schedule_run.finished after each run, and schedule.alert when its main number moves. Signed. |
| Your AI, when you ask | Ask “what's new?”. Nothing to set. | What your watches found and you have not seen, for free. |
What to know first
- The first run is only the starting point. It notes what is there and sends nothing new, and it is charged like any run. New items start with the second run.
- Daily or weekly, not real time. It runs at the time you choose, in your time zone.
- A run with nothing new still costs a run: it read the page. A failed run costs nothing.
- It stays under its limits. One run may cost at most what you set. The month's most is that limit times 31 for a daily watch and 5 for a weekly one; a run past either is skipped, free.
- One free, then 20. A free account holds 1 watch, run from its free credits. When they no longer cover a run it pauses, charges nothing and emails you; any purchase starts it again. An account that has bought credits holds 20.
- “Better than usual” is against that account's own recent posts, not against other accounts, so a small account can stand out too.
