Adding sentiment analysis to the AI comments would be a nice touch, so it can avoid sounding too salesy or off-key depending on the original post's tone. Would help the engagement feel more genuine and reduce the chance of awkward replies.

Ran it locally for a few days and liked that my own machine handled the comments instead of pinging some random server. The LinkedIn comment suggestions actually read like something I might type, which surprised me more than it should have.

ran it for a couple days on desktop and the ai comments actually feel contextually relevant, not the usual generic “great post” spam. scheduling linkedin posts side by side with instagram has saved me a lot of tab hopping.

Would love a built-in lead scoring layer that flags commenters who match your ICP, so the AI can prioritize replies to high-fit accounts instead of treating every interaction equally.

Running it locally on my desktop is a nice touch, feels way safer than handing over my login to some cloud tool. The AI comments actually read pretty natural, not the usual spammy stuff I've seen elsewhere.

Runs locally which is a nice plus, comments actually sound like a real person rather than the usual AI fluff. Surprised how well it picks up on context.

Love that it runs locally on desktop instead of pushing everything through a browser tab, smart call for anyone nervous about account safety. The scheduled post + AI comment combo looks tight too.

Love that this runs locally instead of being yet another cloud service farming engagement data. That's a real differentiator for anyone worried about LinkedIn flagging their account or getting burned by API changes.

👋 Hey Product Hunt! I'm Ritik, the founder of SocialKaptan.

Like many founders, I spent hours every week trying to stay active on LinkedIn and Instagram—writing posts, replying to comments, finding people to connect with, and keeping conversations alive. The problem wasn't creating content. It was finding the time to consistently engage.

So we built SocialKaptan.

SocialKaptan is an AI-powered social growth platform that helps you create content, engage with the right people, automate repetitive networking tasks, and grow your presence without spending your entire day on social media.

Our goal wasn't to replace authentic interactions. It was to eliminate repetitive work so you can focus on meaningful conversations and building relationships.

We're just getting started, and your feedback will directly shape what we build next.

A few questions for you:

-> What's the hardest part about growing on LinkedIn or Instagram?
-> Which repetitive social media task would you automate first?
-> What feature would make a tool like this indispensable for you?

Thanks for checking us out—we'll be here all day to answer every question and would love to hear your thoughts! 🚀
