The comment section is a search result

When someone clicks into your post, the top comments are the second thing they read. Treat them like ad copy: on-brand, useful, and never phoned in.

The guidebook lays out how to seed the first three comments on every post so the tone is set before the algorithm hands you a stranger.

The daily 15

Every weekday, one person on the team runs a 15-minute pass:

  • Reply to every comment from the last 24h (with a real reply, not an emoji)
  • Flag any comment that reads like a buying signal and hand it to DMs
  • Leave 5 genuine comments on adjacent creator accounts
  • Save any comment that could become a post next week

Response library preview

Twelve situations show up over and over: pricing questions, comparison questions, complaints, jokes, hot takes, spam. The guidebook gives you an on-brand starting point for each so no one on the team is writing from scratch at 9pm.

Doesn't scripted replying feel fake?+

The library is a starting point, not a script. It saves the 'what do I even say' beat so the human tone comes through faster.

Do you cover paid ad comments too?+

Yes — there's a specific section on triaging comments on active ads, including which ones you should hide and which you should absolutely leave up.
