FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Shortlist Viral Visual Posts:

What counts as a viral Instagram post here?

The starting bar is at least twice an account's median likes plus comments and 25 total reactions. You can change that threshold.

Which profiles and subjects can I choose?

You choose public creator and competitor profiles, audience topics, and subjects to exclude. You also set the Monday time and time zone.

What happens when a post has missing evidence?

Your weekly entry names profiles with too little history and posts with hidden likes or inaccessible visuals. Missing comments are noted without guessing why people reacted.

What if the content research table cannot be updated?

Your content strategist receives the unsaved shortlist and the write failure for manual follow-up.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
