Social media managers, I desperately need your help!

Hey everyone!

I would like to have some guidance regarding agency workflows. For content, my technical co-founder and I are building a social media scheduler tool (well it's much more than that!) and we would like to have your input.

As you can imagine, being the non-technical founder, I have a lot more free time to think and overthink about features and marketing. I don't want this post to be too long but I had a couple of questions that would help us make this tool A1, that I was hoping you could answer. We are primarily targeting small to mid-sized agencies.

The reason why I say that it's more than a scheduler is because it replaces Slack (internal and client chat), allows for peer enforced approvals and client approvals and has an AI tool that saves massive time by interviewing your client during onboarding and scraping the internet to find engaging videos in your client's niche and write content in your client's brand voice. Oh and "per person" pricing!

So here are a couple of questions I would have

  1. Would you ever realistically switch out of your current scheduling tool : I know that you probably have a lot of client data in your current tool and it could be a hassle to switch out, but if you found a better tool (hopefully ours haha) would you even bother switching? If not, would a data importer tool change your mind?
  2. How much would you be willing to pay : keeping in mind that we don't have a per person pricing, does 200$ for our highest tier seem reasonable and something that you would page?
  3. What would you say, from my presentation of things, is the feature that intrigues you the most?

Thank you!

I launched my social media agency about 12 months ago. Like most of you, I started with the standard stack: Slack, Hootsuite, and a messy mix of Google Sheets for research.

About 6 months in, I hit a wall. Every time I added a new contractor or client to the dashboard, my bill spiked. I realized I was paying a "growth tax" just for letting my team talk to each other. On top of that, the AI features in most schedulers were just... bad. Generic ChatGPT fluff that didn't actually look at what was working for my clients' competitors.

I got tired of waiting for the "big guys" to fix their pricing, so my co-founder and I started building Kyte.

The goal is simple: No per-seat pricing (ever) and AI that actually scrapes competitor signals to write scripts that sound human.

We’re about 90 days from the beta, and I’m curious: What’s the one thing that would actually make you switch your current scheduler? Is it just the price? Better research? Or is the "switching cost" of moving all your clients too high to even bother?

I've set up a simple waitlist for people who want to help us break the beta in 3 months. No pressure at all, but if you're as fed up with the "seat tax" as I am, I'd love to have you in there! Don't want to be putting the link directly in the post but will reply with it!

Cheers !

Hey everyone,

I’m at a bit of a crossroads with my personal branding and wanted some outside perspective.

Long story short: I’m a law grad and I’ve decided to put Bar school on hold for at least a year. I’m currently building a SaaS (Kyte) with a CTO, and I want to document the process on Instagram/TikTok to build an audience.

The goal is to eventually drive traffic to the startup, but also just to build a personal brand that isn't tied to a "9-5" path.

I’m struggling with what my "angle" should be. I don't want to be another "hustle culture" creator, but I want the content to actually be useful. I'm torn between three directions:

  1. The "High-Stakes Pivot": Focusing on the psychological side of choosing NOT to go to Bar school. The risk, the family pressure, and the reality of betting on entrepreneurship when everyone expects you to be a lawyer.
  2. The "Building in Public" Tech Side: Purely focusing on the SaaS. Showing the wireframes, the late nights with my CTO, the bugs, and the logic behind how we’re building the product.
  3. The "Systems & Focus" Side: Showing how I actually manage my life and time to stay productive enough to build a company from scratch. (The "Discipline" angle).

If you were following a founder in 2026, which of these would actually keep you engaged? Is the "Lawyer turned Founder" narrative still interesting, or should I just shut up and show the product?

I’m trying to avoid being the "fake it till you make it" guy. I’d rather show the mess.

What would you focus on if you were in my shoes?

My technical co-founder and I are about 3 months away from dropping the beta for Kyte. We’re building a social media command center that finally bundles the stuff agencies actually use (Research + Scheduling + Basic Invoicing) without the "per-seat" pricing that kills small teams.

I’m at a crossroads. Some people say: Launch a waitlist the second you have the idea. Others say they haven't seen any success with waitlists

I want a solid group of 50–100 beta testers who are actually agency owners or power-users. I don't just want random emails, I want people who care about the AI research loop (scraping competitor signals vs. generic ChatGPT advice). We would give a couple of months of free access to the software in exchange for valuable feedback.

My Question for the Founders/Marketers here: what would be the course of action you would take to premarket this - would you build a waitlist and comment on niche subreddits (if so how to not be too salesy)?

I'm honestly leaning towards just building in public and inviting people to a "Pre-Beta" list, but I’d love to hear some horror stories or success stories from anyone who has done a 3-month lead-up.

If you were an agency owner, would you even care about a waitlist for a tool this far out, or should I just wait until I have a demo video?

Is it just me or is the multi-tool sprawl for agencies getting out of hand? I’m currently paying for way too many seats on tools where I only use like 10% of the features.

I'm building a tool called Kyte with my technical co-founder. The main and best (if I do say so myself) is the research—scraping social media to find highly performing videos and turning them into scripts that don't sound like generic AI garbage, in your clients voice. But I’m also curious about the 'extra' stuff.

If you could ditch one $50/mo subscription because your main workflow tool handled the basics of it (billing, task mgmt, or chat), which one is the biggest 'overkill' for you right now?

What’s up everyone. I’ve been running a social media agency and the "SaaS tax" is finally getting to me.

It feels like every time I hire an intern or a freelancer, my software bill doubles. $20/user for scheduling, $15/user for tasks... it’s a joke.

My co-founder and I are building Kyte to fix this. We’re doing flat-rate, unlimited seats from day one. But the "killer feature" we’re actually stoked about is the research side. Instead of generic "AI ideas," we built a pipeline that scrapes actual competitor signals/hooks and pipes them through a RAG setup to write scripts in a specific client's voice.

We’re looking for a handful of agency owners or solo creators who want to jump into the beta and help us break this thing.

Not asking for money, just looking for people who are tired of 5-tab workflows and want to help us refine the AI output.

Drop a comment or DM if you want to be on the list. I think we will be ready for beta users in around a month or two (thought I'd start soon haha!)
