Nothing is ever posted for you. X does not allow automated replies, so every reply is a draft you read, copy and post yourself. Every reply is fact checked in code: a number, a quote or a build time that is not in the post (or measured on your own run) is refused and never shown as written.

PART 04
Read the queue
The kindA find to rebuild (a site or tool someone found), a pain point, a strategy we automate, a question, or a news peg. Spam, ads and posts a stranger should not reply to are skipped.
The scoreHow well a useful reply fits (from the AI, 1 to 10), counted most, then freshness from the post time and reach from its likes, views and the author's followers, both worked out in code.
The matchThe Aha worker or playbook that answers the post, the topic to build it for, and one line on why. For example a roofing calculator site goes to Calculator Sites with "roofing".
The value replyPure value: a practical tip, the next step or a sharp question, in your persona. No link, no product. Copy it.
The proof replyA short reply saying you built one with Aha Studio, with the link to it. Only 5 proof replies a day, given to the best matched posts, so most of your replies stay pure value.
The fact checkA number, a quote, a result or a build time that is not in the post is refused. A refused reply is rewritten once; if it breaks the rules again it is listed under The fact check and not shown.
PART 05
Build it first, then the proof reply
0 of 4 done- Press Build it firstIt opens the matched worker in a new tab with the topic filled in (and started, where the worker starts from one field).
- Publish what it builtPut it live on Netlify, WordPress or your own hosting, as you would any run.
- Press AttachPaste the live address, or pick the run from your recent runs of that worker. SocialWatchr wraps it in a managed link (Links) so you see the clicks each reply brings.
- The proof reply is redraftedWith the tracked link, and the build time only when the run you picked measured it (for example "in 7 minutes"). A pasted address has no measured time, so the reply never claims one.
PART 06
Work through the queue
CopyCopies the reply, with the tracked link in place of the placeholder.
Open postOpens the post on X, where you paste the reply and post it yourself.
Mark doneOnce you have posted it. Skip for a post you will not answer.
ResultsReplies marked done (last 30 days and this week), the clicks on each reply's tracked link, and the watches that found the posts you replied to.
PART 07
The free demo
Paste one X post (its words, and a link if it has one). The AI says what kind of post it is and which Aha worker answers it, then writes a value reply and a proof reply with a placeholder where your link goes, with Build it first to open that worker.
One post a day from one connection, with a daily limit for everyone. Nobody is charged. Signed-in members never use the demo: they run their inbox.
