The AI that runs your social media job, set it, and let it ride.
Describe what you want, once. Babs writes it, schedules it, publishes it across 29 connected apps, and assembles multi-step automations on its own — with your approval gating anything real-world before it ever goes out.
Connect accounts securely through OAuth — no shared passwords
Plan, publish, and keep every channel on-brand.
Give creators, social managers, and teams one clear workflow for content, media, scheduling, account connections, and publishing activity.
Multi-platform publishing
Connect X, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, LinkedIn, Slack, Notion, Pinterest, and 20+ other apps, then publish or act on every one from a single place.
AI-built automations
Describe the sequence you want — generate, post, wait, post again, branch on a condition — and Babs assembles the flow. Review and edit it visually before it ever runs.
Scheduled posts
Write once and schedule for later. Babs queues each post and publishes it automatically at the time you set.
Media library
Attach images and video to posts, store them securely, and reuse approved media across future campaigns.
Brand & personality profiles
Define tone, banned words, and hashtag policy so every post stays aligned with your brand voice.
Analytics that cover every channel
See publishing activity, reach and engagement for each connected platform in one dashboard, instead of opening a different analytics tab for every network.
YouTube Studio & AI thumbnails
Upload and manage videos, playlists and comments, and generate thumbnail options in trending styles, then polish the one you like.
Secure connections
Connect accounts through OAuth — not shared passwords — and disconnect any platform whenever you choose.
Create once. Publish everywhere you choose.
Connect your channels, prepare the post, and let Babs handle the publishing schedule.
Connect your accounts
Securely link the social platforms you manage.
Compose or schedule
Write your content, attach media, and choose each target channel.
Babs publishes it
Your post goes out to every selected platform, on time.
Describe it once. Babs builds the sequence.
Beyond one-off scheduling, Babs can assemble multi-step automations — generate content, post, wait, post again, branch on a condition, or call any connected app's own actions — from a single plain-English brief. Review it on a visual canvas, then let it run.
Not "AI-powered." Actually AI-operated.
Most social tools bolt a caption generator onto the same old scheduler. Babs is built the other way around — the AI is the one running the operation, and you're the one approving it. That's the whole point of "set it, and let it ride."
Connect social publishing to the tools around it.
Keep content planning, files, communication, and campaign work connected instead of scattered across separate tools.
Honest numbers, including where the other tool wins.
Every row links to a full side-by-side. Prices come from each vendor's own public pricing page (checked September 2026) and they change, so verify before you decide.
An AI that builds the automation, not just the caption
Describe a multi-step workflow in plain English and Babs assembles it as a real, editable flow — with approval gates on any step that touches the outside world.
29 connected apps, not just social networks
Beyond the usual networks, Babs connects to Notion, Slack, Airtable, Calendly, Make, Jira, Google Drive, Canva and more — so a post can be triggered by, or feed into, the tools you already run on.
Approval gates on anything consequential
Publishing, sending, and deleting can require a human decision before they run. Nothing irreversible happens because an AI decided it should.
Your own AI model choice
Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, or DeepSeek — pick the model per generation instead of being locked to whatever the vendor wired in.
An MCP server, so your own AI tools can drive it
Babs exposes its own tools over the Model Context Protocol, so Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP client can operate your accounts directly.
