AutoEngager — built for gaining followers
AutoPost keeps you visible. AutoEngager grows your audience: it works other people's posts on your topics — one thoughtful like or reply at a time, in your voice, capped and logged.
Every scheduler on the market does the same half of the job: it posts your content and stops there. But posting makes you visible to people who already found you — it does not put you in front of anyone new. Follower growth happens in other people's conversations. That is the half AutoEngager does.
Two engines: visibility and discovery
OttoSocial runs two engines that do different jobs. AutoPost is the exposure engine: your updates, drafted in your voice, published on your cadence while you do other work. AutoEngager is the discovery engine — the marquee feature on Creator: it works other people's posts on your topics, so the people having the conversations you belong in actually encounter you.
How AutoEngager works
- Opt-in, and off by default — even on Creator. You switch it on in Settings; nothing engages in your name until you do.
- A handful of times a day, at randomized human times inside your waking hours — never on a metronome — it looks at fresh posts on your first topic.
- At each moment: at most one like, and usually one reply. The reply is generated for that specific post, in your voice and brand brief, and passes the same quality floor as everything else OttoSocial writes — a reply that misses the bar is skipped, never templated.
- Every like and reply lands in your Activity feed. No post is ever touched twice, and DMs and reposts are not part of it, ever.
The caps are the point
AutoEngager is strictly capped — a few genuine touches a day, at human times, against a hard daily budget (the Settings card shows today's likes, replies and estimated spend against it) — because discovery built on spam destroys the account it was meant to grow. The competition schedules posts. Creator also works the room — one thoughtful like and reply at a time, on your topics, in your voice, capped and logged.
The honest limit: no tool can promise follower counts, and this one does not. AutoEngager is designed to get you discovered by the right people. What they do when they land on your profile is up to your posts — which is exactly what AutoPost keeps consistent.
Pricing
AutoEngager is included on Creator ($39/mo) and Business ($99/mo). Pro ($24/mo) keeps the full AutoPost engine; the Settings card shows Pro accounts exactly what AutoEngager adds and what Creator costs, with one-click upgrade.
Frequently asked questions
Is AutoEngager a spam bot?
No — it is built to be the opposite shape. It is opt-in and off by default (even on Creator), fires at most one like and one reply per moment, runs a handful of randomized moments a day inside your local waking hours — never on a fixed tick — and runs against a hard daily cost budget that pauses it for the day well before the cap. Every reply is written for the specific post, in your voice, and quality-checked; a reply that misses the bar is skipped, never templated. Every action is logged in your Activity feed.
Which plan includes AutoEngager?
Creator ($39/mo) and Business ($99/mo). On Starter and Pro the Settings card shows exactly what AutoEngager does and what Creator costs on this site, with one-click upgrade — upgrading never switches it on for you; it stays off until you turn it on yourself.
Will AutoEngager guarantee I gain followers?
No tool can honestly promise follower counts, and this page will not either. AutoEngager is built for gaining followers in the only way that actually works: being genuinely present, consistently, in the conversations your future followers are already having — in your voice, on your topics. Discovery is the mechanism; your profile and posts close the loop, which is what AutoPost is for.
Does AutoEngager send DMs or repost people?
Never. Likes and replies only — no DMs, no reposts, no follow/unfollow games. Targets are deduped, so the same post is never touched twice, and you can switch AutoEngager off in one click at any time.
