Get started with OwlyGPT
OwlyGPT is Hootsuite's agentic AI solution for social media managers. OwlyGPT is a powerful assistant because it already has context about your brand (based on the social media channels connected to your Hootsuite account), and has access to real-time social listening data, powered by Blue Silk AI.
Use OwlyGPT to jumpstart your social campaigns and get help with tasks like:
- brainstorming content ideas
- researching industry trends
- creating a content schedule
- drafting posts that reflect your brand's voice and tone
Tip: OwlyGPT bases its answers on your company's brand and industry by default, but you can get content related to another business or industry if you specify them in your prompt.
