# Outposts

> Reply marketing for founders: agents find the buyers asking for what you sell on Reddit, X, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, Hacker News, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok, and write the reply in your voice for you to post from your own accounts, inside a warming lane and the 90/10 rule. It never signs in to your accounts. Paste a URL for a free marketing brief. Plans from $39 a month per venture.

Outposts never uses bought or managed accounts, never votes or likes, and the service never posts: the person posts, or their own Mac app presses Post when they switch that on. The safety architecture is public.
