Excited to introduce Otter Script on Product Hunt—a tool to automate and streamline text-based workflows. Ideal for managing content, marketing, or bulk tasks, Otter Script offers a flexible, customizable solution. See how it can transform your workflow!
Hey Product Hunt,
I’m one of the co-founders of Otter Script, and I’m really happy to share our journey with you. We created Otter Script to automate text-based workflows and make them flexible enough to be used for almost any project.
If you’ve got a bulk task that needs doing, Otter Script is your go-to tool. Consider this workflow:
You provide a business description
We generate a list of SEO keywords (or you can provide your own)
Then we generate 100 blog post ideas with titles and descriptions
Then we generate the entire blog posts
Then we write a linkedin post and a tweet for each
Then we translate them ALL to french, and german, and italian, and mandarin, and japanese…
Then we’ll translate all of the linkedin posts and the tweets as well.
The best part? The workflows are 100% customizable to fit your needs. You have full control over each step’s instructions and outputs.
My co-founder and I have been working on Otter Script for the past couple of years, refining it to be as customizable and useful as possible and we’re excited to bring it to the Product Hunt community.
Otter Script is available for free during our testing period, and we’re really interested in hearing your thoughts. Thanks for taking the time to check it out.

@sinajamshidi2 Congrats on launching Otter Script! The flexibility and automation of workflows sound amazing, especially with the multi-language capabilities. I’m curious about how Otter Script handles the quality of generated content—particularly in different languages. Do you have any specific models or techniques to ensure accuracy and context, especially when translating to languages with different cultural nuances? Also, how does the customization work in terms of refining outputs based on feedback or specific project needs?
@devindsgbyq
Thanks Devin! And thank you for the questions.
Right now we are not using our own model. We are working with other LLMs. As bootstrapped founders we don't quite have the resources yet, but in the future we would like to have models customized for specific domains and usecases. This will help the quality to be even higher.
As we tackle those challenges we will also build in more functionality for feedback based improvement.
Right now context will come from the user provided information and the previous steps in a workflow

Great job! I love the simple homepage and more importantly the video. I watched and got a great understanding of your product. I hate when videos are ads, show me how it works and you did!
One suggestion: this could be a paid feature or free but if you could do website scrapping and generate site descriptions and keywords for the user that would take automation to the next level.
The article table is overwhelming. I get the flow and the number of articles is great but consider just one article view at a time.
Right now I am not even looking at the articles for quality because it's so many.
Also when I click continue, it doesn't make sense I have to scroll back down the bottom to hit another button to generate, the continue feels like a continue the flow and do the next generating portion.
great product

Honestly, one-click generating would be more beneficial.
return a view of one article with the LinkedIn post and Twitter post. then the rest of the article below that in order. Also Not sure which frame work you're using but those LinkedIn and Twitter should be one click sharable.
@userinsite
Great suggestions. Some we were already planning and some we'll have to add to the list!
I agree we have some work to do for the UI/UX to be even smoother. Right now we are just prioritizing launching so we can get feedback on the direction, but we are definitely keeping it in mind. In fact, my co-founder is a designer so we have huge Figmas with ideas.
We would love to hear more about how you would like to use Otter Script so please feel free to reach out with a meeting: https://calendly.com/otterscript..., or through the links in-app with more thoughts!
@userinsite
Ooooh I love the idea of a one-click share/post!
We definitely have some ideas for both external inputs and external outputs but I also love the idea of making it that easy

Hi @userinsite
My name is Alborz. I'm the other co-founder of Otter Script :)
Thank you for your feedback.
on scrolling all the way down to click continue: we are working on a fix right now.
the table being overwhelming. we are exploring a few different ideas that should help make the table more digestible. that one's a big one to solve, but I think we have some good ideas.
website scrapping is on our roadmap. We would love to hear more from our users first to decide what to prioritize. website scraping, API triggers for workflows, image generation, can all be done.
If you have some time, i would love to hear more about your specific workflows and see how we can be helpful. You can book a time on calendly from our landing page linked above.
Best,
Alborz

What kind of inputs, can trigger the scripts? Would it be possible react on discussions happening inside your social media chanells for example?
Report
Hi @ondrej_halek. My name's Alborz, I'm the other co-founder of Otter Script. We have multiple triggers planned. Automatic triggers based on social media posts would be a very interesting flow for sure. Please reach out to us if you'd be interested in using such a trigger. We'd love to hear more about your use cases.

congrats on creating a platform that can help users create complex documents in minutes. The ability to create custom workflows and reuse outputs sounds incredibly useful for streamlining repetitive tasks. I'm also really interested in the ability to generate advanced tables. This could be a game-changer for anyone who works with a lot of data! Looking forward to seeing what future updates hold. Do you have any plans for AI-powered content generation within Otter Script?
Report
So yet another tool to "automate" our lives, cool idea but does anyone really need another customizable workflow for text tasks, it's starting to feel like developers are out of genuinely new ideas, might be useful but also might just be another thing to clutter our already full plates 🤷♂️
Hi @lupe_spalla!
Totally fair point. We are also not fans of huge fragmented stacks. It'll be up to each user whether potential time savings are worth adding one more tool to their process. We've worked with some folks who have found Otter Script a worthwhile investment, for example in digital marketing and in product. With this launch we're hoping to get more feedback and tailor Otter Script to be even better!
Report
Seems like another app promising to simplify tasks but ends up being just another thing to set up, would be curious to see if it really delivers on reducing workload or just adds to it 👀
Hi @aubayrecruiter ! thanks for the comment.
A bit biased but I would put us in the former case 😅
With this launch, we're looking to get more feedback and get better and better!
Doesn’t look like there’s a way to see the app or results without creating an account. You should consider removing friction from experiencing what OS is offering-congrats on the launch!
