The unsexy truth about being a creator: half your time isn't creating — it's guessing what works, negotiating with brands and analyzing trends. Kinetik handles everything around content and monetization, so the best part – making it – stays yours. It learns your niche, tells you what works, what to post next and how to monetize. Chat via WhatsApp – voice, photos or text – not every creator needs to be organized, unless it's Kinetik.
I connected my long dormant Instagram account and it whipped up a plan for how I could get it back on track after I suggested that I could mine my 2004-2018 Flickr archive for interesting screenshots:
Oh that's a goldmine. 2004-2018 Flickr screenshots from you means we're talking about the birth of basically everything — Twitter, early Facebook, the hashtag proposal, Product Hunt, the whole social web evolution captured by someone who was shaping it.
That changes the strategy from "good" to "nobody else on earth could do this.
We're still in the plotting and scheming phase, but I appreciate how it went deep on my background as a reluctant creator and offered proactive suggestions to unblock me:
What I can do right now without you lifting a finger:
Start building a "greatest hits" shortlist. If you can share even a small batch of screenshots — say 50-100 from different eras — I'll:
• Tag them by era, platform, and theme
• Rank them by IG potential (nostalgia factor, "wow I forgot that existed" factor, historical significance)
• Draft captions in your voice (short, punchy, zero hashtag spam — obviously)
• Mock up a first month of posts
What do you think? Should I pull the trigger? 😅

@chrismessina , this made my morning. The "nobody else on earth could do this" line is exactly the angle most creators miss about themselves. You absolutely should pull the trigger!

Hey PH! Andrew here, CEO and Founder of Kinetik.
We live in an interesting time when every content creator needs to become an entrepreneur, and every entrepreneur needs to become a content creator.
Everyone we interviewed said a similar thing: "I got into this to create, not to run a business" — or the opposite: "I got into this to run my business, not create content." One creative job comes wrapped in 20 others nobody signed up for. Research, scripts, media kits, brand emails, trend analysis, monetization, packaging.
AI tools don't always help either. The best products feel embarrassingly simple. Most of today's AI feels the opposite: overpromised, overloaded, somehow still not solving the actual problem.
We interviewed a bunch of creators recently:
One spent months training ChatGPT to write like her. With no luck. Husband suggested Claude. Her answer: "Start over? Train it again? No."
Another records voice notes while cooking and writes them down manually because no tool gets the format.
A food creator in Paris gets 37 messages a month about her spots and has no idea how to turn that into a product.
We built Kinetik for those moments (and for us, we use it daily). You voice-note it on WhatsApp or Telegram. It connects to your Instagram, learns your niche and voice, remembers everything you've ever said to it and delivers your tasks, not generic output.
It is, deliberately, very simple to use.
First 50 creators get free access, 1 year. Just tell me: which one of unwanted jobs eats the most of your week (and energy)?

I tried Kinetik in many different ways, and the thing I love the most is that I can use it as my creative memory. I drop in voice notes with everything on my mind – raw ideas, screenshots, links with voice comments, tasks to dig into. And none of it gets lost. It's surprised me a few times by reminding me that I already had some ideas, keeping my ambition to start a blog in sight, or spotting connections between my marketing work and my side projects. Honestly, it feels like a little daemon for any of my endeavors! The more I use it, the more I enjoy and learn how much we can do together.

@yemefer Thank you Inna <3 This is one of the key Kinetik's strengths! It learns from you, from your content. Don't be shy to correct it as it learns super fast!

This morning I woke up and doomscrolled the listings on PD, little brain dead stumbled upon Kinetik and was triggered by the “partially” customizable agent approach.
I quickly found out the integration with Wa WhatsApp and Tg Telegram.
We’ll as @chrismessina before me noted, “impressive”
That’s the word that covers the goods.
I was pretty sceptical, a session of 2!!!hours later, feeling there is more, isn’t normal behavior for a model, whereas ship and deliver the number one rule seems to be, kinetik somewhat want to dive into the overal picture first.
Next to impressive I would call Kinetic “Refreshing” and “inspiring”
Only miss a STS button.
Decided to support the tool with a small sub fee.
Keep up the good work champs

@gerrie, gerco, this means a lot. thanks for the time and the support.
on sts totally hear you, it's a great ask. try this: in any session, just tell kinetik "let's talk about this in voice notes, i send voice, you reply with voice." most of the time it gets it. if it doesn't stick for you, ping me and i'll help you set it up properly.
i know voice notes back-and-forth isn't real-time speech-to-speech. but honestly, in my own testing, full real-time sts (the chatgpt or claude flavour) drops the model's intelligence noticeably and the conversation goes shallow fast. the voice notes balance feels like the right tradeoff for now.
followed you on x by the way! happy to keep chatting over there.

Сan't really call myself a big creator — I just run an IG with photos for myself and people close to me. Every now and then i've thought about wanting to get better, but reaching out to actual experts always felt a bit awkward (hello, imposter syndrome). and now i've got my own personal assistant with all the world's knowledge right at my fingertips — amazing!
Just got my photos reviewed and beyond the nice words like
masterful minimalism — a boat, a fisherman, a seagull, perfect balance"
or
"you have a strong sense of moment and atmosphere — that's the most valuable thing, and it's hard to teach"
Kinetik also pointed me to specific photographers whose work i should study and learn from. That's the kind of guidance i'd be too shy to ask a real photographer for.
Сan't share insights yet (hello again, imposter syndrome), but super hyped and excited to keep going!

Hey PH! 👋
I stopped using ChatGPT. Seriously.
Not because it's bad — but because I got tired of re-explaining myself every time. New chat = new context = start from scratch. Over and over.
With Kinetik, I just text it in WhatsApp like I'd text a friend. It remembers everything — my content plan, my goals, my tone of voice. I don't need to set anything up or switch between apps. It's just there, every day.
It even pushes back when I procrastinate on posts I promised to write 😄
The simplicity is what got me. No dashboards, no onboarding tutorials, no "let me configure my workspace." You open WhatsApp, you type, it works.
If you've ever felt like AI tools promise a lot but still somehow make your life harder — try this one.

I’d been putting off using AI for a long time, but @yemefer inspired me. The product is fantastic — in just two minutes, I was able to test my hypotheses about university admissions and explore my business idea. Navigating bureaucratic issues in a new country usually takes forever, and this made it feel effortless.

@yemefer@elena_beloborodova thank you Elena, it's much appreciated! Let us know where Kinetik was helpful for you exactly? Tell us your story, we will be happy to feature it in our channels
Well, since I'm just starting out, I simply formulated a question I'd spent two days researching independently, without AI. Specifically, I wanted to know what programs were available based on my needs. And I must say, the answers I received within a few minutes with Kinetik largely matched the results I'd found on my own. On top of that, it gave me an additional result I hadn't come across — even though the university is much closer to me and might be exactly what I'm looking for.
Moreover, Kinetik corrects my English so gently yet so helpfully that I'm actually considering using it as a tutor.
