The comments that come with them

When a comment matches a rule you've switched on, Sence typically hides it within seconds and alerts whoever you choose. Replies are always sent by a person. Comments on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and your own site are read the moment they arrive. YouTube is checked every few minutes.

Create a rule and Sence offers to apply it to the last seven days of comments too, with a preview first.

FIG. 1 · A new rule offers to hide 23 matching comments from the last seven days. Demo data. Illustrative figures. Labels as they appear in Sence, September 2026.

Each story you tick in the RSS feed gets a poster from your template, and each channel's queue spreads the posts across its own slots, so posting more of your stories doesn't mean making more cards by hand. A story needs a photo unless the template uses a solid background.

Posts you publish through Sence go out to a comment section Sence is already watching.

Its 73 peers, A to Z

Each has a page of its own, beside its own peers. Each news brand's rank is among its own peers only. Being counted says nothing about which tools a newsroom uses.
