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.

A new rule offers to hide 23 matching comments from the last seven days.

Posting

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.
