Find social posts and prep sponsor emails with Claude
A writer used Claude to search social networks for topic-related posts and turn them into a spreadsheet for outreach work.
- What they did
- They turned on Claude's computer-use tool on a Mac and assigned the task from their phone using Dispatch. Claude scanned X, Reddit, and LinkedIn for posts connected to the article topic, then exported the results to an Excel file on the desktop.
- How it went
- It came back with 44 posts in around 10 minutes, arranged in two sheets, including a themes tab. LinkedIn entries included engagement numbers, while X and Reddit did not.
- Tips
- This setup depends on a Mac, a paid Claude plan, and a computer that stays awake until the job is done. For outreach, keep the agent in draft mode and review the messages before any sending happens.
Try it yourself with Claude computer use
I create [type of content] about [topic]. Look through X, Reddit, and LinkedIn for recent posts that match it, then build a spreadsheet with one tab for the results and one for recurring themes. Also make a list of [number] possible sponsors in [niche], include contact info when you can find it, and write a brief outreach draft for each. Stop before any message is sent and show me the spreadsheet and drafts so I can decide what to do next.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
