Recon

For developers, indie hackers & startup founders

Your whole social presence.On autopilot.

Recon turns what you're building into posts, threads and short videos for every platform. Written in your voice, planned across your week, and posted for you, or left one tap away. No agency, no editing app, no content spreadsheet.

  • Posts & threads
  • Short videos
  • Scheduling
  • Auto-publishing
  • 8 platforms

the second job

Building is your job. Posting shouldn't be a second one.

  • Write the launch thread
  • Cut the demo into a 30-second video
  • Rewrite it all for LinkedIn
  • Find that screenshot again
  • Trim it to 280 characters
  • Post at the right time, every day
  • Remember to post again on Thursday
  • Add captions to the video
  • Turn the changelog into something human
  • Make it sound less like an ad
  • Resize for Reels, Shorts and TikTok
  • Keep five platforms in sync
  • Pick hashtags nobody reads
  • Stay consistent for more than two weeks
  • Explain the feature without the jargon

Recon does every one of these for you. You just approve. Or don't even do that.

one input, everything out

Feed it anything. Get everything.

  • commitfix: webhook retries no longer double-send
  • noteShipped dark mode. People asked for 6 months.
  • screenshotNew onboarding flow, 3 steps instead of 7
  • releasev2.0 — offline mode and faster sync
  • milestoneFirst 100 paying customers

0 ready-to-post pieces: a thread and posts shaped for each platform, plus a vertical video for Shorts, Reels and TikTok.

everything included

One platform. Nothing else to buy.

The writer, the video editor, the scheduler and the social media manager, in one queue you check with your morning coffee.

Writes like you

your noteshipped dark mode finally. took way too long lol

recon draft · in your voicedark mode is live. people asked for it for six months and it took way longer than it should have. worth it.

Learns from posts you've already written. No robotic brand voice, no “excited to announce”.

Makes the videos

Short vertical videos with burned-in captions, built from your real screenshots, code and numbers. No editing app.

Plans your week

A weekly calendar with your posting times, rest days, and a cadence you can actually keep.

Posts for you

Straight to the platform where it's allowed, one tap everywhere else, with a reminder at your posting time. On Pro, put the whole week on autopilot.

Every platform, one queue

X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok.

Never cringe

A built-in checker flags hype phrases, hashtag walls and made-up numbers before anything goes out, and redacts anything that looks like a leaked key.

Captures on the go

Paste a note, drop a screenshot or a screen recording from your phone. It's a draft within a minute.

Plugged into your work

GitHub commits, pull requests and releases, plus anything you drop in: notes, screenshots, screen recordings, launches, milestones.

changelog · rendered by Recon

short-form video

Reels, Shorts and TikToks. Without opening an editor.

01

Every release, as a video

Your version, your three best changes, your screenshots. A 20-second changelog reel, ready to post.

02

Show the code, explain the why

The actual diff types itself in, with captions that say why it matters. Developers stop scrolling for this.

03

Bug stories people finish

Symptom, cause, fix, in three beats. The most relatable post you'll make all week.

04

Milestones, with real numbers

Customers, users, releases. Only numbers that are really in your data, counted up on screen.

autopilot

Set it once. Your week fills itself.

Clean drafts drop into your open slots and go out at your times, unless you skip them. Where a platform can't be posted to directly yet, you get a one-tap reminder instead. Sunday stays a rest day. (Autopilot is part of Pro.)

built for builders

Made for people who ship.

for developers

You'd rather write code than captions.

Connect your repos. Recon reads what you merged and released, and turns it into posts and code walkthrough videos that other developers actually want to read.

“webhook retries now carry an idempotency key, so receivers see one alert per incident.”

for indie hackers

You're the product team, the support desk and the marketing department.

Build in public without it eating your evenings. A quick note from your phone becomes a thread, a LinkedIn post and a reel, scheduled across the week.

“Day 90: first 100 paying customers. Here's what actually moved the needle.”

for startup founders

Your launch deserves more than one tweet.

Every release, milestone and hire becomes a steady drumbeat on every channel your customers and investors follow, in a voice that sounds like the founder, not an agency.

every platform

One queue. Everywhere your audience is.

  • Posts directly todayBluesky
  • One click today: text copied, composer openedX · LinkedIn · Threads · Mastodon
  • Video ready to uploadYouTube Shorts · Instagram Reels · TikTok

Direct posting for X, LinkedIn, Threads and Mastodon is next. We only switch it on for a platform once it works reliably; until then it's one tap, with a reminder at your posting time.

Grow your audience while you build your product.
