Fill the morning rush without spending mornings posting.

Coffee shops & cafés, SocialCTL is a virtual social media team for coffee shops and cafés. It plans a month of posts in about 60 seconds, then generates pour reels, brew-method carousels and neighborhood posts in your café's brand, ready to schedule across 8 networks. A reel costs about 30 credits, a carousel about 20 and a static post about 10 — so a busy month rarely needs more than one plan.

Reels of the morning pour

Vertical videos of your craft from a prompt or a single photo — no videographer, no editing app.

Brew-method carousels

Five-slide breakdowns: bean origins, pour-over vs. espresso, the perfect crema — copy your regulars actually read.

Customer features

Spotlight regulars, latte art and seasonal drinks with posts that celebrate the neighborhood.

How it fits a café

One brief in the morning, a month of content by lunch.

Tell SocialCTL you run a neighborhood café, pick your networks and hit generate. You get a full calendar of ideas mapped day-by-day — pour reels, seasonal drink drops, brew-method carousels and customer shoutouts — each one already carrying your café's name, colors and voice.

  • Planned around your week — Weekend brunch pushes, quiet-Tuesday specials, new-bean announcements.
  • Your café, not a template — The brand kit puts your logo and palette on every render.
  • Scheduled to convert — Queue the morning-rush and after-work slots and forget it.

Frequently asked.

Will the videos and captions look generic?
No. Your brand kit — logo, colors and voice — is baked into every render, and captions are written from your brief, not a stock template. Two cafés never get the same feed.
How fast is the first post live?
Setting up the brand kit takes a couple of minutes, the calendar plans itself in about 60 seconds and a reel renders in minutes. Most cafés schedule their first post in the first sitting.
What does this cost for my posting volume?
Content is priced in credits: a reel is about 30, a carousel about 20 and a static post about 10. A café posting a few reels and a couple of carousels a week fits comfortably inside a monthly plan, and you can top up with credit packs whenever a big launch needs more.
I already work with a photographer — is this a replacement?
No — it complements them. Use your photographer for hero shots, then let SocialCTL turn a single photo into a reel, build the surrounding carousels and posts, and keep the calendar full on the days you don't have a shoot.
Do I need a videographer or editing skills?
Neither. You type a prompt or upload one photo and get a finished vertical reel. There's a timeline editor if you want to tweak it, but you never have to open it.
Which networks can I post to?
Eight: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Threads, Pinterest and Discord. Plan once and schedule the same month across all of them.
Can I switch from my current tool without losing anything?
Yes. There's nothing to import — you set up your brand kit once and generate forward. Keep your old scheduler running until your SocialCTL queue is full, then cancel it.
Do I own the content I generate?
Yes. Everything you generate is yours to post, download and reuse anywhere — there's no watermark and no license to renew.
