Product Strategy
AI marketing team, governed like a control panel.
Hoopoe starts with the proven social-management foundation: connected channels, content calendar, publishing, inbox, analytics and approvals. Then it adds a controlled autonomous layer that can plan campaigns, produce content, respond to customers, capture leads, follow up, and improve results.
Comprehensive Plan
Build Metricool's foundation, then give it accountable autonomy.
The product should not become Metricool with extra buttons. It should become a governed operating loop: objective in, campaign out, conversations handled, leads followed up, results measured, and the next campaign improved.
Keep the proven foundation
Workspaces, brands, official channel connections, content calendars, inbox, analytics, approvals, and reports.
Add a controlled autonomous layer
Campaign planning, content production, approved publishing, response handling, lead capture, follow-up, and optimisation.
Make every action governable
Automation levels, approval thresholds, audit logs, policy rules, spend limits, and emergency pause controls.
Tie social work to revenue
Every comment, message, lead, appointment, proposal, sale, and report is connected to the campaign that created it.
Social-management foundation
First, match the central control panel customers already understand.
Hoopoe should use official APIs, authorised accounts, secure tokens, supported inbox permissions, scheduled jobs, and transparent platform limitations. That is the non-negotiable base for safe automation.
Workspace model
Account -> workspace -> brand -> channels, team, campaigns, CRM, automations
Connections
OAuth, account selection, encrypted tokens, permission checks, renewal, webhooks
Publishing
Platform adapters, media validation, queues, retries, reconciliation, manual handoff
Inbox
Permitted comments and messages collected through official APIs and webhooks
Analytics
Followers, reach, impressions, engagement, ad performance, best-time signals, exports
Approvals
Team and client review with dynamic gates created from policy rules
Autonomous Loop
Objective in. Revenue learning out.
Each step produces structured output, records why it acted, and routes higher-risk work through the policy engine before anything reaches a customer.
Observe
Read business profile, channels, audience patterns, CRM movement, and campaign history.
Example business objective
"I need 20 new catering customers in Nairobi during August with a budget of KSh 30,000."

The difference between useful autonomy and risky automation.
Hoopoe should decide whether it can act, needs approval, or must hand off to a person. The rules are readable, auditable, and tied to brand knowledge.
