Olly - Your AI-Powered Second Brain

Tool Introduction

Olly Social is a Chrome-based AI social media assistant developed by AISOLO Technologies Private Limited; it allows users to create comments, replies, and posts directly on supported websites, as well as summarize or analyze existing content. The concept of an “AI second brain” mentioned in the database represents an earlier approach, while the current website and extension store focus primarily on social interaction, content creation, and the automation of brand tone.

Main functions

Contextual comments and content generation

The extension reads the post or discussion context that the user is viewing, and generates comments, replies, or new posts in accordance with the selected tone. Users should still check the facts, tone, and suitability for the platform before posting, in order to avoid a large number of similar entries that lead to low-quality interactions.

• Generate comments, posts, summaries, translations, rewrites, and creative drafts.
• Analyze the content and provide perspectives on interaction or dissemination.
• Multi-language content creation is supported, but the current interface language of the extension store is set to English.
• Operations can be performed directly on the webpage, reducing the need to copy content to a separate messaging tool.

AI Personalities and custom actions

AI Personalities enables the saving of distinct set of rules for different customers, brands, or positions, thereby ensuring that comments and posts maintain a consistent style of expression. Custom Actions allow users to define custom actions such as summarization, email generation, translation, and brainstorming.

• It is possible to create distinct identities for marketing, sales, customer service, recruitment, and technical writing.
• The new paid plan offers brand tone customization and unified social analytics.
• Multi-person teams should keep separate brand guidelines for each client, in order to avoid the reuse of the same tone in different accounts.

Automatic comments and social analysis

The new paid solution includes Auto Commenter, which enables interaction on LinkedIn, X, Instagram, and Facebook based on keywords, topics, and frequency. The automated functions must respect the appropriate pace and comply with the platforms’ anti-spam and automation policies; otherwise, the account may face restrictions or limitations.

• It is possible to set focus topics, interaction goals, and comment distribution.
• Provides interactive data and consolidated analysis across multiple platforms.
• The official team has labeled post scheduling and certain influencer discovery features as upcoming features; they should not be considered official features at present.

Usage tutorial

1. Install Olly from the Chrome Extensions store, create an account, and approve the extension’s permissions.
2. You can choose to use Olly’s built-in models, its built-in third-party API keys, or connect to local models via Ollama.
3. Create a brand tone or AI personality, specifying the target audience, style of expression, prohibited words, and factual boundaries.
4. Open a supported social platform and use Olly next to the target post to create comments or draft content.
5. It is reviewed and modified manually before being published; when automatic comments are enabled, the process starts at a low frequency with continuous monitoring of the account’s status.

Which users are it suitable for

• Individual creators who need to draft cross-platform comments and posts quickly.
• Consultants, sales professionals, and small businesses that wish to maintain a consistent brand tone.
• Managing multiple customer accounts requires separating social media agencies with different styles of communication.
• For advanced users who wish to use model keys from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others.
• Privacy-conscious users who wish to run compatible models locally via Ollama.

Price and page differences

The authorities are currently in the process of changing the pricing; the URL of the page with the new options includes the word “Upcoming”, so it’s not certain that these changes have already taken effect for all accounts. The number of free comments, points, trial periods, and payment cycles vary across different pages, and it is necessary to refer to the actual purchase page associated with one’s account.

Product advantages

• It can be embedded directly on social web pages, and the context of the current post can be utilized when generating content.
• It covers multiple social and community platforms, not just LinkedIn or X.
• It supports multiple cloud models, built-in keys, and Ollama local models, offering flexible options.
• AI Personalities and custom actions are suitable for distinguishing between multiple brands or workflows.
• A permanent, free access is provided to enable testing of the quality of comments and browser compatibility.

Usage restrictions and precautions

• Automatic comments may trigger the platform’s anti-spam or automation restrictions; therefore, the maximum rate cannot be considered as the safe frequency for posting.
• AI-generated content may contain factual errors, offensive statements, or repetitive phrasing; the account owner remains responsible for its publication.
• Using third-party model keys incurs costs on the part of the model provider, and Olly’s subscription fee may not cover such invocation costs.
• Local Ollama models require users to install them themselves, maintain them, and evaluate their performance; the use of local models does not mean that the Olly framework is open-source.
• Extensions need to handle page context and account information; it is necessary to regularly check browser permissions and avoid enabling them on sensitive pages.

Privacy and data

The official website states that API keys and certain work-related data are processed locally, but the extension store reveals that personal identity information is processed as well; cloud accounts, points, analytics, and proprietary platform models may also involve servers. Olly should be viewed as a hybrid architecture that gives priority to local processing, rather than one that does not come into contact with any user data at all.

The extended store statement specifies that the data will not be sold or transferred outside the approved uses, nor will it be used for credit assessment. Institutional users should still check the latest privacy policy, the way in which third-party model data is processed, and the permissions related to customer accounts.

Platforms and models

Olly is based on Chrome extensions and can be used on platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Product Hunt, YouTube, X, Threads, Quora, Hacker News, Medium, TikTok, and Skool. The actual buttons and automated commenting features vary depending on the structure and updates of each platform’s pages.

It can be connected to OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Straico, and OpenRouter; it also supports the use of local models via Ollama. The specific names of the models and their prices change over time, so it is necessary to refer to the current list provided by the model providers and the respective extensions.

APIs, SDKs, and open-source status

The terms of service mention the optional Olly Social API, stating that this API is subject to separate terms and pricing; however, the developers have not yet made available complete documentation, the relevant endpoints, or uniform pricing details. The fact that Chrome extensions can access multiple model APIs does not mean that Olly itself provides a general, free API.

The developers have not yet made public the open-source license for the Olly product itself, nor have they provided an official SDK. The fact that it supports Ollama and various open-source models merely indicates that it can call these models; it does not mean that the accompanying code is also open source.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a free version of Olly?

There is a permanent free access option, but different official pages provide varying figures regarding the number of free comments per day. After registration, it is necessary to check the actual quota available in your account.

Will Olly automatically post comments?

The new paid solution includes Auto Commenter, which enables automatic interaction at specified platforms and at set intervals. Before activating it, it is necessary to check the rules of the target platform, and manual review as well as a mechanism for disabling this feature should be in place.

Is it possible to buy the lifetime version as well?

The current product page clearly states that Lifetime is no longer available, and new users should not consider the previous one-time prices as the current pricing.
