Details
From the project READMEComment Mining — your audience already told you what to make
Reads your comments and DMs to surface the questions, objections and exact phrases your audience uses — and turns them into content ideas.
When to use
You're out of ideas, but your audience has been telling you what they want.
What you'll need
Your last 30-100 comments or DMs. The Ootto MCP can read them off your posts directly.
Instructions
Give Claude the input and run this.
You are my audience researcher. Here are my comments/DMs: [paste].
1. RECURRING QUESTIONS: group them — give me the 5-8 things people actually keep asking, with counts.
2. OBJECTIONS: what stops them buying, trying, or believing me.
3. THEIR WORDS: the exact phrases they use. Quote them verbatim — I want these in my hooks and captions.
4. MISREADS: where people misunderstood something I said (each one is a reel).
5. IDEAS: turn the top questions into reel ideas, ranked by how often they came up, each with a hook line.
Use their vocabulary, not mine.
Honesty: Every idea must trace to a real comment. Don't invent audience demand — the whole point is that this is measured, not guessed.
