About SelfSM
SelfSM is an AI-powered platform designed specifically for social media ghostwriters and small agencies managing multiple client accounts (3+). Built solo in public by maker Vladimir Iudin and shaped closely by beta users, SelfSM streamlines the entire client content workflow from ideation to publishing.
The platform solves common pain points like generic AI output and messy collaboration threads by providing isolated client workspaces. Each workspace features a dedicated Brand Brain that captures unique voice profiles, key facts, and banned phrases, ensuring generated AI drafts sound genuinely like the client rather than standard ChatGPT output. Additionally, SelfSM replaces scattered Google Docs and chaotic DM threads with streamlined approval workflows, a built-in content planner, scheduling tools, and a handy Chrome extension that effortlessly turns any post you browse online into a ready-to-use draft.

About Alfred By Aligno
Alfred by Aligno acts as an 'AI Head of Product,' designed to streamline and demystify the product discovery and decision-making process. By integrating deeply into a company's existing tech stack—including customer calls, support tickets, Slack conversations, product analytics, and even the codebase—Alfred centralizes scattered data. When a product manager asks a question about what to build next, the AI sifts through these diverse sources to find concrete evidence rather than relying on gut feelings or opinion battles. Once the research phase is complete, Alfred evaluates the potential impact and technical feasibility of the proposed feature. It doesn't just stop at analysis; the tool goes a step further by recommending a strategic path forward and drafting a fully cited Product Requirements Document (PRD) or roadmap item for human review. This comprehensive approach aims to significantly reduce the time spent digging for context, allowing product teams to focus on execution and strategy.

- Highly dependent on the quality and organization of a company's internal data; messy data will lead to poor recommendations.
