Attie is Bluesky's first AI product — a standalone app built on the AT Protocol and powered by Anthropic's Claude that lets users create custom social media feeds in natural language without any coding. Built by Jay Graber (Bluesky's founder) and a new internal "Exploration team", it was unveiled at the ATmosphere conference in late March 2026. The core use case: instead of accepting the algorithm Bluesky gives you, you describe the feed you want in natural language ("show me posts from indie hackers about AI tools, no politics, ranked by engagement") and Attie builds it. Because it runs on AT Protocol, it has access to the full social graph and content signals across all ATProto apps, not just Bluesky. Attie is currently invite-only for ATmosphere attendees, with a public waitlist open. It's already become the most-blocked account on Bluesky other than J.D. Vance — a sign that AI-mediated social feeds are contentious even among the decentralized-web crowd. Future versions will let users vibe-code entire ATProto apps.

Inrō is an AI-powered Instagram marketing agent that handles direct messages end-to-end. Instead of templated auto-replies, Inrō runs full conversations: it engages audiences, qualifies leads, answers questions, routes complex inquiries, and closes sales — all personalized to your brand voice. A comment-to-DM automation flow means any engagement on your posts can trigger a personalized outreach sequence. Under the hood, Inrō layers a CRM with 30+ filtering options, audience segmentation, and branching logic on top of its DM automation. It integrates with Shopify, Stripe, Calendly, and 8,000+ apps via Zapier and Make. Unusually, it also ships an MCP server, meaning Claude and ChatGPT can be plugged into your Instagram funnel as reasoning layers on top of Inrō's automation. With 10,000+ active users and a 4.93/5 Product Hunt rating, Inrō hit #2 on Product Hunt today. For any brand, creator, or small business whose primary acquisition channel is Instagram, this replaces a significant chunk of community management overhead. The MCP integration is an interesting bet on the agentic future of marketing.
Reviewer scorecard
“Using an AI to write your own feed algorithm, on open protocol rails, is fundamentally different from accepting a black-box recommendation system. The AT Protocol data access is the real moat — it gives Claude context no other AI social assistant has. This is the most interesting social AI product in years.”
“The MCP server is a developer-savvy move — it means you can drop your own LLM reasoning into the Instagram funnel without rebuilding the automation layer. The API + webhook support rounds out what's genuinely a developer-friendly marketing tool.”
“Most-blocked account on Bluesky before public beta — the decentralized/open-web community is deeply skeptical of AI-mediated content, and they're not wrong to be. Natural language feed algorithms also sound better than they work; niche interest filtering is still inconsistent. Wait for the waitlist to open and test it yourself.”
“Instagram's Terms of Service have historically played whack-a-mole with automation tools. One API policy change could kneecap the entire platform overnight. And 'AI-personalized' DMs can cross into uncanny valley territory that damages brand trust if the tone is even slightly off.”
“When users can describe their own feed filters in natural language on open protocol data, the algorithmic chokehold that Twitter and Meta have wielded for years becomes technically obsolete. Attie is early and rough, but it's pointing at the end of platform-controlled content distribution.”
“The real story here is the MCP integration — when your CRM, scheduling tool, and payment processor can all be reached through a single conversational agent in someone's Instagram DMs, the funnel becomes a fully agentic sales pipeline.”
“Every creator hates algorithmic feeds. Attie gives actual control — intent-based filtering instead of opaque engagement optimization. If it works, building a 'show me everything from the 50 creators I care about plus viral design content' feed in five minutes changes social media for creators entirely.”
“For creators selling digital products or coaching offers, this is a game-changer. Comment-to-DM flows that actually understand context and can book a call or process a payment without a human in the loop is the creator economy dream made real.”
