Frequently Asked Questions
Hootsuite Streams are custom social media feeds that help you discover new engagement opportunities, find user-generated content to share, and keep track of activities across all your channels.
You can set up Streams to monitor your own social media posts, mentions of your brand from your customers and prospects, activity from your competitors, or your industry at large.
In Streams, you can monitor mentions, reply to public comments, and reshare relevant content. No more hopping back and forth between networks or conducting time-consuming searches individually — it’s all in your Hootsuite dashboard.
Streams are a great way to practice social listening because they help you keep track of social media activities related to your business or industry.
Note: If you need a more robust social listening solution, we recommend adding advanced social listening to your plan.
You can set up Streams to monitor activity across Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube. We recommend setting up Streams on each network to ensure you never miss an engagement opportunity, even if one pops up in an unexpected place.

How does it work? You provide pre-approved answers to your brand’s frequently asked questions (FAQs), and the generative AI chatbot will automatically digest and pull from that content to respond to customers. All you have to do is make sure your FAQs are up to date, and the FAQs chatbot will handle the rest. You’ll be up and running in a matter of hours.
Hootsuite’s conversational chatbot is trained to understand the intent and context of customer messages, even those with spelling errors, and automate personalized responses every time.
