- A quiet social feed doesn't cost you anything you can see on an invoice. It just makes you a little harder to choose.
- Steady posting is less about clever content than about showing up every week, which is exactly what busy owners can't keep doing.
- RadiusLocal.ai Social plans three campaigns a week, writes them from your own business facts, makes the images and fits a version to every network you use.
- You keep control: approve every post, or let Autopilot publish under a plan you confirm.
- Social is launching soon. Plans are $49 a month, or $99 for Social Pro with videos made for you.
The week you didn't post
Ask a plumber, a dentist or a salon owner whether they should be posting on social media every week, and nearly all of them will say yes. Ask when they last did, and the answer is usually a shrug.
That isn't laziness. Posting well takes real time. Someone has to think of something worth saying, write it, find or make a picture, resize it for Instagram, shorten it for X, reformat it for Google, and then actually press the buttons at a sensible hour. For a business run from a van or a front desk, that hour almost never appears. So the feed goes quiet for a week, then a month, then a season.
Nothing breaks when that happens. There's no error message and no bill. Which is exactly why it keeps happening.
Why steady posting matters for a local business
Social media for a local business is rarely about going viral. It's about two quieter jobs.
- Looking open for business. When someone is deciding whether to call you, they may click through to your Facebook page, your Instagram or your Google Business Profile. Recent posts tell them you're active, you're local and you do the work they need. A page whose last post was a holiday greeting from long ago tells them less.
- Being remembered before the need arrives. Most people don't need a plumber, a roofer or a dentist today. A seasonal tip, a before-and-after or a quick introduction to your crew keeps your name familiar, so when the pipe bursts or the tooth aches, you're the name that comes to mind.
Neither job depends on one brilliant post. Both depend on rhythm: a steady stream of useful, accurate posts, week after week. That's the part that's hard to sustain by hand.
Social media for a local business isn't a talent contest. It's a habit. We built Social to keep the habit for you.
There's a second risk worth naming. When owners do hand posting to someone else, or to a writing tool, the posts can drift away from the truth: a service you don't offer, a guarantee you never made, an invented statistic. Posts with your name on them have to be right.
What RadiusLocal.ai Social does
RadiusLocal.ai Social is our answer to both problems. It does the weekly work in one workspace, and it writes only from facts you've given it.
- Connect the accounts you already have. Social is built to connect directly to 11 networks: Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, Threads, Pinterest, Google Business Profile, Bluesky, Mastodon, TikTok and YouTube. You sign in on each network's own page and confirm the account belongs to your business. There's no third-party scheduler underneath.
- Teach it your business once. Save your services, service area, hours and offers, plus your voice, your audience, your brand colors, a "never say" list and the times you like to post.
- Get three fresh campaigns every week. Each comes from a different angle: teach something useful, show your work, build trust, start a conversation or promote a service. Social writes the copy and creates an original image in the style you choose.
- One idea, the right version everywhere. A short version for X, a photo-first caption for Instagram, a local update for Google, a professional take for LinkedIn. Each one is checked against that network's length and format rules before you can approve it.
- Your call. Approve each post yourself, or let Autopilot publish eligible posts into your posting times under a plan you confirm.
The step-by-step detail is in our Knowledge Center guide, How RadiusLocal.ai Social works.
Built so nothing goes out that shouldn't
Handing posting to software only works if you can trust it with your name. So the safeguards are part of the design, not an add-on.
- Written from your facts. Posts are grounded in the business facts you saved. A claim your facts don't support is held for your review instead of being published.
- Exact-post approval. An approval is tied to the exact version you saw. If anyone changes a word afterwards, it needs approval again.
- Autopilot that stops itself. Automatic posting runs only under the plan you confirmed. If your facts, schedule, connected accounts or permissions change, it holds until you confirm again. You can also pause it with one click.
- Owner-only authority. Team members can draft and leave notes, but only the business owner can authorize standing automatic posting.
- Checked, not assumed. Where a network allows it, Social confirms a post is actually live before calling it published. If the network's answer is unclear, it checks rather than posting twice.
We were just as deliberate about what Social doesn't claim. It doesn't answer comments for you, it isn't unlimited, and it doesn't promise reach, followers or results. Each network's own rules still apply.
Two plans, public prices
Both plans are month to month, with no setup fee and no contract, for one business with up to 10 connected profiles and three team seats.
- Social, $49 a month: three new campaigns a week adapted for every network, writing and original images, Autopilot, the calendar, a private media library, and publishing of your own photos and finished videos.
- Social Pro, $99 a month: everything in Social, plus Video Producer, which turns campaigns into short narrated videos of 15, 30 or 60 seconds, vertical or wide, with music and captions.
Full details are on the Social pricing page.
Where it stands today
Social is launching soon. We'd rather tell you that plainly than let a polished website suggest otherwise. The product is built, and we are finishing the last pieces before sign-up opens, including approval of several network connections by the networks themselves. The prices above are the ones on the product site today.
In the meantime, you can watch the film and explore every network on social.radiuslocal.ai, book a live demo to see a month of posts built for a sample business, or use the Get started form there to tell us about your business.
The takeaway
You don't need a viral post. You need to show up, accurately, every week. That's a habit most owners can't keep by hand, and it's the one Social is built to keep for you, with your facts, your voice and your approval. While you wait for launch, start by writing down the facts you'd want every post to get right. They're the whole of setup.
