AI social media manager for small business
The social media manager you don't have to hire.
Apaya learns your small business from your website, then writes, designs, and publishes your posts on schedule. You approve, and your pages stay active.
Everything a small business needs to keep your social media profiles active.
Writes your posts
Captions in your voice, learned from your own website.
Designs the graphics
Your logo, your colors, your fonts on every post.
Uses your photos
Photos from the job site or the shop become designed posts.
Turns your reviews into posts
The reviews on your website become social proof your followers see.
Plans your calendar
A schedule that fills itself, so there's never a "what do I post today" morning.
Publishes everywhere at once
Facebook, Instagram, Google Business Profile, LinkedIn, X, TikTok, and Pinterest.
Handles the last-minute stuff
A cancellation, a special, a weather closure: type one line, get ready-to-publish posts in minutes.
Shows you what happened
Reporting on what went out and how it performed.

Sounds like you
Posts that sound like your business, because they start from your business.
Most AI-powered social media tools start from a blank box and guess. Apaya starts from your website: your services, your wording, your customers, your reviews, your photos.
- Your voice, learned from the way your own pages talk
- Your real services and offers, so posts sell what you sell
- Customer reviews from your website become posts your followers trust
- An AI agent process that checks its own work

Every kind of business
Built for local service businesses, shops, and med spas.
Apaya learns each business from its own website, so a plumber's posts sell emergency service and a bakery's sell what came out of the oven this morning.
