About Hootsuite

Hootsuite is a social media management platform that supports content creation and publishing, customer conversation management, performance analytics, social listening, and employee advocacy. Users can connect multiple social accounts to Hootsuite and handle publishing and scheduling, view analytics, and track trends and competitor activity all in one platform. According to the official website, every plan includes the built-in AI assistant Wisdom, which helps draft content, offer suggestions, and run analyses. Hootsuite also provides REST API documentation and MCP support, making it easy for developers to build integrations or let AI assistants access Hootsuite data and workflows. On the security side, the official Trust Center page lists SOC 2 Type II audits, ISO 27001/27017/27018/27701 certifications, FedRAMP authorization, and UK Cyber Essentials, among other certifications and audits.
