Auto-moderation: Block spam and harmful comments before they escalate
NapoleonCat’s Auto-moderation lets you prepare for a social media crisis ahead of time and keep customers in the loop about what’s happening. Create and customize automated rules triggered by specific keywords, sentiment, and AI-detected spam or hate to automatically hide inappropriate and harmful content. This way, nobody will ever see it, and it won’t disrupt your comment section.
AI assistant: Auto-detect spam, hate speech, and negative sentiment in real-time
The AI Assistant can automatically detect spam, hate speech, and negative comments as they come in, so you can react instantly. Automatically hide spam and hate or assign a negative comment to a moderator, so they can prioritize responding before a full-on crisis blows up.
Social inbox: Monitor all platforms for potential issues from one dashboard
With a centralized Social Inbox, you can monitor all your social media accounts, including comments, DMs, and reviews, and even comments on social media ads. And you can act accordingly straight from the Inbox, too, including hiding, deleting, replying, and more.
Smart trigger rules: Automatically moderate based on AI-detected sentiment
The sentiment the AI Assistant detects can automatically trigger a response via Auto-moderation:
- Like or say “thank you” to a positive comment
- Flag, hide, and/or assign a negative comment to a moderator
- Respond to a negative comment in a DM to take the conversation private and resolve a customer issue.
Set up smart rules for organic posts and ads, for specific social media posts or time-limited campaigns, for a really flexible and customized social media crisis management.
Instant crisis response: Remove harmful content before it spreads
With automated detection of hate speech by AI, you can react instantly to harmful content and support your human team with automated rules that will remove it before anyone has a chance to see it.
Unified command center: Coordinate your team’s crisis response across all channels
Using NapoleonCat, your customer service, marketing, and PR teams can work together using one dashboard. Automate moderation, prioritize replies, exchange feedback, and consult other teams or the client – all for a smooth social media crisis management workflow.
Get ahead of a social media crisis with the right tools
Here’s why our clients love NapoleonCat:
Join businesses that save hours every week with social media automation.
NapoleonCat saves up to one-third of a full-time position. That’s time we would otherwise spend manually moderating thousands of comments each month using the Meta Business Suite, profile by profile and comment by comment. Time we can now use for growth. NapoleonCat is the best tool of its kind on the market, and it’s still constantly evolving and improving by introducing new AI features.
It’s hard to imagine our work without a tool that includes so many valuable features. It won’t be an overstatement when I say that NapoleonCat saves us multiple full-time positions that would be dedicated to just moderating comments or manually generating reports.
NapoleonCat gives us the full picture of social media interactions. It’s easier to pick up urgent threads that need taking immediate action. And with conversation history, it’s much easier to continue the work of another team member while they’re out of office.
We work with multiple clients, and with NapoleonCat, we don’t waste time switching between multiple software tools. We can also deliver reliable data from a single source. We tested other social media moderation and analytics tools before, but none of them lived up to what NapoleonCat delivers. They’re the best, and I personally love using the tool. 🙂
NapoleonCat is now an indispensable tool that we use for moderation and analytical purposes, as well as content publishing. We’re curious to see new capabilities of the tool and test its new uses, for example, to moderate TikTok ad comments, as we predict this social media channel to become more and more important for our clients.
It’s the first social media engagement tool we have ever tried that is truly intuitive and that makes it easy for us to include the clients in the process. The service and support is great and personal. And the value for money is great!
We were looking for a tool that would allow us to consolidate and manage comments and private messages from Messenger in one place. Analytics and reports were also very important to us, as they would show us the level of our social media customer service. That’s why, in 2017, we decided to choose NapoleonCat.

FAQs
What is social media crisis management?
Social media crisis management is the process of detecting, controlling, and resolving negative situations on social platforms before they damage your brand reputation.

Automation helps you react instantly — even before your team manually steps in. With Auto-moderation, you can create rules triggered by specific keywords, sentiment, spam, or hate speech.
