What is story mention automation?
Every shoutout is a warm lead. Botyoo reacts, remembers, and replies before the story expires.
React the moment you're mentioned
As soon as someone tags you in a story, Botyoo likes the mention, saves the contact, and sends a thank-you DM, no manual checking, no missed shoutouts.
