Metropolis Social Oracle

Inspired by the predictive and societal elements of -Metropolis- and the interconnected narratives of -Hyperion-, Metropolis Social Oracle is a social media management tool designed for individuals and small businesses.

Story & Concept: Imagine a city (social media) powered by vast data networks, constantly evolving and unpredictable. Like Freder in -Metropolis-, users are striving to understand and connect within this system. Metropolis Social Oracle acts as your 'Maria,' bridging the gap between complex data and actionable insights. It anticipates trends like the Shrike's path in -Hyperion-, enabling users to prepare and capitalize on them.

How it Works:

1. Data Ingestion: The system scrapes data from various social media platforms (Twitter, Instagram, TikTok) using a lightweight, customizable scraper, similar to the 'AI Workflow for Companies' scraper project. This scraper focuses on identifying trending hashtags, keywords, and emerging themes within specific niches (e.g., sustainable living, indie game development, local restaurants). Data will be scraped using free or low-cost APIs.

2. AI-Powered Prediction: The scraped data is fed into a simple, open-source AI model (e.g., a refined version of a basic time series model, or a transformer-based model trained on social media data) to predict future trends and engagement opportunities. The AI model also analyses individual user data (e.g., past posts, followers, engagement metrics) to personalize its predictions.

3. Content Generation & Personalization: Based on the predicted trends and user data, the system generates personalized content suggestions, including text snippets, image ideas, and video concepts. The content generation will prioritize engaging and authentic content to foster organic growth.

4. Automated Scheduling & Engagement: The tool allows users to schedule posts and automatically engage with relevant content (e.g., liking, commenting) based on the predicted trends. This can be expanded into creating micro-communities based on targeted search parameters.

Niche & Low-Cost: The tool is niche-focused by allowing users to specify the industry/interest they're interested in, allowing the program to scrape data only from there. The focus on open-source AI models and lightweight scraping keeps the cost minimal.

High Earning Potential: The project has high earning potential through:
- Subscription Model: Offering tiered subscriptions based on the number of social media accounts managed and the level of AI-powered features.
- Affiliate Marketing: Partnering with other social media tools and services.
- Data Analytics Services: Providing customized data analytics reports to businesses based on the scraped and analyzed social media data.
- Freemium Model: Offering a basic free version and charging for access to advanced features and more in-depth analytics.
