Frequently asked questions
Which networks should a food and drink business track?
In food and drink, the audience is usually on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube above all. OPTIMUS tracks those and any other network the brand uses (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest and Threads) and shows in a pie chart how much each one contributes.
What content works in food and drink?
The fastest-rising formats in the sector are: the signature dish in slow motion (9 to 12 s reel); a day behind the bar or in the kitchen (first-person vlog); what to order on your first visit (carousel or short); a quick house recipe (30 s video). OPTIMUS checks every week which topics and sounds are rising for your specific category.
How are the accounts connected?
With the username, the profile link or the website address, where OPTIMUS finds the profiles on its own. That starts the public analysis; once the owner authorizes the account with read-only access, reach, audience and ad spend are added. OPTIMUS never posts or spends.
How much does it cost?
There is a free audit with public data. Plans go from US$49 a month for one brand to US$349 a month for agencies with fifteen brands and weekly reports.
