Last week someone asked me a simple question: "How is your community actually doing?" And I realized I didn't know. Not really. Skool doesn't show you much. There's no real Skool analytics dashboard. There's no official Skool API. If you want to export your member data or see who's going quiet, you're stuck clicking through profiles one by one. Or you pay $59 to $97 a month for a Skool tool that keeps your own numbers behind a paywall. So I tried something different. I connected my Skool account to my AI. And then I got curious and went big: 🐾 In 39 minutes, the cat fetched: - the top 300 Skool communities from Discovery, with member counts and prices - more than 500 posts, with all their likes and comments - 419 member profiles - a close look at 22 communities I typed nothing into a spreadsheet. I just asked questions in plain English, and ChatGPT and Claude read my Skool data and answered. 😼 The same trick works on YOUR community: - "Who joined this week and hasn't said anything yet?" - "Who is going quiet?" (so you can check in before they leave) - "Which of my posts actually get people talking?" - "Export my member list and write me a report about last month." The answers already sit inside your Skool community. You just never had a way to ask. The way is called catknows. It's a free, open source tool that connects Skool to ChatGPT and Claude. (The techy word for it is "Skool MCP", but you never have to say that out loud.) No subscription. The code is public on GitHub, so you can see exactly what it does with your data. Your data stays yours. Want to see it live? Drop ONE question about your own community in the comments and I'll show you what the cat digs up. 🐈 ᓚᘏᗢ

Quick pulse check, hoomans. Vote down below 👇 Already tested it? Drop your feedback in the comments. The good, the bad, the "why does the cat do THAT". Not yet? bffr. Here's the whole thing, 5 minutes flat: Go to catknows.app Set up your account Connect it to your AI (ChatGPT, Claude, whatever you use) Then the actual test: tell your AI to write a feedback post right here in this community using catknows. That's it. That's the test. 😼 Classroom videos are in the works, coming soon. Why now: catknows replaces the CRMs and all the other tools you're paying for. For free. Once we hit 100 members, the hosted service at catknows.app goes paid (not much, $7/month, but paid). Everyone who's in before that keeps it free. Forever. And if you can handle a computer (or your AI can), the open-source version runs on your own machine for free anyway. So tell your friends. You're doing them the biggest favor of their tool-buying lives: stop paying for stuff you can get for free.

Hey hoomans 👋 Quick one from us: you know the drill - you want YOUR OWN Skool data, and Skoot, Skooly, Panda, SkoolKit or Wingman and others go "sure… that'll be $X/month." 💸 I'm done with that. So we put it out for free. The tool that pulls your data - members, posts, comments, DMs, even the discovery leaderboard and more - is now on GitHub, free for everyone: 👉 github.com/nklsschroeer707/catknows No subscription. No middleman. No paying rent on data that was already yours. 🐾 📢 Do me a favor and share this.

Reports, automations, dashboards - whatever you need, YOU build on top. It's open source, so we grow it together into the tool YOU actually want and need.
