  • “Which of our posts got the most engagement last month, and what do they have in common?”

  • “Write three variations of this post for Facebook and add them to the queue as drafts.”

How it connects

There's no official Claude connector for Buffer yet. Helm connects it using the method that suits your setup, whether that's a secure custom connector we build and host, or an AI agent that works inside Buffer with your team's approval. We'll recommend the right one on a 30-minute call.

Looking after your Buffer data

Buffer has publishing access to your social accounts, so Helm sets Claude up to draft and queue posts while a person decides what actually goes live.

  • Only the access you approve.
  • Everything stays in your own accounts.
  • On Claude's business plans, your data isn't used to train AI models.
