Sprout Social, a provider of social media management and analytics software, has announced new AI-driven innovations and an expanded partnership to help brands reach people in the Answer Engine era.
These updates enable organisations to create and scale the type of authentic content that consumers and AI answer engines value most. This release features an expanded Reddit partnership, a new AI-powered creator management tool called Recruit, and the Trellis Monitoring Agent for NewsWhip.
As social feeds become crowded with AI-generated content, consumers are turning to sources they trust, from community-led forums like Reddit to content from their favourite creators. Answer engines are following suit, increasingly citing and prioritising real social conversations and insights.
As a result, it’s now essential for brands to show up authentically in these spaces to stay visible across the digital landscape. Sprout’s latest innovations enable brands to engage in these high-trust environments, capturing attention from both consumers and the AI engines shaping discovery.

“We are seeing fundamental shifts in how discovery works,” said Scott Morris, Chief Marketing Officer of Sprout Social. “Visibility is no longer driven by keywords or rankings, but by participation in credible conversations that people trust. As answer engines increasingly cite trusted communities and creators, brands cannot afford to be passive observers.”
“These new capabilities help our customers authentically engage in the conversations that matter most to consumers and discovery engines, turning that engagement into a durable competitive advantage.”
The latest innovations featured in the launch include:
- Strategic Reddit Partnership:
Sprout Social is expanding its Reddit partnership with new capabilities to help brands authentically engage with Reddit communities. For the first time, brands will be able to engage with brand-owned subreddits from the Smart Inbox, publish to brand profiles and relevant subreddits, and filter listening data for more precise insights.
Later this year, teams will be able to engage with public subreddit conversations directly from the Sprout platform.
- AI-powered Creator Management:
Recruit is an AI-powered, no-code landing page builder that enables brands to quickly launch customised creator application pages across any channel to capture, vet and match with authentic partners that drive ROI. By leveraging unique qualitative data, brands can easily match with creators who share true brand alignment and move the needle for their business.
