It can also be used to find “the most important comments” left by the user’s audience, and “instantly draft replies in your voice.”The Creator Studio app isn’t widely available yet, with TechCrunch reporting that Meta is currently testing it with “select creators.” There’s no mention of when it’ll roll out to everyone, but Facebook creators can join a waitlist to get early access. The original Creator Studio experience was shut down in 2023, in favor of pushing users to Meta’s more comprehensive Business Suite platform to manage their pages and schedule content.Follow topics and authors from this story to see more like this in your personalized homepage feed and to receive email updates.Jess Weatherbed
