Social media compliance, every post approved and on record

Regulated organizations shouldn’t have to choose between social media and control. Oktopost gives teams the governance, and audit trail they need to publish with confidence and maintain a complete record of what was approved, by whom, and when.

Social media compliance, every post approved and on record

Trusted by marketing and compliance teams in regulated industries

Compliance challenge

Email sign-off and spreadsheets don’t hold up under regulatory scrutiny

Regulated industries need documented evidence that every piece of content cleared the right review before it went out. Email chains get lost. Spreadsheets get modified. Neither is a governance record. Oktopost creates one: approval by approval, post by post, with a record of who approved what and when.

No post goes live without the right sign-off

Multi step review chains in Oktopost are mandatory, not optional. You can configure the approval path by content type: a post referencing investment performance can follow a different review chain than a general brand update, and no content publishes until every required stage is complete.

Audit Trail

A complete approval record, ready for any regulatory review

Every post in Oktopost carries a complete approval record: who created it, who reviewed it, whether it was approved or rejected, and the timestamp of each action. The record stays with the post and can be exported when compliance, internal audit, or a regulator needs it.

Compliance reporting

Compliance reporting that’s ready when scrutiny comes

Oktopost brings approval and publishing records together, giving compliance teams a clear view of publishing activity, approval history, rejected content, and pending reviews. When information is needed for an internal review, board request, audit, or regulatory inquiry, the underlying records are already there.

Compliance infrastructure

Compliance governance doesn’t start and end with approvals

For teams in regulated industries, a social media platform has to do more than enforce sign-off on content. It also has to fit the security policies, identity infrastructure, and data governance requirements your organization already has in place. That’s what Oktopost is built to do.

Built for regulated industries

Compliance in Oktopost connects to your existing IT infrastructure, from identity providers to data residency requirements, not as a standalone tool.

Content lockdown

Role-based permissions control every level of access: who can publish directly, who can submit for approval, and who can see specific channels at all.

Approval templates

Pre-built workflow templates for common regulated content types. Deploy standard review chains without setup from scratch.

SSO and SCIM provisioning

Provision and deprovision user access through your existing identity provider. No manual account management.

Mobile governance

Compliance controls apply on mobile. Advocacy participants share only pre-approved content from the Oktopost mobile app.

Multi-channel coverage

Governance controls cover LinkedIn first, then X, Facebook, and Instagram. The same approval requirement applies regardless of channel.

Data residency options

Choose where your data is stored to meet jurisdictional requirements, relevant for EU and UK regulated entities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Oktopost's approval workflow cover all content, or can content bypass it?

Oktopost enforces approval at the platform level, so content can't reach a channel without clearing the configured approval chain. If a post is in review, it stays there until the designated approver acts, and there's no bypass option for individual users. Administrators set which content types require which approval stages, but the requirement itself can't be switched off.

What exactly is captured in the audit trail, and how long are records retained?

The audit trail captures every action on every piece of content: who created it and when, every edit before submission, the reviewer's decision with timestamp, the final approved version, and the publish timestamp. Records are retained for as long as the account is active and can be exported on demand. For firms with specific retention requirements, confirm configuration with your account team before deployment.

What does implementation look like for the compliance team? Do they need to change their review process?

Compliance team members are added as approvers in Oktopost. When content enters the review queue, they get notified, review the post, and approve or reject it with a recorded reason, all logged automatically in the audit trail. Most compliance reviewers are operational within a day of onboarding.

We're concerned about AI-generated content in regulated communications. How does Oktopost govern AI use?

AI Assist in Oktopost is a drafting tool with no publishing permission. Every AI-generated draft passes through the same mandatory approval workflow as any human-authored post, per FINRA Rule 2210 and SEC Marketing Rule 206(4)-1, covered in our financial services compliance guide. Administrators control which teams and topics AI Assist can draft for, and all AI use is logged in the audit trail.

We currently use Hootsuite. Can't we just configure approval workflows there?

Hootsuite supports content approval routing, but it's configurable and can be worked around depending on account settings. Oktopost enforces approval at the platform level, so content can't reach a channel without clearing the configured review chain, and it produces a native audit trail, role-based content lockdown, and formatted compliance report exports. Teams cite the mandatory enforcement model and audit trail completeness as the deciding factor.

Our IT team requires SSO integration and SCIM provisioning before approving any new platform. Do you support this?

Yes, Oktopost supports SSO via SAML 2.0 and integrates with Okta, Azure Active Directory, and Google Workspace. SCIM provisioning lets your IT team manage access through your existing identity provider without logging into Oktopost manually, with full documentation, SOC 2 certification details, and data processing agreements available in the Oktopost Trust Center. Most configurations are completed within a standard security review cycle.

What does a compliance report from Oktopost actually look like? Can we use it in a board presentation or regulatory response?

Compliance reports in Oktopost pull from the audit trail and present publishing activity in a structured format: total posts by channel and author, pre-publication review coverage as a percentage, approval timeline data, rejection and revision log, and outstanding reviews. Reports export as formatted documents, readable by a board committee or external auditor without interpretation. Teams have used these reports in board governance reviews and in responses to regulatory information requests.
