• New digital publishing integrations streamline creative workflows, helping teams publish more compelling branded content and visuals to social faster.

Sprout Social, an industry-leading provider of cloud-based social media management software, announced a new wave of features and partnerships designed to help brands lead in the Social Intelligence era. As customers increasingly turn to platforms like TikTok and Bluesky for discovery, product recommendations, and real-time conversation, the ability to capture sentiment early and act fast has become essential. Sprout’s latest release will deliver powerful new TikTok Listening, expanded Bluesky publishing and reporting, alongside new creator collaboration tools, all built to turn every social interaction into insight, action, and measurable business impact.

With search habits shifting and consumer preferences evolving, social has become the go-to destination for information, entertainment and community. It’s where people discover new brands, research products, and make decisions in real time. This shift creates a powerful opportunity for brands to turn social into a revenue-driving channel and a source of vital customer intelligence. Sprout’s latest capabilities–spanning influencer marketing, publishing, listening, and analytics–give brands the tools to capture these moments, deepen customer relationships, and stay ahead in an increasingly dynamic, intelligence-driven market.

“Social is no longer just where conversations happen—it’s where buying decisions are made, brand perceptions are shaped, and loyalty is earned.” said Josh Bean, Vice President of Product Marketing. “Our latest product releases don’t just keep pace with this shift; they empower brands to lead it. We’re equipping our customers with the intelligence and tools to transform social interactions into tangible business outcomes and shape the future of customer engagement.”
