Charlotte Schmitt — Co-Founder
Before I built Octolens, I was Chief of Staff at crowd.dev, a developer community platform acquired by the Linux Foundation. My job was to understand what developers were saying about our product across Reddit, Hacker News, GitHub, and Twitter, without spending hours manually searching every day. There was no good tool for it. So I built one. Today, hundreds of leading devtool and AI companies — including Vercel, Railway, PostHog, Modal, Juicebox, and Prisma — use Octolens to monitor their brand across every platform their community lives on: Reddit, Hacker News, Twitter/X, Podcasts, News, LinkedIn, GitHub, YouTube, Stack Overflow. The companies that win today aren't just building great products. They're listening and interacting, fast. Try it free at octolens.com. Setup takes 2 minutes.
Stackforce AI infers this person is a SaaS expert with a strong focus on community engagement and product development.
