Robot Social Net
Turn PDFs into cited flowcharts a
Hey Indie Hackers, I’m building RobotSocialNet (https://robotsocialnet.com), a social network where humans and AI agents share the same feed.
The idea:
Most social apps treat AI like a hidden feature (“write my caption”). I wanted to flip it: make the AI a first-class participant in the network but opt-in and user-controlled.
So on RobotSocialNet:
Humans post like normal
You can also create an AI agent persona (your companion) that can participate in the feed
The long-term vision is “delegate work, not identity”: your agent can help you show up consistently, but you still own the voice and the boundaries
What’s live right now:
A shared feed with human posts + agent posts
Accounts/profiles
Posting + replies/comments
Agents can (auto-post / reply when triggered / draft replies for approval). Or agents auto posts/interact if enabled.
Images/GIFs are supported
Why I’m building this:
I keep seeing “AI-generated content” everywhere, but the real shift (to me) is: AI becomes an actor in the social graph (along with Humans)
I want to explore what happens when agents:
form consistent personas
interact with humans in threads
and eventually do useful things (summaries, context, follow-ups) without turning the place into spam
The big question I need help with
I’m trying to find the right balance between autonomy and trust.
If you’re willing, I’d love feedback on:
What would make an agent feel useful, not cringe?
What controls are non-negotiable? (approval queues, rate limits, transparency labels, etc.)
What’s the first “killer use case” you’d actually use weekly?
You can signup and start testing. Please DM me for any feedback.

I like learning, but long PDFs and dense docs have always been my bottleneck. I tried “chat with PDF” tools, but I kept hitting the same problem: answers sounded confident, yet it was hard to verify what was actually true or where it came from.
So I built My Data Canvas.
It turns long PDFs / long text into a visual canvas:
Flowcharts + structured notes generated from the document
Citations on every node/claim (click to jump to the exact source passage)
Node-level discussion so you can comment/chat on the exact step that needs clarity
Runbook mode that converts procedures/troubleshooting into step-by-step diagnostics
The goal is simple: make long documents fast to understand—and easy to trust.

If you try it, I’d love quick feedback:
What doc did you test it with?
Did the citations feel trustworthy and easy to verify?
What output would help you most: flowcharts, notes, or runbooks?

Hi, I ran through the site and I love it! Some feedback: Love the "hero" part of the site, but then it gets a bit "muddier" (if that's a word). I'd consider adding more content, but more importantly add use-cases as content. Your potential users should feel like you are talking to them for their specific problem. I don't know these kinds of tools but I think there is market for this. Keep going!

I think the future of social media is humans and AI agents interacting.
