​

Dashboard Overview

When you log in to mysoku.io, you land on the Dashboard — your home screen. The left sidebar stays visible on every page and gives you access to all sections of the app. The sidebar is collapsible on smaller screens. Here is a summary of every section:

​

Dashboard (Home)

The Dashboard is the first page you see after logging in. It gives you a high-level view of your account activity. What you will find here:

• Key Metrics — Engagement rate, total engagement, and average views per post across all platforms.
• Growth Trends — Sparkline charts showing views, likes, comments, and shares over a configurable time range. Use the time range buttons to switch between 1 week, 2 weeks, 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, and 1 year. Growth percentages update automatically to compare the newest data against the oldest data in your selected range.
• Platform Ranking — See which of your connected platforms are performing best. Each platform shows its share of your total metrics as a percentage. Use the metric toggle tabs to rank platforms by different metrics (see below).
• Top Performing Posts — Click any platform card in the Platform Ranking section to drill into a detail view showing your top 5 posts ranked by views, engagement rate, and saves.
• Platform Breakdown — Per-platform stat cards showing views, likes, comments, shares, and saves.
• Onboarding stepper — If you are new to Soku, a guided stepper walks you through: Welcome → Connect social accounts → Enable reposting. This appears until you complete the initial setup.
• Quick actions — Shortcuts to common tasks like creating a post or connecting a new platform.

​

Platform Ranking

The Platform Ranking section ranks your connected platforms from best to worst performing. Each platform is shown with a progress bar and a numeric value. You can toggle between five metrics using the tabs at the top of the section: All percentages across your connected platforms add up to 100%, so you can see at a glance how much each platform contributes to your overall numbers. When you switch tabs, platforms re-sort so the platform with the largest share for that metric appears at the top. The progress bars and values animate to reflect the new ranking.

Posts

The Posts section shows everything you have published or scheduled. It is divided into three views, accessible via tabs:

​

Published

A chronological list of all posts you have published, with a graph showing your posting trends over time. For each post, you can see:

​

Scheduled

A list of posts that are queued for future publishing. From here you can:

Automations

The Automations section is where you configure workflows that run without manual intervention, using a visual node-based editor powered by React Flow. What you can set up here:

The workflow editor includes:

• A toolbar with save, zoom, and layout controls.
• A canvas showing the flow from source → templates → destinations.
• A template palette for selecting which templates to apply.
• Canvas statistics showing workflow configuration.

When creating a post, you can pull media directly from the Library instead of uploading a new file each time.
