MessageWatcher Social Media Compliance captures social posts, comments, and interactions for compliance archiving and monitoring. It tracks activity continuously to flag potential compliance risks in real time. Teams can search and review archived records, then export them for audits, investigations, or legal requests. Depending on platform support and configuration, records may include replies, direct messages, reactions, shared media, profile activity, timestamps, and metadata; some integrations may retain edits or deletions when that information is available. Role-based permissions, authentication controls, recorded user activity, and detailed activity reports support review and oversight. Listed networks are LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), and YouTube; WhatsApp may be available through an integration. Archiving capabilities depend on integrations, platform API access, and customer configuration. Retention is configurable, and legal hold and advanced search are available. Pricing includes a 30-day trial but no free plan. Monthly options include LinkedIn Personal at 10.00 USD per month, per account; social media archiving at 30.00 USD per month, per account; and X / Twitter at 50.00 USD per month, per account, as a separate service. Bundles start at 125.00 USD per month. MessageWatcher was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in Denver, Colorado.
