TipsThe Octopus SDK adds a fully branded community to your app, backend and frontend included.
Four tasks for your team, all in your existing code. Octopus runs everything else. QA, code review and the store release follow your usual process.
“I found the integration very easy, it took me between half a day and one full day. The longest part was passing the authentication token, which is generated on the back end and doesn’t depend on Octopus SDK.”Jason BaracassaLead iOS developer, Bankin’Read the story →
“Incredibly smooth: just 10 min for the SSO on the backend, and only a few hours in total to get everything up and running.”Guillaume AdamCTO, RunMotion CoachRead the story →
“Straightforward to implement, it took us a few hours. The documentation covered everything we needed.”Antoine Le GuernCTO, OplaRead the story →
“Octopus gave us exactly what we needed, in just 1-day integration for iOS and Android combined.”Henri AlbertCPO, myLOOTRead the story →

Try it for free in a sandbox. Our engineers are one message away.
You talk directly to the engineers who build the SDK, on Slack or by email. No ticket queue, no middleman.
Your developers and ours, in the same thread.
Full support: your integration and your issues come first.
The channel stays open after launch: SDK updates, new features, production questions. Same people, same speed.
Designed from day one to stay out of your way: lightweight, stable and backward compatible. Integrate it once, then upgrade only when you want a new feature.
Every past SDK version stays compatible over time.
Optimized code, no heavy components and no bundled images.
Built by mobile engineers who have shipped apps and games for two decades.
AI reviews all content published by your audience. Edge cases go to human moderation experts at Octopus.
Regulated industries and multilingual feeds. Trusted by apps in enterprise, health, VPN and for young audiences.
Ambiguous content is reviewed by Octopus moderators.
Tighten tolerance at any time, no app release needed.
Every moderation decision and its reason, in your dashboard.
Pull everything your community produces into your own tools, and push content into it from your systems, through a REST API. No lock-in.
All posts, comments, replies, reactions, poll results and member profiles, as JSON. For your warehouse, your BI, your CRM or a GDPR request.
Show community posts next to a product, a lesson, a level or on your website.
Feed engagement signals into your CRM for segments and campaigns.
Create and schedule posts from your backend or CMS, for a product launch, a new lesson or a match result.
Features your team would otherwise spend months building and maintaining. All included in the SDK.
Managed by Octopus, with frequency rules so your users are never spammed.
Engagement, retention by cohort and sentiment, in your dashboard or your database.
Badges and levels, configured, not coded.
Every post readable in every member's language.
Video posts from your dashboard, hosted and streamed by Octopus.
Your colors, fonts and logo, and each feature switched on or off: polls, images, video, comments.
Monetize the community with sponsored native posts in the feed.
A read-only version of the community on your own domain, indexed by search engines.
Health, VPN and enterprise apps run Octopus with millions of users. Your data is hosted on AWS in the EU, in Paris with backups in Ireland. You decide how long it stays and who sees it.
You stay the data controller and Octopus acts as processor. Retention follows your policy, and an EU-only mode is available for regulated apps.
Identity stays with your SSO. Octopus stores no credentials and needs no email.
Role-based access for your team in the dashboard, TLS 1.3 in transit and encryption at rest.

More answers in the docs.
Yes. We give you a sandbox community and its API key, so your team can integrate and test in a dev build before anything reaches production.
Around 10 MB as an order of magnitude, but treat it as an estimate: the real impact depends on your platform, on the libraries your app already ships (shared dependencies are not counted twice), on your build settings and on the shrinking and app-thinning steps of your pipeline. The safest way to know is to measure it on your own build with the sandbox SDK.
No. We host and run the backend, moderation and push. SDK updates are optional: you upgrade when you want a new feature.
Yes. Run the community against a control group, with your own feature flag or our built-in holdout, and compare retention in your analytics.
The SDK emits events in the app, without a user ID. You forward them to Amplitude, Mixpanel or your warehouse with your own user ID, so they line up with the rest of your data.
Yes. Links in posts and comments come back to your app, custom schemes included. You can also attach a discussion to a product, a level or a lesson.
Yes. Your backend adds entitlements to the token it signs, and gated groups open only to the users who have them.
Data is hosted on AWS in the EU, in Paris, with backups in Ireland. Octopus is GDPR compliant and acts as your processor, under a DPA published online. For sensitive verticals such as health, we can run in EU-only mode.
