Socialocca invites beta testers to try its apps early and help shape them, for free
No install and no technical background needed: use the tools, try new features, and send feedback.
SCRANTON, Pa., Nov. 4, 2026
Socialocca today invited creators, small business owners, and curious people to join the Socialocca Beta program and try its apps and features before anyone else.
Software built only by its makers tends to work for its makers. Socialocca wants its tools to work for the people they're meant for, so it is asking those people to try them early and say what's confusing, broken, or missing.
"The best feedback I get is from someone using an app for the first time," said Ryan K. Hertel, founder of Socialocca. "Beta testers make every one of these tools better for the next person."
What testers get
- Early access to new Socialocca apps and upcoming tools
- A direct say in design, features, and performance
- Updates on what the studio is building
- Priority consideration for future invite-only programs
- It's free
How it works
- Explore the tools at apps.socialocca.io
- Test features and new releases
- Share feedback and bug reports
No install is needed, and testers don't need a technical background.
Why it matters
Feedback helps make features clearer, catches bugs and slowdowns, guides design decisions, and helps decide what gets built next.
Availability
Anyone can join for free at socialocca.com/beta.
