How far is the lamp from the wall?
About an arm’s length, angled up.
🔥🔥🔥
Would this work for a podcast?
Yes, just move the mic closer.
YouTube sometimes holds replies it thinks are spam. Alto checks after posting and tells you, instead of calling it sent.

Talk to the Alto team.
Alto brings comments from your videos and Shorts into your inbox, answers them in your voice with AI, works through the comments YouTube holds for review or flags as spam, and hides comments that match your moderation rules.
No. YouTube doesn’t let channels message viewers privately, so Alto answers in a public reply under the video. Its replies never ask viewers to DM you.
Yes. Drafts can wait in your inbox until you send or edit them. Once you trust Alto, let the replies it’s sure about post on their own, and the rest wait for you. Slack can let your team know when a draft is waiting.
You choose: only comments that need an answer, like questions, buying interest and complaints, or every comment, and you can skip the emoji and one-word ones. Comments YouTube holds for review wait for your approval first.
Yes. Comments on Shorts and regular videos arrive in the same inbox and get the same replies and moderation.
It disappears from your video, along with the replies under it. Automatic hiding only runs on channels where you’ve switched it on, and banning someone is always your call.
Yes. YouTube comments arrive in the same inbox as your Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and WhatsApp conversations, so your team can assign and answer them in one place, with the same knowledge and brand voice.
No. YouTube doesn’t share commenters’ contact details, so Alto keeps their comments in your inbox but doesn’t add them to your contacts or email lists.
Sign in with the Google account that owns your channel and pick the channel you want to connect. Alto reads your comments and video titles, posts the replies you approve and hides what breaks your rules. It only posts or hides on its own once you switch that on.
You can create a free Alto account, but adding a YouTube channel needs Pro or the one-time UNLIMITED package. AI replies and automatic moderation are part of Pro. With UNLIMITED, you reply and moderate by hand from the inbox.

It’s a dynamic mic on a $12 desk arm, about a hand’s width from my mouth. That does most of the work 🎙️
The answer comes from what you’ve taught it.
Alto replies in your voice from your website, notes, files and Shopify products, with the video’s title and thumbnail for context. Replies it isn’t sure about can wait for you as drafts.

It does! I filmed this one at night. Bounce the lamp off a white wall and keep it just out of frame.

Ordered the same arm after this, thank you!
