Built a social platform with Continue?
We'll make it production-ready.
Social platforms are uniquely complex because your users create the content, interact with each other, and expect real-time responsiveness. AI tools can build feeds, profiles, and posting features, but the hard problems — content moderation, abuse prevention, notification systems, and handling viral growth — require careful engineering that AI tools don't provide.
Social Platform challenges in Continue apps
Building a social platform with Continue is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
Content moderation and safety
Users will post spam, harassment, illegal content, and misinformation. You need automated content filtering, user reporting flows, admin moderation tools, and clear community guidelines enforcement. Launching without moderation is a legal and reputational risk.
Feed algorithm and performance
A chronological feed is simple but doesn't scale — loading thousands of posts to sort them on every request kills performance. AI tools build basic feeds that work with 50 posts but crawl with 50,000. You need pagination, caching, and potentially a ranking algorithm.
User-generated content storage
Images, videos, and files uploaded by users need proper storage — CDN delivery, format optimization, size limits, and malware scanning. AI tools implement basic file upload but skip content delivery optimization and security scanning.
Notification system
Likes, comments, follows, mentions, and messages all generate notifications across multiple channels — in-app, push, and email. Building a notification system that's timely without being spammy, and that handles user preferences, is a complex infrastructure challenge.
Privacy and blocking
Users need to control who sees their content, block other users, and manage their privacy settings. AI tools build public-by-default profiles without the privacy controls users expect and regulations require.
Abuse prevention
Fake accounts, bots, spam rings, and coordinated harassment are inevitable on any social platform. You need rate limiting on actions (follows, messages, posts), bot detection, and account verification to protect your legitimate users.
What we check in your Continue social platform
Common Continue issues we fix
Beyond social platform-specific issues, these are Continue patterns we commonly fix.
Model-dependent security quality
Security of generated code varies dramatically based on which LLM is connected. Some models produce much less secure code than others.
Inconsistent code patterns between models
Switching between models mid-project produces inconsistent patterns, naming conventions, and error handling approaches in the same codebase.
Context window limitations causing bugs
When the codebase exceeds the model's context window, Continue loses awareness of existing patterns and introduces contradictory code.
Missing performance best practices
Generated code often uses naive algorithms and data structures. Database queries, API calls, and data processing lack optimization.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a social platform with Continue?
Continue is a great starting point for a social platform. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but social platforms have specific requirements — content moderation and safety and feed algorithm and performance — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Continue leave in social platforms?
Common issues include: model-dependent security quality, inconsistent code patterns between models, context window limitations causing bugs. For a social platform specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for content moderation and safety.
How do I make my Continue social platform production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Continue-built social platforms, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a Continue-built social platform?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger social platform projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
