What's the demand and the competition? I'd reckon that people can generate garbage ("content") easily enough on their own with LLMs.
As for AI startups generally: please get rid of Google/Facebook/etc. login mandates, and, preferably, get rid of mandatory registrations altogether for demo purposes. I don't know whether there are any reliable statistics on this matter, but I'd argue that the presumed retention due to mandating registrations may prevent a larger user base from emerging.
Conntent reduces a step or two in generating content. I felt a need for this product for myself so I made it.

Yea, but why. Who is your user, and why is that something they want?
Is it businesses? Is it individuals posting for their friends?
I run a STEM page on LinkedIn & X. I have to post something STEM-related daily on them for which I search Google News for an article, open it, copy its content, and then ask ChatGPT to write an engaging LinkedIn post or Tweet for me out of it.
So I made a tool to make this task a bit simpler. I used conntent to generate my weekly newsletter yesterday. You can read it here: https://stemble.substack.com/p/indian-astronauts-embark-on-a...
To answer your question, people like me are the users.

But going back to the question in your post, I suspect the reason you aren't getting paying customers is that people/companies who are reposting content across social media already have established patterns to do it and there's not a value add of switching that to your service.
