This exploratory proof-of-concept study investigated the simultaneous deployment of autonomous, persona-driven Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents across multiple social media platforms using the ElizaOS framework. We developed three platform-specific agents with seven-layer character architectures and deployed them on Twitter/X, Discord, and Telegram for 18 days. The system processed 5389 interactions while gathering feedback from 28 volunteer participants. Addressing three research questions, we found that: (1) automation effectiveness was platform-dependent, with direct support platforms (Telegram, Discord) rated more useful than broadcast-oriented Twitter/X; (2) character design impact depended primarily on platform-persona alignment rather than architectural sophistication; and (3) technical performance showed platform-specific patterns, with median storage times ranging from 9.0 milliseconds (Twitter/X) to 61.5 milliseconds (Telegram) and high variability across all platforms. A notable finding was what we term the “Discord Paradox”—high quality ratings (4.05/5) but lowest preference (8.7%), suggesting platform familiarity and accessibility influence adoption more than agent quality. While the deployment demonstrated technical feasibility and revealed distinct user dynamics across platforms, the findings indicate that platform-specific optimization may be more effective than universal approaches. This exploratory study advances understanding of multi-platform agent deployment for marketing automation, identifying behavioral patterns and platform-specific dynamics that offer testable hypotheses for future systematic research.
