What Is OpenPost?

OpenPost helps solo founders turn launches, product updates, lessons, and ideas into content, then publish it everywhere from one place. Start with one shared draft, then change the text, media, format, and settings for each connected account.

The managed app includes the complete publishing workflow, a 14-day trial, and clear limits for workspaces, accounts, posts, storage, and seats.

Who is this for?

OpenPost is for people who are building a company and also have to create its audience.

• Solo founders that need a repeatable content system without hiring a content team
• Creators and small brands that publish to several accounts
• Teams and agencies that need separate workspaces for brands or clients
• Developers that use the API, CLI, or MCP

How it works

1. Choose Post, Thread, Story, Short video, or Video.
2. Write the shared text and add media.
3. Select the social accounts.
4. Tailor and preview the version for each account.
5. Publish now or choose a time.
6. Check the result, errors, and retry options in the app.

OpenPost also has a media library, a still-image editor called OpenPost Image Editor, posting schedules, analytics, comments and replies, personal alerts, and inboxes for supported accounts.

If an AI tool helps, give it an OpenPost token instead of your social account keys. mcp:read is read-only. mcp:full can create, change, schedule, publish, reply, or moderate. Review the result before you allow a change. See Agent-Assisted Publishing.

Plans and deployment

Managed plans start at $15 per month and include a card-required 14-day trial. OpenPost shows the renewal price and date before you start. An active or trialing plan is required to connect social accounts, upload media, schedule, or publish.

Teams that need to operate their own infrastructure can also run the AGPL product on their server. The default setup uses one Go binary or container, SQLite, and local media storage. The operator manages TLS, backups, updates, social apps, and secrets.

What OpenPost supports

• Publishing: X, Mastodon, Bluesky, LinkedIn profiles and Organization Pages, Threads, Facebook Pages, Instagram Business and Creator accounts, TikTok, YouTube, and Discord webhooks
• Content types: posts, threads, Stories, short videos, and videos, based on each platform
• Results: account and post analytics when the platform grants access
• Replies: comments, replies, and moderation for supported platforms
• Inbox: opt-in message collection for X, Bluesky, Facebook Pages, Instagram, and Mastodon
• Workspaces: separate accounts, media, schedules, members, and tool access
• Tools: web app, HTTP API, CLI, and MCP

App review, account access, API limits, public media links, or a failed live test can still block an account or format. See Supported Platforms & Limitations.

What OpenPost is not

OpenPost does not include social listening, ad management, a CRM, or large-company benchmarks. Each social network gives different access to media, analytics, comments, and messages.

Current limitations:

• Video differs by platform. Formats, lengths, file sizes, and app review rules vary.
• Features differ by platform. OpenPost only shows actions that the connected account can use.
• Analytics keep each metric distinct. Views, impressions, and reach do not mean the same thing.
• There is no separate server approval step for every tool action. A person should review AI-made work before allowing it.
• Social networks can change their APIs. Their limits and review rules can affect publishing.

What it does not require

• Redis for scheduled jobs
• PostgreSQL for a small self-hosted setup
• The managed app when you prefer to self-host
• Several app services for the default install
