In short

Octapost is a social media scheduling tool for small businesses and agencies. You write a post once, tailor it for each network and schedule it to Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Reddit, Google Business Profile, Slack and Discord. A drag and drop calendar, best time suggestions from your own engagement and a built in image editor are included on every plan, from $14 a month.

Scheduling that fits how you actually post

One post, a version per network

Write once, then adjust the caption, media and settings for each network, such as a YouTube title, TikTok visibility or a Pinterest board.

A calendar you can drag

See the month or the week at a glance, drag a post to another day to reschedule it, and drop drafts straight onto a free slot.

Post when your audience is online

Octapost suggests the best times to post from your own engagement data, so picking a slot takes one click.

Every format from one composer

Feed posts, carousels, videos, reels, Instagram stories, YouTube Shorts and Google Business updates.

How it works

  2. Write and design

Frequently asked questions

What is social media scheduling?

It means preparing posts ahead of time and letting a tool publish them at the date and time you choose. In Octapost you write a post once, adjust it for each network and place it on a shared calendar.

Which networks can I schedule to?

Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Reddit, Google Business Profile, Slack and Discord. Slack and Discord work as publishing targets for your team or community.

Can I schedule Instagram reels and stories?

Yes. Instagram feed posts, carousels, reels and stories can all be scheduled, as well as Facebook reels, TikTok videos and photo carousels, and YouTube Shorts.

Can I move a post after scheduling it?

Yes. Drag it to another day in the week view, or open it, make your changes and pick a new time. Editing is available until two minutes before the post goes out.

Which timezone are posts scheduled in?

Each organization has its own timezone, so a client in Lisbon and a client in New York are each scheduled in local time. Team members can also set a personal display timezone.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $14 a month for 6 social accounts, with unlimited organizations and scheduling to every network included. Starter comes with a 14 day free trial and no credit card.
