Ways teams use this

Made for designers, social managers and agencies who make their posts in Figma. Tick the frames to include, pick accounts or a saved channel set, and a live counter keeps the caption inside the strictest network you selected. Team approval, plan limits and X costs show in the panel before anything is sent.

Bulk upload a month of posts in one pass, then let the queue send them out at the times you set.
Write once and cross-post everywhere. One post, adapted per network, goes to every connected channel together.
Turn a blog or podcast RSS feed into automatic posts the moment a new item appears.
Read the numbers back. Impressions, engagement and link clicks come back the same way the posts went out.
