I posted about Postiz, an open-source social media scheduling tool, around a month ago and received many requests from the community.

This is super motivational. Thank you so much for everything.

Just a recap:

This social media scheduling tool is similar to traditional ones: Buffer, Hootsuite, SproutSocial, etc.

Postiz supports:

Key features:

  • Schedule for nine social media platforms (Threads, Pinterest, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Dribbble, YouTube, Instagram.)
  • Fundamental analytics for almost all social media platforms.
  • AI Features: Copilots, AI Auto-complete, Canva-like editor.
  • Team support: Invite your team members to manage social media.

We had tons of new features and things people were waiting for. Thank you to everybody who contributed!

  • Generic Email Provider & Easier installation experience (drop the default Resend and add a nodemailer option!)
  • There are lots of improvements for the docker / docker-compose. It’s much easier to deploy everything!
  • Added Bluesky, Mastodon, Slack and Discord channels!
  • Add multiple options for upload files (locally / R2) - working on S3.
  • Improve the refresh token mechanism (even for more complicated ones like Facebook and Instagram)
  • Invite to a team has significant fixes but will be refactored.

What’s next:

  • Postiz is a company run by one person and contributors. Accessing all the support tickets (especially installation) is difficult, so I will focus all my efforts on making installation easier.
  • Productivity - many things feel bad when posting, like selecting multiple images and pasting images directly into the editor.
  • Basic SSO for the self-hosters, and more advanced ones like Azure AD and Okta for the enterprise.
  • Public API (unfortunately, I decided to make this feature paid; I need to make money somehow :/ )
  • Tagging brands on Instagram
  • Segmenting accounts into customers
  • Tagging people on multiple platforms
  • Tagging posts for easier searches
  • Auto-plug features, like automatic repost / retweet.
