In their own words
PostNext
PostNext is a social media planning and publishing tool for composing drafts and scheduling posts across X, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Threads and Bluesky. Its visual calendar supports advance planning, moving posts between dates and best-time suggestions. Users can prepare videos, photos, text updates, image carousels and reels for scheduled or instant posting. AI tools generate captions, hashtags, ideas and images, and offer fact-checking; text and prompts are sent to OpenAI and Google Gemini for processing. Team workspaces support role-based access, draft review and shared content libraries, while brand profiles separate each brand's voice, assets and channel logins. Access is listed for web, Android, iOS, API and extension, including a Chrome extension for sharing pages, images or selected text into drafts. The free plan costs nothing and allows one connected account, one user and 10 scheduled posts per month. Premium costs $11 a month, billed €11 / month; Business costs $39 a month, billed €39 / month. Teams costs $4 a month, billed €4 / user / month, from €20 / month, with a five-seat minimum.
