A free social media scheduler that doesn’t touch your pixels
Most free schedulers are marketing funnels with the quality dialed down — compressed video, capped features, sometimes a watermark on the content itself. Ours flips that: the free plan publishes in full original quality, 4K stays 4K, same as paid. The limits are volume and platform count — and one small line of text we're completely upfront about.
What $0 gets you
Included, free forever
- 2 platforms — your pick of our 8 (Instagram, Threads, TikTok, X, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Fanvue)
- 10 scheduled posts a month (up to 5 a day)
- Schedule up to 30 days ahead
- Full original video quality — no re-encode, ever
- Cloud publishing — posts fire with your computer off
- No card, no expiry; starts as a full 14-day trial of everything
The honest limits
- A small “scheduled with smartpoststudio.com” line on each post — removed on any paid plan
- AI Writing Studio not included (Studio plans, from $11/mo)
- MCP access not included (paid plans, from $8/mo)
- Web app only
The catch, stated plainly: the caption line is the business model. You get real scheduling for free; the footer is how the next person finds us. Any paid plan — from $8/mo flat for all 8 platforms — removes it immediately, including from posts you've already scheduled. No other catch: no watermark on your media, no compression, no card taken, no expiry date. How our free plan compares to the other free tiers →
Common questions
Do I need a credit card?
No. Sign up, get a full 14-day trial of everything (no card), and when it ends your account continues on the free plan automatically. Nothing dies, nothing charges.
Is the video quality really the same as paid?
Yes — identical pipeline. We don't run a degraded encoder for free accounts. Your export goes to each platform at the platform's own native limits. That's the part of the product we refuse to tier.
What happens when I outgrow 10 posts a month?
The Scheduler plan is $8/mo flat: all 8 platforms, unlimited scheduling, bring your own AI over MCP. Studio plans ($11–19/mo) add the built-in AI Writing Studio — 300 generations a month in 50+ languages. Full pricing →
How does this compare to Buffer's free plan?
Differently shaped: Buffer caps queue depth per channel, we cap monthly volume — and we don't compress your video. The honest side-by-side, including where Buffer's free plan genuinely wins: Buffer free vs our free →
