The Buffer and Hootsuite alternative that lives on your server. We install it, connect every account, brand it, and hand you the login. Then you stop paying $20–$249 a month to schedule posts.
You're paying a subscription to post a caption at 9am. Here's the annual rent — and what it costs to own the tool instead.
| Scheduler | The catch | Per month | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hootsuite | Plans climb fast per seat | $99 | $1,188 |
| Sprout Social | Priced for agencies | $249 | $2,988 |
| Later | Post limits, per-channel fees | $25 | $300 |
| Buffer | Price per channel, per month | $18 | $216 |
| Metricool / Publer | Cheaper, still a subscription | $22 | $264 |
| Typical bill | One of the above | $18–249 | $216–2,988 |
List prices at time of writing; annual = monthly × 12. Your plan may differ.
This is not a link to a GitHub repo and good luck. We stand it up, wire the OAuth, and prove it posts.
Full Postiz deployment (app, database, worker, media proxy) behind SSL on your own domain. You own the box, the data and the cost.
X, Instagram, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Threads, Pinterest, Bluesky, Telegram, Mastodon — OAuth handled, tokens refreshed, posting verified with a real test post.
We import your content plan (or build one from your existing posts) so the calendar isn't empty on day one.
Your logo, colors and domain. It looks like software you built, because functionally, you did.
Postiz generates and edits captions from your prompt or link — so you're writing hooks, not formatting posts.
Engagement and reach reporting across connected channels, with the raw data sitting in your database — not someone's SaaS.
Postiz handles when it posts. The Social Media Stack Creator ($197) handles what gets posted — the studio, the 12-platform renders, the voice and text overlays.
A small VPS is ideal (we'll recommend one, usually $5–12/month). If you'd rather not run a server, we can host it for you — ask us.
Postiz is open-source software using each platform's official APIs and OAuth — the same mechanism the paid schedulers use.
Nothing. It's your server and your install. There's no subscription to cancel and nothing to cut off.
Yes — unlimited team members, no per-seat pricing. That's the whole point.
X, LinkedIn, YouTube, Meta and more connect through official apps. We'll tell you upfront if a specific account needs extra setup.
We install Postiz, connect your accounts, and prove it posts — in 48 hours.
