Multi-Platform Post Scheduler
r/smallbusiness: 'Managing multiple social media accounts isn't hard. It's just… exhausting. Coming up with ideas, writing c…'
Coverage
We searched 2 places where competitors live — transparent about what we covered and what we missed.
Should you build this?
- You can integrate 5+ platform APIs (TikTok is the hard one) + proxy rotation
- You're OK with low ARPU ($5/mo) and need scale
- You can stay below Hootsuite/Buffer pricing while matching feature breadth
- Hootsuite, Buffer, Later, Metricool all compete heavily
- TikTok API access is restricted — may need scrape workarounds (ban risk)
- Single founder in signal#3 building same thing — competition from inception
- This weekend: Reply to r/automation OP (signal#1) with a ban-safe approach + free trial. Track signup conversion · cite signal#1
- Next 7 days: Post in r/digitalmarketing thread (signal#2) with side-by-side pricing vs Hootsuite/Buffer. Measure clicks · cite signal#2
- 50+ paid: If 50+ paid in 14 days, ship the agency tier

I want to build a tool for: Solo creators managing 30+ social accounts asking how to automate posts safely (signal#1, 15 upvotes); marketers asking for multi-account scheduling (signal#2, 17 upvotes); founders explicitly validating 'cross-posting tools are too expensive' as micro-SaaS thesis (signal#3) The pain users describe: Tools for scheduling posts across multiple social media accounts? Timing / why now: Validate first — Hootsuite/Buffer pricing complaints converging with rise of solo creators · founder in signal#3 explicitly says 'existing tools too expensive' — competitive opening Existing alternatives: Mirr, Make, n8n Help me draft an MVP technical plan: 1. Core user flow (happy path, 3-5 steps) 2. Data model (main tables and their key fields) 3. Tech stack recommendation (favor fast-to-ship options) 4. First 3 things to build this weekend 5. What NOT to build in v1 (scope discipline) Context source: gapmine.com/opportunities/2026-04-24/social-media-cross-posting-automation
