Post Bridge?

KINDAYou can build the valuable core, but the established product has meaningful operational complexity. Pick one narrow promise for v1.

BUILD FIRST

One specific customer type and one primary use case
A vertical slice that completes the main job without manual workarounds
Visible limits, review steps, and a fallback when an external dependency fails

LEAVE FOR LATER

Broad third-party integrations
High-scale collaboration, syncing, and permissions
Automation that can cause harm without human review

RESEARCH NOTES

What this tool actually does.

Checked 2026-09-06

Post Bridge (post-bridge.com) is a lightweight social media scheduling tool for creators and small teams, built by founder Jack after finding Buffer/Hootsuite too costly ($150-300/mo) and complex. It connects accounts via official OAuth (no passwords stored) and publishes one post to multiple platforms in ~30 seconds. Supports X/Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, Threads, Pinterest, and Google Business. Features: instant multi-platform posting, scheduling up to 2 months ahead, per-platform caption/media customization, a content calendar of scheduled/published posts, a basic drag-and-drop video template editor, and cross-posting of content uploaded directly (no reposting external content). Plans: Starter (5 accounts), Creator (15), Pro (unlimited); 100 uploads/hour rate limit; no team mode yet. Paid API add-on ($5/mo) plus an open-source 'Agent Mode' CLI/MCP

Build a replacement for Post Bridge, a lightweight multi-platform social media scheduler for solo creators and small teams. Core workflow: user connects social accounts via OAuth (X, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, Threads, Pinterest), composes one post (text, image, video, carousel) with per-platform caption overrides, optionally schedules it up to ~2 months ahead, and publishes to all selected accounts in one action; a content calendar shows scheduled/published posts with edit/delete; a simple template-based video editor produces short clips; a paid API add-on plus a CLI/MCP 'agent mode' lets AI assistants post, schedule, upload media, and fetch basic analytics. User-facing requirements: account connection manager with revoke, per-platform customization (e.g., TikTok draft mode, YouTube titles, Pinterest boards), queue slots, post history, and plan-based account limits (5/15/unlimited). Technical requirements: OAuth2 flows per platform, a job queue with retries for scheduled publishing, media transcoding/normalization, analytics via polling or webhooks, a REST API with API keys, and a CLI wrapping that API. Implementation approach: Node.js or Python backend with Postgres plus a Redis-backed job queue, a React dashboard, and a documented REST API; use official platform APIs only. Do not copy Post Bridge's brand, logo, copy, or UI; build an original interface. Out of scope: team collaboration, bulk/enterprise features, white-labeling, reposting content from external sources, and native mobile apps. Include a README covering setup (env vars, OAuth app registration per platform), architecture, and important limitations (rate limits, platform API constraints, no reach guarantees).
