SchedPilot
SchedPilot is a social media scheduler that AI agents can drive through an MCP server and a REST API. It publishes to nine networks from a single calendar, where every post waits for human approval before it goes live.
What is SchedPilot?
SchedPilot is a social media scheduling and management platform whose claimed distinguishing feature is that AI agents can drive it. The home page promises that Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Hermes and OpenClaw draft and schedule your posts through our API and MCP server — you approve everything in one calendar, and the product is built around that approval step: nothing an agent writes goes out until a human clicks.
There are two front doors. One is a conventional scheduler, with a unified drag-and-drop calendar covering Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest, Threads and Bluesky — nine networks on the home page, ten on the API page, which adds Reddit. The other is the agentic route: a REST API based at api.schedpilot.com/developers/v1/ and six tools exposed to an agent over MCP — get_accounts, list_posts, create_post, upload_media, delete_post and get_analytics — installed through an npx -y schedpilot-mcp entry carrying a SCHEDPILOT_TOKEN. The API is written for production use: idempotency keys for retries, post.published, post.failed and post.engaged webhooks, X-RateLimit headers, and a JSON response identical whatever the destination platform. Platform OAuth is handled by SchedPilot, so no developer app has to be registered with Meta, LinkedIn or X.
Around that core sits a dashboard with client workspaces, roles and approval workflows, analytics and exportable client reports, a Chrome extension, and a built-in video editor for short vertical clips — trimming, aspect ratio, subtitles, text overlays and exports sized for Reels, TikTok, Shorts and X. The AI layer covers post suggestions, generated posts, "AI Hooks" and GPT-5 credits allocated by tier (300, 5,100 or 10,000). A set of free side tools — Instagram username generator, YouTube revenue calculator, best-time-to-post calculator, X shadow ban checker — feeds the site with traffic.
It remains a young and small product. The domain was registered in April 2025, the Chrome extension shipped in July 2025, and the home page claims 210+ active users and 3,981 posts published last month — figures that shift from page to page. The vendor positions itself openly on price against Buffer, Hootsuite, Ayrshare and Postiz.

When to use SchedPilot / When not to
A quick filter to help you decide if SchedPilot is the right fit.
When to use SchedPilot
- Agencies running several clients at once, who need per-client workspaces, roles, an approval workflow and branded reports
- Creators, influencers and clippers who plan a week of content in one session and republish long videos as short vertical clips
- Developers building their own publishing feature on a single REST API, with platform OAuth already handled for them
- Teams that hand drafting and scheduling to an LLM agent such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or OpenClaw over MCP
- Startup founders running their own social presence without a social media team behind them
When not to use SchedPilot
- Anyone hoping for a permanently free tool: the pricing grid shows four paid tiers only, and the pricing FAQ asks for a credit card at sign-up
- Buyers with a compliance checklist: the GDPR is never mentioned, no DPA is offered, no sub-processor list exists, and no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification is claimed
- Organisations that need a legally identified vendor: the terms and conditions still carry template placeholders where the governing law and the business address should be
- Mobile-first users: there is no iOS or Android app, only the web app and a Chrome extension
- Teams that require a contractual SLA or a reversibility commitment, which are negotiated only from the Enterprise tier or a custom quote
How to use SchedPilot
A typical end-to-end flow, from setup to results.
- Create an account and connect your profiles through the platforms' official APIs: everything goes through OAuth, no password is ever handed over
- Run the guided onboarding at app.schedpilot.com/onboarding-flow
- Working by hand: compose in the dashboard editor, add images, carousels or an X thread, and preview the result network by network
- Working with an agent: create an API key in app.schedpilot.com/api-access — it carries the smm_ prefix and its value is shown only once
- Point Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or OpenClaw at the MCP server, declared through an npx -y schedpilot-mcp entry with a SCHEDPILOT_TOKEN environment variable
- Or call the REST API directly: GET /accounts to retrieve the ids of the connected accounts, then POST /post to queue content
- For automation platforms, drop the community n8n node into a workflow and authenticate with the API key; Make.com and Zapier go through their generic HTTP modules
- Review whatever the agent produced in the shared calendar: edit it, move it in time, or leave it as it is
- Approve the post with one click — publication then fires automatically at the scheduled time
- Follow reach, impressions, clicks and follower growth in the analytics, then export the client report
Pros & Cons
Pros
- API access and MCP server listed from the entry tier on the pricing grid, where Hootsuite reserves its API for enterprise and Buffer charges per channel
- Entry price of USD 21 per month billed annually, USD 29 monthly, against USD 49 for Ayrshare and USD 99 for Hootsuite in the vendor's own comparison table
- Platform OAuth handled by SchedPilot across the ten networks: no developer app to register with Meta, LinkedIn or X, and no per-network integration to maintain
- A human approval step before any publication, including posts written by an agent
- An API built for production: idempotency keys, post.published, post.failed and post.engaged webhooks, rate-limit headers, and public, readable documentation on docs.schedpilot.com
- Unlimited posts from the Gold tier, and a built-in UGC video editor that removes the need for a separate editing subscription
- The comparison table is published by the vendor itself and concedes real advantages to competitors, noting that Ayrshare covers more platforms and that Postiz is open-source and free to self-host
Cons
- The terms and conditions are an unfinished template: the governing law reads "[Your Country/State]" and the address "[Your Business Address]", so no jurisdiction is designated and the publisher is not contractually identified
- No legal identity is published anywhere: no legal notice, no full company name, no postal address, and two competing contact addresses depending on the page, admin@schedpilot.com and support@schedpilot.com
- Zero mention of the GDPR, no DPA, no sub-processor list, no Article 27 representative, and no security certification such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001 claimed
- No indication of the country where data is hosted
- The site contradicts itself and never settles the matter: nine networks on the home page against ten on the API page; "API access is included on our Platinum plan" in the home FAQ against API Access listed from the Silver tier; "no card required" on the white-label page against "yes, but the card won't be charged" in the pricing FAQ; "unlimited client accounts" against caps of 5, 20, 40 and 100; an MCP server presented as "our MCP server" on the home page but as community wrappers with a native server "shipping soon" on the API page
- Refund rules conflict: the terms state that subscription fees are billed in advance and non-refundable unless otherwise specified in writing, while the pricing page promises a 7-day guarantee and a pro-rata refund on annual plans
- No mobile application, account deletion by email only with no self-service route, and modest usage figures that do not match from one page to the next (210+, 200+, 204+)
Pricing & Plans
No free plan appears on the pricing grid: the four tiers are all paid, billed in USD with VAT handled at checkout. The lowest entry point is USD 21 per month on the annual Silver plan (USD 252 a year), or USD 29 per month billed monthly. Gold costs USD 35 per month annually and USD 39 monthly, Platinum USD 49 and USD 59, Enterprise USD 79 and USD 99, annual billing being advertised at 20% off. A one-time Lifetime licence gives the Gold tier for USD 299, capped at 100 licences, 53 of which were still available at the time of review. Every tier opens with a 7-day trial charged at USD 0, although the pricing FAQ requires a credit card at sign-up while the white-label page states the opposite. Payment runs through Stripe with Visa, Mastercard and Amex. A 7-day money-back guarantee is advertised from the Gold tier upward, and cancelling an annual plan refunds the unused months pro rata — the terms, however, declare subscription fees non-refundable unless otherwise specified in writing. Beyond 100 connected accounts, pricing is quoted on request through the contact form.

Data, GDPR & hosting
A consolidated view of how SchedPilot handles your data.
GDPR overview
The word GDPR appears nowhere on the site: zero occurrences across twenty stored files, text and HTML alike. There is no Article 27 representative, no named data protection officer, no DPA published or offered, no sub-processor list, no stated legal basis for processing and no mention of international transfers or standard contractual clauses. What the privacy policy does offer in practice comes close to the underlying rights: you can request an exported file of the personal data held about you, and request its erasure, by writing to support@schedpilot.com. Account deletion, by contrast, happens only by email to admin@schedpilot.com, with no self-service route. The Chrome Web Store listing for the publisher's own extension places the operation in Romania, which would put it squarely inside the GDPR's scope — yet the site never says so.
Who owns the data?
The privacy policy, effective 6 March 2026, states that users can see, edit or delete their personal information at any time, the username excepted, and that website administrators can also see and edit that information. Personal data can be exported on request, and erased on request except for records kept for administrative, legal or security reasons. On the content you publish, the terms say nothing at all: they claim SchedPilot's own text, graphics, logos and software as the company's intellectual property, but never assign, licence or restrict the posts, images and videos you push through the platform. Raw YouTube video files are not stored — the app calls the API in real time.
Reuse rights
Google and YouTube data is accessed through OAuth 2.0 with explicit consent — email, first and last name, profile picture, video list and channel metadata — and is used only to authenticate the account, display videos in the interface and schedule or manage YouTube content. The publisher commits to no advertising use, no third-party analytics and no user profiling on that data, and states that it does not share, sell, transfer or disclose it to third parties beyond what YouTube needs to carry out the action you requested. Data reaches the social platforms only when you authorise a connection or schedule a post. Elsewhere, site comments collect your IP address and user agent for spam detection, a hashed email may go to Gravatar (Automattic), your IP is included in password-reset emails, and GPS EXIF metadata in uploaded media may be processed and can then be exploited by the destination platforms. Nothing on the site addresses model training on customer data, in either direction. Since the terms never claim ownership of what you publish, nothing described there stops you from reusing your own captions, images and videos wherever you like, and no permission mechanism is set out.
Data retention & training
Hosting summary
The site declares no hosting country and no hosting region, and claims no certification — neither SOC 2, ISO 27001 nor HIPAA. What it does describe are technical measures: HTTPS on all transfers, OAuth 2.0 for platform connections, access tokens encrypted with AES-256, role-based access controls limiting internal access to sensitive data, and regular security audits and infrastructure reviews. The platforms' OAuth tokens are held server-side and encrypted, and the publisher states that agents never see platform credentials. Webhook payloads are signed, and IP allow-listing is offered as an option on paid plans. One element does not come from the publisher: the domain's IP address, 92.113.16.213, resolves to Frankfurt, Germany, on the network of Hostinger International Limited. That is a network observation rather than a declaration, and it tells you where the site answers from, not necessarily where customer data, tokens and media are stored. Anyone who needs a documented jurisdiction for their data will have to ask, because nothing on the site answers the question.
Things to keep in mind
Risks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting SchedPilot.
- The terms and conditions are an unfinished template — the governing law is still "[Your Country/State]" and the address "[Your Business Address]" — so no jurisdiction is designated and you would have no contractually identified counterparty in a dispute
- No company name and no postal address appear anywhere on the site; the only identity trail is the Chrome Web Store listing for the publisher's own extension, which names Sitemile in Chitila, Ilfov, Romania, and the LinkedIn account linked from the footer still points to linkedin.com/company/postcraftai/, an earlier brand name
- The GDPR is never mentioned even though the publisher appears to be established in the EU, and no DPA, sub-processor list or Article 27 representative exists
- The tool holds the OAuth tokens that let it publish in your name on your social accounts, while publishing no security certification, no hosting country and no legal identity — that combination deserves a deliberate decision rather than a click-through
- The one-click approval step only protects you if you actually read what you approve: handing drafting to an agent can flatten your own voice and quietly erode the habit of checking what goes out under your name
- Rules contradict each other from page to page and are never arbitrated — refunds, whether the trial needs a card, account caps, the number of networks, the real status of the MCP server — so verify the point that matters to you in writing before paying
- The "GPT-5 credits" sold by the hundred or the thousand come with no stated model provider and no definition of what one credit consumes; no hosting location is disclosed while DNS resolution points to Hostinger in Frankfurt; and the usage figures shift between pages (210+, 200+, 204+)
Setup & Integrations
Technical difficulty
Low for ordinary use: sign up, connect each profile through OAuth and start scheduling. No technical skill is needed, and there is no developer app to register with Meta, LinkedIn, X or the other platforms. Moderate for agent or API use: create an API key in app.schedpilot.com/api-access, then either point an MCP client at the server through an npx -y schedpilot-mcp entry with a token environment variable, or call the REST API directly. A ready-made community n8n node covers automation, while Make.com and Zapier go through a generic HTTP module. The public documentation carries curl, Python and Node.js examples.

Should you pick SchedPilot?
SchedPilot is young — the domain dates from April 2025 — but functionally dense for what it costs. Its real differentiator is not the calendar but the fact that the REST API and the MCP server are advertised from the entry tier, where Hootsuite reserves its API for enterprise contracts and Buffer bills by channel. At USD 21 a month billed annually, with platform OAuth handled for you and a human approval step standing between an agent and your audience, the offer holds together for anyone who wants to automate publishing cheaply.
The reservation is serious, and it is not about features. The legal apparatus is unfinished: the terms and conditions still carry template placeholders where the governing law and the business address should be, so no jurisdiction is designated and the publisher is not contractually identified. No legal notice, no company name and no postal address appear anywhere on the site, and the GDPR is never mentioned — even though the only identity trail, the Chrome Web Store listing for the vendor's own extension, places the publisher in Romania. Nothing is said about where data is hosted and no security certification is claimed, for a tool that holds the tokens allowing it to publish in your name.
Several statements also contradict each other from one page to the next, and none is ever settled: nine networks or ten, a card required for the trial or not, account caps or "unlimited client accounts", subscriptions non-refundable or covered by a 7-day guarantee, an MCP server that is either theirs or a set of community wrappers with a native version shipping soon. The tool suits people who want cheap publishing automation and accept the risk of a thinly documented vendor; buyers with a compliance checklist should put their questions in writing first.
