Who Postpone is for

  • Fits if you want an inbox and approvals on a mid-priced plan
  • Works for a small team of 2 users on Creator

Who it is not for

  • Tight if you stay free, as 5 scheduled posts a month is all you get
  • Skip it if you tweet a lot, as Starter allows 100 a month
  • Not for you if you need the inbox or approvals on Starter
  • Watch out: extra accounts cost $6 each a month, and yearly plan changes go through support

Good to know

Good for

  • Creators who post to Reddit, Bluesky, Mastodon and Tumblr as well as the big networks
  • Agencies that want unlimited team members on higher plans
  • Developers who want an API for scheduling

Worth knowing

  • Tweets are counted separately from other posts and capped by plan, from 100 a month on Starter.
  • Extra social accounts cost $6 each a month on top of the plan's account limit.
  • The unified inbox, approvals and bulk import are not on Starter.
  • Plan changes on yearly billing go through support rather than the app.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

To replace Postpone you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

It costs $192 a year.

What you could make

  • Calendar and reports: an app builder makes these well.

What you could not

  • Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
  • AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
  • What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.

What this rests on. Postpone’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
