Straightforward social scheduling
Schedule social posts from a Mac app, a terminal or an AI agent
Schedules and publishes posts and threads to X, Bluesky, Mastodon and LinkedIn, plus Reddit in a beta that works through its browser extension, from a Mac app (macOS 26 or later), a command-line tool or an AI agent such as Claude Code, Cursor or Codex over MCP. Each platform's limits are checked as you write. It is free on your own Mac or Linux computer with no account, but that computer has to be on at post time, and X and LinkedIn need your own developer apps. Statuz Cloud publishes while your computer sleeps and adds a shared queue, team roles and a web composer, with no developer apps to set up. Cloud has no subscription: prepaid credits from $5, good for six months, pay $0.01 a post, $0.03 on X and $0.30 for an X post with a link, and each seat past the owner's is $5 a month.
