Question 1

What is TryPost and how is it different from Buffer or Hootsuite?

Accepted Answer

TryPost is a social media scheduler for creators, startups, and agencies. You get one calendar across all major networks, AI-assisted captions, an MCP server for AI agents, and team workflows, all in a clean dashboard. Unlike legacy tools that bolted features on year after year, TryPost was designed from scratch, with every feature included on a single per-workspace plan.

Question 2

Who is TryPost for?

Accepted Answer

Creators, startups, and agencies who post across multiple networks and want each brand, client, or project kept cleanly separated. A solo creator runs a single workspace, a startup runs one per brand, and an agency adds one per client, each with its own social set, all on the same per-workspace plan.

Question 3

How is TryPost priced?

Accepted Answer

One plan, charged per workspace: $12 per month or $120 per year. A workspace is one brand, client, or project, with one account per network (a social set). Every feature is included (calendar, AI, analytics, approvals, API, MCP) and team members are unlimited, with no per-seat fee. Add more workspaces as you grow.

Question 4

Is TryPost reliable for production posting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TryPost handles paying customer traffic today, with retries, queue isolation per workspace, and notifications when a publish fails. The same infrastructure serves a single brand and high-volume agencies alike. There is no second-class reliability tier.

Question 5

Is there a free option?

Accepted Answer

Every workspace starts with a 7-day free trial, no credit card required. You can try the whole product before you pay anything.

Question 6

How does pricing work?

Accepted Answer

One plan, charged per workspace: $12 per month or $120 per year. A workspace is one brand, client, or project, with one account per network (a social set). Every feature is included (calendar, AI, analytics, approvals, API, MCP) and team members are unlimited. You add a workspace for each brand or client you take on.

Question 7

Do you charge per social account or per post?

Accepted Answer

No, we charge per workspace (one per brand, client, or project). Each workspace holds one social set (one account per network), you can publish unlimited posts, and you can invite unlimited team members at no extra cost. Only AI generations draw from your credit pool.

Question 8

What happens if I run out of AI credits?

Accepted Answer

Manual scheduling keeps working as normal. Only AI features pause. Each workspace comes with 2,500 AI credits pooled across your account, so adding workspaces grows the shared pool. We notify you as the pool runs low and let you top up or add a workspace anytime. Credits reset monthly.

Question 9

Can I add or remove workspaces anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Add a workspace when you take on a brand or client, remove one when you don't need it, and we prorate the difference. There are no annual contracts, no penalties, and you can switch between monthly and yearly billing whenever you want.

Question 10

Which social networks does TryPost support?

Accepted Answer

Instagram (feed, reels, stories, carousels), Facebook (pages and groups), LinkedIn (personal profiles and company pages), X (Twitter), TikTok (video and photo carousels), YouTube (Shorts and full uploads), Pinterest, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon, Telegram, and Discord.

Question 11

How does TryPost connect to my accounts?

Accepted Answer

Always via OAuth, never with your password. You authorize TryPost from each network's official settings, and you can revoke access from there in one click. We only request the scopes needed to schedule and read your own posts.

Question 12

Can I connect multiple accounts on the same network?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each workspace holds one account per network (a social set), so to manage several Instagram, X, or LinkedIn accounts you add a workspace for each (one per brand, client, or project). Each account lives inside its own workspace, so contexts stay clean.

Question 13

What if a post fails to publish?

Accepted Answer

TryPost retries automatically with backoff. If retries are exhausted (e.g. an expired token), we notify you in-app and via email so you can fix the issue and re-queue. Failed posts never silently disappear.

Question 14

Do you support a network you haven't listed yet?

Accepted Answer

If a network has a public API, we likely have it on our roadmap. Email us to put it on our radar. Usage demand drives priority, so the networks our customers ask for most get built first.

Question 15

How does the calendar view work?

Accepted Answer

The calendar shows scheduled, drafted, and published posts across all your connected networks in one week or month view. You can drag posts between days to reschedule, filter by network or workspace, and see real-time presence: who else is editing the calendar right now.

Question 16

Can I schedule posts in different timezones?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each workspace has a default timezone, but you can override it per post for global audiences. The calendar shows times in your local zone and indicates when a post is scheduled relative to the audience's primary region.

Question 17

Can I edit a scheduled post before it publishes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Open the post from the calendar, edit the caption, swap media, change the time, or move it to a different network. Changes save immediately and the queue picks them up before publish time.

Question 18

Do you support recurring or evergreen posts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can mark a post as recurring (daily, weekly, monthly) or build an evergreen queue that auto-reposts top-performing content on a cadence you define. Both flows are surfaced in the calendar so nothing duplicates accidentally.

Question 19

Can I schedule carousels and stories?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Carousel posts (Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok) are uploaded as a multi-slide unit and scheduled like any other post. Stories are supported on Instagram and Facebook with the same drag-to-reschedule flow.

Question 20

What's the difference between a workspace and a team?

Accepted Answer

A workspace is a top-level container. It holds its own social accounts, calendar, brand kit, and members. Teams live inside a workspace and group members by function (writers, reviewers, viewers) with their own permissions. A solo creator uses a single workspace, a company uses one per brand, and an agency uses one per client.

Question 21

Does TryPost support post approval workflows?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Drafts can require one or more reviewers before they enter the schedule. Reviewers comment inline, request edits, or approve. There's also a public review link you can share with clients who don't have a TryPost seat.

Question 22

What roles can team members have?

Accepted Answer

Owner, admin, editor, contributor, and viewer. Owners and admins manage billing and team membership; editors and contributors can draft, schedule, and publish; viewers see the calendar without making changes. Roles are scoped per workspace.

Question 23

Can I see who's editing a post right now?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The calendar and post composer show real-time presence (avatars of everyone currently viewing or editing) so two people don't accidentally overwrite each other's work.

Question 24

What can TryPost's AI do?

Accepted Answer

Generate captions adapted to each network's voice and length, suggest hashtags, draft full carousels from a single prompt, and create or edit images via your brand kit. The output is editable, never locked. You stay the author.

Question 25

How do AI credits work?

Accepted Answer

Each workspace comes with 2,500 AI credits, pooled across your account, so more workspaces means a bigger shared pool. One credit covers one caption generation, image generation, or carousel slide. Manual scheduling is free and never counts against credits.

Question 26

What is the TryPost MCP server?

Accepted Answer

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI clients call tools on your behalf. TryPost exposes scheduling, drafting, calendar reads, and analytics as MCP tools, so an AI agent connected to your TryPost workspace can do real social media work without any custom integration.

Question 27

Which AI clients work with TryPost MCP?

Accepted Answer

Any MCP-compatible client. That includes Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, and any tool built on the MCP standard. One config file in the client and your agent has scheduling superpowers, bounded by per-tool permissions and a full audit log.

Question 28

How does TryPost protect my account credentials?

Accepted Answer

We never see or store your social network passwords. All connections are OAuth-based, with tokens encrypted at rest using AES-256. You can revoke TryPost's access from any network's settings at any time, and we honor the revocation immediately.

Question 29

Is TryPost GDPR-compliant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TryPost is built around GDPR requirements: lawful processing, data minimization, right to erasure, and audit trails at the contact level. EU customers can request a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) at any time, including on the free trial.

Question 30

Where is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

Your data runs in regional data centers with options for EU residency. Nothing is shared with third parties, and nothing leaves TryPost unless you connect external services.

Question 31

Can I delete my account and all my data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Delete your account from the dashboard at any time. Workspaces, scheduled posts, drafts, and analytics history are permanently removed and propagated through backups within 30 days.

Question 32

What support channels do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Email support on every workspace, including the free trial, with no priority tiers to buy. Agencies running multiple workspaces can request scheduled onboarding calls and a point of contact for ongoing help.

Question 33

What's the response time?

Accepted Answer

Most tickets are answered within 24 hours, often within a few hours. Critical incidents (publish failures, account access issues) get auto-escalated for every customer.

Question 34

Do you help with migrations from Buffer or Hootsuite?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We help teams migrating from another scheduler to map their existing posts, reconnect accounts, rebuild their calendar, and verify the first week of publishes side-by-side before fully cutting over.

Question 35

Is there a knowledge base?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Guides cover account setup, network connections, calendar workflows, AI features, MCP setup, and migration playbooks for the most common schedulers. Everything is free and searchable, no login required.
