Ampli

Your agentic social media scheduler: plan and publish to every channel from one calendar, or let your AI agent schedule for you.

Ampli is your agentic social media scheduler built for creators and small teams. Schedule and publish to TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Threads, Facebook, YouTube and X, from one calendar and queue. Write once and tailor the caption for each channel, bulk-schedule a week of posts in one go, publish now or save drafts, and post every format that matters: Reels, Stories, carousels, Shorts, Instagram trial reels, TikTok drafts and long posts for X Premium accounts. When the queue runs low, Ampli can fill it with slideshows, carousels and pins built on templates modeled after posts that went viral.

What sets Ampli apart is that it is built for AI agents. Its MCP server and REST API let Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf and any MCP client schedule and publish for you on autopilot: upload your photos and videos, post them across every channel on a schedule you describe in plain words, or run one of the preset viral templates to create the post first. Agent access is included on every plan, and posts your agent writes use no Ampli credits.

Best for: Creators, founders and small teams who want one calendar for every channel, run by hand or by their AI agent

Which one should you choose?

Choose Ampli if…

  • You manage your own brand or a few clients. Ampli starts free and tops out at $39 a month for 15 channels, while Ayrshare starts at $149 a month for one profile and has no free plan.
  • You want a calendar, not an API. Ampli gives you one calendar and queue with drafts, per-channel captions and bulk scheduling for TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Threads, Facebook, YouTube and X, plus WordPress. Ayrshare's dashboard has no calendar view and covers only part of its API.
  • You want your AI agent to schedule on a small budget. Through Ampli's MCP server, Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor upload media and schedule or publish across every channel, on every plan including Free. Ayrshare's MCP server drives an API that starts at $149 a month, with profile management on Business and Enterprise.
  • When you need posts to schedule, Ampli can make them. It generates slideshows, carousels and Pinterest pins on templates modeled after posts that went viral. Ayrshare's AI text tools are API endpoints in the $300-a-month Max Pack, and it does not design visuals.

Ayrshare may suit you if…

  • You run a SaaS product or agency platform where customers connect their own accounts, and you need customer profiles and webhooks through an API.
  • You need networks Ampli does not support: Reddit, Bluesky, Telegram, Google Business Profile or Snapchat.
  • You want comments, DMs, reviews and automatic reposting in the same API you post through.

Frequently asked questions

Is Ampli a good alternative to Ayrshare?

Yes, for creators and small teams. Ampli is a scheduler you use in the app, with one calendar for 8 networks plus WordPress, and it starts free, then costs $12 to $39 a month. It can also fill your queue with slideshows, carousels and pins on viral templates. Ayrshare fits better if you are embedding social posting for many customers in your own product.

Is Ampli cheaper than Ayrshare?

Yes. Ayrshare's Premium plan is $149 a month ($129 billed yearly) for one profile, Launch is $299 ($249 yearly) for up to 10 profiles, Business starts at $599 ($499 yearly) and the Max Pack add-on is $300 a month. Ampli has a free plan, and its paid plans cost $12, $29 or $39 a month for 3, 8 or 15 channels.

Does Ayrshare have a free plan?

No. Only the Launch plan has a free trial (28 days); Premium and Business are billed at signup. Ampli has a free plan with 2 channels and 50 published posts a month, with no credit card needed.

Is Ayrshare a scheduler for individual creators?

Not mainly. Ayrshare is an API built for products and agencies. Its dashboard and mobile apps let you post and review activity, but the dashboard covers only part of the API. Ampli is built for creators and small teams who want to create and schedule posts in one app.

Can I post from Claude or ChatGPT with either tool?

Yes. Ampli's MCP server works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any MCP client on every plan, including Free, so your agent can upload media and schedule or publish across every channel. It can also generate a post on a Ampli template first, and posts your own agent writes use no Ampli credits. Ayrshare runs a hosted MCP server and a Claude Code plugin that drive its API, with profile management on Business and Enterprise.

Does Ayrshare write posts with AI?

Through the API, with an add-on. Ayrshare's Generate endpoints write, rewrite and translate post text, transcribe video and create alt text, and they need the Max Pack. Ampli generates complete slideshows, carousels and pins, design included, and every Ampli plan comes with AI credits, starting with 20 on the free plan.

How we compared

We read each tool's public pricing page, feature pages and help center and recorded what every plan includes. Yes means the feature is available as described. Limited means it is only on higher plans, sold as an add-on, or restricted in a way the numbered note explains. No means it is not offered, or we found no documentation of it. Ampli's column lists only features that are live in production today.
