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 want one calendar for every channel at a fraction of the price. Ampli schedules to TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Threads, Facebook, YouTube and X for $29 a month on Pro (8 channels) or $39 on Premium (15), and starts free; Eclincher Standard is $149 a month, or $134 billed yearly, for 15 profiles.
  • You post Instagram Stories alongside Reels and Shorts. Ampli schedules Stories, Reels, Instagram trial reels, Shorts and TikTok videos, and can send TikToks to your drafts; Eclincher does not document Instagram Story publishing.
  • You want your AI agent to schedule for you, starting free. Both tools have an MCP server, but agent access comes with every Ampli plan, even Free, so Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor can upload media and schedule or publish across every channel from a plain-language request.
  • When you need posts to schedule, Ampli can make them. It builds slideshows, carousels and pins on templates modeled after posts that went viral, from a link, topic or pasted text; Eclincher's AI writes captions and generates images but does not design carousels or slideshows.

Eclincher may suit you if…

  • You manage reviews and local listings as well as social. The inbox handles Google, App Store, Trustpilot and Tripadvisor reviews, and Eclincher publishes to Google Business Profile, which Ampli does not support.
  • You want evergreen smart queues, RSS auto-posting and recycling of your best-performing posts.
  • You need an inbox with automation rules and AI auto-replies, plus custom and competitor reports.
