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 publish to Pinterest or WordPress. Ampli schedules pins and blog posts from the same calendar as TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, Threads, Facebook, YouTube and X, and Oktopost supports neither.
  • You want public pricing per channel and to start today. Ampli is free for 2 channels, then $12 a month for 3, $29 for 8 or $39 for 15, with no demo call or annual quote.
  • You want your AI agent to schedule for you, starting free. Ampli's MCP server and REST API let Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor upload media and schedule or publish across every channel from a plain-language request, with agent access on every plan, even Free; Oktopost has no free plan and lists API access under Advanced.
  • When you need posts to schedule, Ampli can make them. It generates TikTok and Instagram slideshows, carousels and Pinterest pins on templates modeled after posts that went viral; Oktopost's AI Assist writes and refines text.

Oktopost may suit you if…

  • You run B2B social and need to show pipeline: posts sit inside campaigns, links are tracked, and engagement syncs to Salesforce, HubSpot or Marketo.
  • You want an employee advocacy program, where staff share approved posts to their own LinkedIn networks, from the same vendor as your publishing tool.
  • You need a social inbox, listening or Advanced-plan governance such as approval workflows and SSO, or you post to Bluesky. Ampli offers none of these.
