Any instance, one calendar
Connect accounts from mastodon.social, fosstodon.org, your own self-hosted server — and schedule toots to all of them from a single calendar.
Schedule toots across the fediverse
Schedule toots to any instance — with content warnings, per-post visibility, and language — and let Postqued auto-publish through Mastodon's official API. Plans start at $9/month.
What you'll be able to do
Built for how the fediverse actually works
Content warnings built in
Set a CW on any scheduled toot so sensitive topics stay folded behind a spoiler, the way the fediverse expects.
Images, video, and sensitive media
Attach images or video to a toot, mark media as sensitive, and set the post language. Postqued does not have a field for your own image alt text yet.
Per-toot visibility
Schedule public, unlisted, followers-only, or direct posts, and add an optional first-comment reply to any toot.
Official Mastodon API
Publishing runs on Mastodon's standards-based REST API with a token you authorize yourself. No scraping, no password sharing.
Bots, scripts & MCP
Automate toots from a backend job, a feed bot, or an AI agent with one static API key — fediverse automation done cleanly.
Why schedule Mastodon
A chronological, decentralized network rewards planning
Reach a global, timezone-spread fediverse
Mastodon has no algorithmic feed — toots surface chronologically. Scheduling lets you land posts when your followers' home timelines are actually awake, across servers and timezones.
Stay consistent without living in the app
Privacy-minded communities reward steady, thoughtful posting over engagement-bait. Schedule a week of toots and announcements so you show up reliably.
Cross-post your fediverse presence
Run a project account, a personal account, and a community server account at once. Schedule each from one place instead of logging into three different instance web UIs.

Details come from Postqued's comparison data, reviewed 6 August 2026, with Bluesky support for Buffer and Postiz checked on their sites on 30 September 2026.

Mastodon scheduling questions
Can I schedule toots across different Mastodon instances?
Yes. Because the fediverse is decentralized, your account can live on mastodon.social, fosstodon.org, your own self-hosted server, or anywhere else. Postqued lets you connect accounts from any instance and schedule toots to publish on whichever home server you belong to.
How does Postqued publish to Mastodon?
Through Mastodon's official REST API using an application access token you authorize on your own instance. No password sharing, no scraping — just native, standards-based publishing to your timeline.
Can I schedule a content warning and visibility per toot?
Yes. Postqued lets you set a content warning, the sensitive flag, visibility (public, unlisted, followers-only, or direct), and language when you schedule a toot. There is no field for your own image alt text yet.
Does Mastodon have a built-in scheduler already?
Mastodon's API supports scheduled statuses, but managing them across multiple accounts and instances from a web client is clunky. Postqued gives you one calendar for every account, plus an API — no jumping between instance web UIs.
Is there a Mastodon scheduling API for developers?
Yes. Postqued is API-first. You can schedule toots from scripts, backend jobs, no-code tools, or AI agents with a single static API key — including over MCP.
How much does Postqued cost for Mastodon?
Plans start at $9/month, with all 10 platforms, multiple workspaces, and unlimited team seats on Pro and Agency. Posts are unlimited on every plan and connected accounts scale by plan up to unlimited on Agency, with no per-instance or per-toot fees.
