Schedchie (€7.99 flat, both platforms included), Metricool, Publer, Buffer and Later can all schedule TikTok and Pinterest together. What separates them is what survives publishing — video pins, cover frames, board targeting — and how each one meters the pair.
Pinterest's rules change on August 18 — here is what actually changes
Pinterest has published updated developer guidelines that take effect on 18 August 2026. Read against the current version, one addition is genuinely new: tools may no longer use Pinterest content or API data to train or fine-tune AI models unless Pinterest expressly permits it. Schedchie is unaffected — it ships no built-in AI and trains nothing on your pins. AI workflows run through the MCP server, where your assistant drafts and Schedchie publishes; your Pinterest data never feeds a model.
Two rules carry forward unchanged, and both shape how every legitimate scheduler works. Pin schedulers stay explicitly permitted, but the person scheduling must choose each Pin — blanket auto-posting engines are banned. And API data may not be stored or cached; tools must call the API fresh each time. Schedchie's flow already matches: you create each pin in the composer or per row in CSV import, pick its board, and Schedchie publishes it at the scheduled time. Nothing about your scheduled pins breaks on August 18.
What each tool can actually post to the pair
TikTok and Pinterest are the two platforms where "supported" hides the most. A scheduler can list Pinterest and still not publish video pins; it can list TikTok and still not let you pick the cover frame, set the AI-content label, or handle a 200 MB upload. And Pinterest refuses any pin that arrives without a board. Capability by tool, verified 4 August 2026 — the full price census lives in our pricing index.
| Tool | Reaches both TikTok and Pinterest? | Where the limit bites |
|---|---|---|
| Schedchie (TikTok, Pinterest) | Yes. TikTok video with frame-picked cover, AI-content label and commercial-disclosure toggles; Pinterest image and video pins into a chosen board or section, with alt text | No account or post cap at €7.99 flat; only TikTok's own API limit applies |
| Metricool | Yes, both | Free plan stops at 20 posts/month across 1 brand; paid starts €20/month |
| Publer | Yes, both | Billed per social account, so the pair counts as two — and it throttles TikTok to 15–25 videos/day depending on plan |
| Buffer | Yes, both | Each platform is a separately billed channel; the meter runs per account added |
| Later | Yes, both | 30 posts per profile per month on Starter ($25/month) — one pin and one TikTok a day with nothing left over |
| Typefully | Neither. Text-first: X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon | No integration exists, so no plan unlocks it |

The pattern to notice: the per-account tools are affordable for exactly this pair and stop being affordable the moment you add a second TikTok account or a client's Pinterest — the meter runs per account, and a two-platform presence for three clients is six billed accounts. Later bundles both platforms into one set but meters posts instead. Schedchie's €7.99 covers unlimited accounts and unlimited posts on both platforms; the math holds at any client count, which is why it wins for Buffer-style per-channel billing, Later's post caps and Metricool's brand tiers alike.
The things that break a Pinterest or TikTok post
TikTok and Pinterest are both video platforms now, and schedulers differ more in the upload path than in the calendar. What Schedchie does on the pair, verified against the product rather than a feature page: TikTok video with a frame-picked cover, TikTok's AI-content label and commercial-disclosure toggles, Pinterest image and video pins into a chosen board or section with alt text, uploads to 200 MB and 15 minutes over a resumable background connection. Pinterest video pins require a cover image — Schedchie prompts for one instead of letting the API reject the pin after the fact.
Which to pick
Price the real workload, not the demo. One brand posting daily to both platforms is ~60 posts a month — already past Later's Starter cap and triple Metricool's free tier. Multiple accounts put the per-account meters to work against you. Schedchie's flat €7.99 is built for exactly this shape of volume: both platforms, every account, no meter. The pricing page has the full plan detail.
FAQ: scheduling TikTok and Pinterest
Which schedulers can post to both TikTok and Pinterest?
Schedchie, Metricool, Publer, Buffer and Later all reach both, verified 4 August 2026. Typefully reaches neither — it is text-first and has no TikTok or Pinterest integration. For what each one costs at a real account count, see the pricing index.
Do Pinterest's new developer guidelines affect scheduled pins?
The guidelines effective 18 August 2026 keep Pin schedulers explicitly permitted — you must choose each Pin, which is how Schedchie already works. The one new rule bans training AI models on Pinterest data; Schedchie trains nothing on your content.
Can I schedule Pinterest video pins, or only images?
On Schedchie, both — image and video pins, into boards and sections, with alt text and a destination link. Check this per tool before paying: video-pin support still varies.
Does TikTok limit scheduled posts?
Yes — TikTok's own API documentation caps direct posting at roughly 15 posts per day per creator account, and the exact ceiling varies by creator. That limit is TikTok's, shared across every tool you connect. Schedchie adds no meter of its own on top.
Why does Typefully not appear in this comparison?
Typefully covers X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky and Mastodon — no TikTok, no Pinterest — so there is nothing to compare on this pair. If your week runs on TikTok videos and Pinterest boards, you need a tool that publishes to both.
