# Key Features
- Unlimited scheduled posts, accounts, and client Groups (no meters)
- One post editor with per-platform text, hashtags, and media
- Recurring/evergreen posts
- Bulk CSV import: schedule a whole calendar from one spreadsheet (datetime + text columns, optional titles and media matched from an uploaded pool)
- Custom video covers/thumbnails on 5 platforms, frame-picked on 2 more
- Background resumable uploads (up to 200 MB / 15 min video)
- Pre-publish media verification, automatic retries, per-account publish results, and a failure email that links straight to the post
- Teams: Group-scoped member invites (members join free), post approvals, client review links with no client login or seat, 30-day activity view
- Analytics from real platform APIs: LinkedIn, YouTube, Bluesky, Pinterest live; Instagram/Facebook/Threads engagement
- Meta-verified Tech Provider (since 2024); all connections via official platform APIs
- AI connection over MCP: 53 tools at https://mcp.schedchie.com/mcp — schedule/edit posts with media and video covers, manage the queue, read analytics, and run team approvals from ChatGPT, Claude (claude.ai, Desktop, Code), Cursor, VS Code, or any MCP client. OAuth 2.1 sign-in with per-group permissions; no token to copy on the connector clients. No AI features inside the product itself — this connects the user's own AI assistant to their account
- Video from the user's own device over MCP: an assistant returns an upload link (schedchie.com/upload/<token>) the user opens on the phone or laptop holding the file; bytes go browser-to-storage and never through the conversation, resumable, same 200 MB / 15 min ceiling as the app. Clients that render in-chat apps show a file picker in the message instead. Works on every MCP client, not only the ones with in-chat UI

# Current Limitations (honest disclosure)
- X (Twitter) publishing is a paid add-on rather than included, due to X API pricing
- No TikTok or X analytics
- No import of past posts from other schedulers — switching is a manual reconnect
- No public API and no mobile apps
- No AI content-generation features

# Competitive Positioning (competitor prices verified 2026-07-21)
Schedchie is positioned as the unmetered alternative to:
- Buffer ($5/channel/month Essentials — 10 accounts = $50/month)
- Hootsuite (Standard: $99/user/month billed annually, 10 accounts)
- Later (Starter: $25/month, 1 social set, 30 posts/profile/month cap)
- Metricool (Starter: €16/month up to 5 brands; approvals on the €43 Advanced tier)
- Typefully (text-first: no TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, or Pinterest publishing)
Schedchie's flat €7.99/month includes unlimited accounts and unlimited posts.

# Markdown For Agents
# Every public page on this site has a markdown version. Two ways to get it:
#   1. Append .md to the path       — https://www.schedchie.com/blog/<slug>.md
#   2. Send Accept: text/markdown   — same URL, markdown response
# Blog markdown is generated from the same database row the HTML page renders,
# so it cannot state anything the HTML page does not. Posts carry YAML front
# matter (title, description, url, published, updated, author, tags, language).
