MultiPost Review
Browser extension to publish content to multiple social media platforms with one click

Overview
MultiPost (multipost.social) is a social media scheduling and automation tool focused on simplicity, reliability, and affordability. Unlike the category leaders (Hootsuite, Sprout Social, Buffer) that have grown into full suites with analytics, listening, and engagement features, MultiPost stays deliberately lean: it does scheduling and posting well, and doesn't try to do everything else. This makes it ideal for small-to-medium businesses and agencies that already have analytics covered (via native platform insights or a separate tool) and just need a reliable scheduler that won't break the bank. Key features include multi-platform scheduling across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, TikTok, Pinterest, and Google Business Profile. Bulk upload supports CSV-based scheduling of hundreds of posts at once, which is a critical feature for agencies managing multiple clients. Queue-based auto-posting offers customizable schedules per channel. First-comment hashtag support is available for Instagram. A media library stores and reuses images and videos. Basic analytics provides per-post engagement metrics. MultiPost focuses on the scheduling workflow rather than adding layers of AI features, analytics dashboards, or listening tools that many users don't need and don't want to pay for. Pricing is budget-friendly: free tier available with limited features, paid plans typically in the $10-50/month range depending on the number of accounts and posting volume, significantly cheaper than Hootsuite ($99+/mo) or Sprout Social ($249+/mo). MultiPost competes with Buffer (better known, similar simplicity, slightly more expensive), Planable (collaboration-focused), and OneUp (similar price point, more feature-rich). MultiPost's win scenario is the agency or small business that says "I just need to schedule posts across multiple accounts reliably and affordably. I don't need listening, AI content generation, or enterprise approval workflows." It is the anti-Hootsuite: focused, affordable, and intentionally limited in scope.

Review notes
Researched from public documentation, the source repository, and vendor materials. Not a hands-on test.
MultiPost is a browser extension for cross-posting content to multiple social platforms from one compose step. There is no scheduler dashboard to learn because there barely is a dashboard - the browser is the interface. Cross-posting reaches less deeply into each platform's native features than dedicated schedulers.
Ideal for creators who write once and distribute everywhere manually anyway. Brands needing approval workflows and queued calendars will outgrow it quickly.
Verdict
Excellent lightweight cross-poster for individual creators; agencies need more machinery.
