Features — Scheduling
Scheduling that holds the post
Schedule a post to the minute, publish it immediately, or cancel it while it is still waiting — on every network, including the ones with no native scheduling.
Not one network’s scheduler — yours
Most of the networks postfast publishes to have no scheduling of their own, and the ones that do model it differently. So postfast does not delegate: it holds the post and hands it to each network at the moment it is due. That is why the same publish time means the same thing on all seven, and why a scheduled post can be edited or cancelled right up until it fires.
A post carries one publish time and one status. Leave the time empty and it publishes immediately; set one and it waits. Either way the delivery record is the same shape, so nothing about a post behaves differently because of how you chose to send it.
The states a post moves through
- Draft. Written, saved, going nowhere. The default, and the state a post stays in until you say otherwise.
- Scheduled. Queued for a specific minute. Editable and cancellable while it waits.
- Publishing. In flight. Each target is being handed over and recorded independently.
- Published. Only once every target succeeded — a post is not called published because most of it was.
- Failed. At least one target was rejected, with the network’s own error kept verbatim against that target.
- Cancelled. Stopped before it went out, deliberately. Nothing partial, nothing silent.
What you get
A calendar
Everything scheduled, drafted and published, laid out by date across every connected account.
Publish now
The same pipeline, minus the wait. No separate code path means no separate class of bug.
Cancel while queued
A scheduled post can be pulled back at any point before it is handed over.
No monthly post cap
Every paid plan schedules an unlimited number of posts. Plans are priced on accounts and seats, not on how much you publish.
Common questions
- Is there a limit on how many posts I can schedule?
- No. Every paid plan carries an unlimited number of scheduled posts. What plans differ on is connected accounts, seats and workspaces.
- Can I edit a post after scheduling it?
- Yes, while it is still waiting. Once publishing has started, the delivery record is what changes rather than the post.
- What if a network is down at the scheduled minute?
- That target is retried, with what the network actually returned recorded against it. Every other target on the same post is unaffected.
