Heropost
Checked 26 Oct 2026 · source · 10 networks · API not stated · AI yes
Small brands and agencies that want a scheduler with a built-in AI agent and the option to drive it from ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor.
You need a permanent free plan or a published public API: the page offers a free start, not a free plan, and documents AI-tool connections rather than an API.
Overview
Heropost is a scheduler built around an AI agent. The homepage says the agent plans your week, writes posts for each network, schedules them, reports on what performs and drafts replies to comments and messages. By default it waits for your approval before anything is posted, which matters if you don't want a bot publishing unattended.
Around the agent sit the usual pieces: a drag-and-drop calendar with month, week and day views, bulk scheduling from a CSV file, an Instagram grid planner and a social inbox. Content can be imported from sources such as Shopify, WordPress and RSS, and the tool connects to ChatGPT, Claude and Cursor. My data lists ten networks, including Threads, Bluesky and Google Business; the pricing page counts 12, and Reddit and Telegram are the two left out of my list.
There is no permanent free plan. The pricing page says free to start with no credit card and answers yes to a free trial, but it doesn't state how long the trial runs. A public REST API isn't confirmed on the pages I read; what is documented is the connection to AI tools, so check that before building anything on it.
What it does well
- It puts an AI agent at the center and keeps a human approval step as the default.
- The calendar offers month, week and day views, plus CSV bulk scheduling and an Instagram grid planner.
- Content can be pulled in from Shopify, WordPress and RSS.
- The top plan has unlimited accounts and workspaces under fair use.
What to watch out for
- No permanent free plan: the offer is a free start, and the trial length isn't stated.
- Posting to X uses X credits that are sold separately from the plan.
- The entry plan has 1 user and 2 workspaces.
- A public API isn't confirmed on the pages I read.

How we checked
Read directly from heropost.ai/pricing (the older heropost.io domain redirects to heropost.ai). Yearly equivalents are the monthly figures shown on the yearly toggle ($278, $470 and $950 billed yearly; the page says the monthly figure is the yearly price divided by 12, rounded to the nearest dollar). The page lists 12 networks; Reddit and Telegram are omitted here. Posting to X uses X credits sold separately. The pricing page says 'Free to start, no credit card' and answers 'Is there a free trial?' with yes, so it is recorded as a trial, not a free plan. Connects to ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and others; a public REST API is not confirmed on the pages read.
