Publish to 9 platforms
The loop
Research. Create. Publish. Learn.
vidIQ tells you what to make. Blotato helps you ship it. Poststacks runs the whole loop in one workspace.
Research
Find what your niche is searching for — scored keywords, competitor outliers, and a niche map that shows where you can actually win.
Create
Turn a pick into posts and video — script to storyboard to a rendered MP4, with per-platform copy spun automatically.
Publish
Queue a week, drop slots on the calendar, and publish for real to all 9 platforms from one place.
Learn
See what landed and feed it straight back into your next round of research. The loop gets sharper every week.
Everything in the stack
Research depth and real publishing, together
Keyword Lab
Scored keywords with trend lines, so you chase real demand instead of hunches.

Niche Brain
Map your terrain — topics, gaps, and creator deep-dives that show where you can win.
AI Video Studio
Script to storyboard to a Remotion-rendered MP4, thumbnails included.
Per-platform variants
One idea, tailored copy and aspect ratio for every network — automatically.
Queue & calendar
A weekly queue and calendar that keep a steady posting rhythm without the guilt.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Do I need my own AI keys?
No. Poststacks works out of the box on managed keys. Optional BYOK — plug in your own AI keys and pay providers directly — is on the roadmap.
Which platforms can I publish to?
Nine: X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Threads, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, and Bluesky. Each post spins into per-platform variants before it ships.
Is scheduling reliable?
Publishing runs through Ayrshare, the same infrastructure that powers real posting to every connected network. You queue a week, drop slots on the calendar, and posts go out for real.
Can I automate it via API?
Yes. On the Studio plan you can trigger research runs and publishing from n8n, Make, Zapier, or your own scripts, so Poststacks slots into an existing workflow.
How is this different from vidIQ or Blotato?
vidIQ is strong at YouTube research but doesn't publish. Blotato publishes and repurposes but has no research depth. Poststacks runs the full loop — research, create, publish, learn — in one workspace.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free plan covers 1 brand, full recording studio (camera, screen, teleprompter), and scene detection & voice-to-script — you research and create for free, then connect your accounts to publish when you upgrade. While we're in beta, everything is free — paid tiers activate at launch.
