Nothing goes live until you approve it
Reason #1

Get the agent, not just the API

Paste one URL into Claude or ChatGPT, sign in, start asking. Your AI researches viral content, writes in your voice and schedules to 8 platforms. Nothing to build or host, and you can try it during the free trial.

2-minute setup

curl -X POST https://server.posthero.ai/api/v1/posts \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer pk_..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "text": "Just shipped v2.0!",
    "platforms": [{"platform": "linkedin", "accountId": "acc_123"}],
    "schedule": "2026-12-01T09:00:00Z"
  }'

Reason #2

Keep your API and MCP

Developers don't lose anything by switching. Create, schedule and publish posts, upload media and pull analytics through the REST API, or call PostHero as a tool from any MCP host. API-only plan from $9/mo, unlimited posts from $19/mo.

Reason #3

Flat price, not per account

Use the API for $9/mo, or the web app for $19/mo, both with 10 accounts. $49/mo gets you unlimited accounts. Zernio charges for every connected account: 10 accounts cost $48/mo and 100 accounts cost $318/mo. With PostHero, adding a client doesn't change your bill.

Reason #4

Ideas from viral data, not guesses

Your AI starts from what already works. Search viral Instagram reels sorted by viral ratio and browse 10,000+ viral LinkedIn posts and templates. Then ask your AI to make one like it, in your voice.

Reason #5

Track competitors and audit your profile

See what's working for accounts like yours. Track Instagram competitors and keywords, and get a profile audit that tells you what to post next. With an API alone, you'd have to build this yourself.
