Automation and integrations decision
POSTEVERYWHERE LTD
A narrow self-hosted scheduler (few platforms, composer, scheduler, retries, basic analytics) is realistic for a competent developer; reproducing PostEverywhere's full product (11 native integrations, hosted MCP agent server, AI studio and polished analytics/UX) is a much larger engineering effort and operational burden.

Open-source builds that already do this
Every project below is open source and already does this job today. Fork one, self-host it, or take the parts you need - the build prompt further down assumes an empty file, and this is the shortcut past that. Licences differ; check the one on each card before you ship. All POSTEVERYWHERE LTD alternatives, with the arithmetic →
Code POSTEVERYWHERE LTD publishes itself
Not a way out of the subscription - these are the vendor’s own repositories. Worth a look for how they build, and for anything you would have to integrate with.
What a replacement has to do
- Author a post (text+media) → transform/format per-platform → enqueue/schedule the post → deliver to each platform via platform APIs at scheduled time → surface delivery status and basic analytics.
What it still won’t have
- Out-of-the-box reliable integrations across 11 platforms (edge cases & undocumented API quirks)
- Hosted MCP server for direct AI-agent connectivity
- Built-in AI Studio with image+video generation models and bundled credits
- Polished visual calendar, analytics dashboard, and team/workspace UX
- Official SDK, CLI and webhooks that are production-hardened
What remains hard
- Product polish and ongoing maintenance

What we assumed
The verdict above measures whether you could build it. This one is only about money.
Runnable build prompt
Build a minimal cross-platform social scheduler in Node.js + Postgres + Redis + React. Scope in: (1) OAuth-based connection and token storage for 3 platforms (Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook), (2) a web composer plus CSV bulk upload that allows per-platform overrides, (3) a scheduler/worker (BullMQ) that enqueues publish jobs, performs per-platform API calls with retry and rate-limit handling, (4) a simple results table and per-post delivery status, and (5) basic analytics polling (daily) for impressions/likes via platform APIs. Out of scope: AI image/video generation, an MCP agent server, multi-tenant workspace roles, and support for all 11 networks. Include error handling for API failures, idempotency for retries, tests for scheduler and delivery adapters, and a README with deployment steps (Docker + managed Postgres + Redis).

The base comes from the verdict. Everything under it is a check that either happened or did not, and each one is a fact frozen in this record rather than a judgement made at render time - so the same evidence always produces the same number.
