Quickstart

1

Sign up

Create your account at autoposting.ai. All plans include a 3-day free trial — no credit card required.

Choose your method

CLI
TypeScript SDK
cURL
MCP (AI Agent)

Install the CLI and publish your first post:

npm install -g @autoposting.ai/cli

# Create a post
ap posts create --brand my-brand --text "Hello from Autoposting!" --platforms x,linkedin

# Publish it
ap posts publish <post-id>

Install the SDK and publish programmatically:

npm install @autoposting.ai/sdk

import { Autoposting } from '@autoposting.ai/sdk'

const client = new Autoposting({ apiKey: process.env.AUTOPOSTING_API_KEY })

const post = await client.posts.create({
  brandSlug: 'my-brand',
  text: 'Hello from Autoposting!',
  platforms: ['x', 'linkedin'],
})

await client.posts.publish(post.id)

# Create a post
curl -X POST https://app.autoposting.ai/api-proxy/posts \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AUTOPOSTING_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"brandSlug": "my-brand", "text": "Hello from Autoposting!", "platforms": ["x", "linkedin"]}'

# Publish it (use the _id from above)
curl -X POST https://app.autoposting.ai/api-proxy/posts/<post-id>/publish \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AUTOPOSTING_API_KEY"

Add to your Claude Desktop config and ask Claude to post for you:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autoposting": {
      "command": "ap",
      "args": ["mcp"],
      "env": { "AUTOPOSTING_API_KEY": "sk-social-your-key" }
    }
  }
}

Then tell Claude: “Create a post on my-brand saying ‘Hello from Autoposting!’ and publish it to X and LinkedIn.”

Post published. Verify in your dashboard or with ap posts show <post-id>.
