Schedule Mastodon posts on any instance
Connect the server your account lives on, write a thread, and let your team sign it off before Orbitwrite posts it at the time you picked.
No spam. Just one email when we launch.

How Orbitwrite handles Mastodon
Mastodon can schedule one post at a time. Planning a week of them, getting them checked before they go out and seeing how they did happens here.
Connect any instance
Enter the server your account is on and sign in there. A self-hosted instance connects the same way as mastodon.social.
Write threads in the composer
Posts you chain in the composer publish as a thread, each with its own 500-character count.
Polls
Add a poll of two to four options, running anywhere from five minutes to seven days.
Comments and suggested edits
Highlight any part of a draft to leave a comment, or suggest a rewrite your teammate can accept in one click. The thread stays on the post instead of scattering across Slack.
Post it everywhere else at the same time
Send the same idea to X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads and Instagram in one go. Keep every copy in sync, or unsync one account and rewrite it for that audience.
Analytics for every post
Favourites, boosts and replies captured per post and snapshotted daily. Mastodon keeps no history of its own, so without that the numbers are gone.
The rest of the workspace
Everything else that comes with a Mastodon account in an Orbitwrite workspace.
Images, video and GIFs
Attach up to four images, a video, or a GIF from the built-in picker. Size limits are checked while you write, not after you hit schedule.
See it the way Mastodon will
A live preview of the post as it will appear in the timeline, on desktop and mobile, including how a thread reads top to bottom.
Fill your posting slots
Pick the times you want to post each week, then drop drafts into the queue and Orbitwrite fills the next open slot. It can also pick the slot your account tends to do best in.
Drafts in your brand voice
The AI assistant picks up your voice from posts you have already published, then drafts, rewrites and adjusts tone in it. You can edit anything it writes before it is scheduled.
Plan whole campaigns
Describe a campaign and get a full run of posts back, laid out across the calendar with its own performance breakdown once they start going live.
Approvals before anything goes live
Send a post for review with blocking or non-blocking sign-off, and keep a full history of who changed what. Nothing publishes to Mastodon until it has been approved.
Auto-engagement on your own posts
Queue favourites, replies and boosts to fire on a delay or once a post passes a performance threshold, so a thread keeps moving after you have stopped watching it.
Slack and Discord notifications
Post to a Slack or Discord channel the moment something publishes, or when a draft is waiting on someone's review.
