Which one should you pick?
Both are good tools. It comes down to what you post and how you work.
Choose Postbase if
- You post to X. Hypefury's pricing page says it no longer supports X.
- You want YouTube as well as short-form networks, all on one calendar.
- You want an API and an MCP server for Claude and Cursor, or to self-host.
Choose Hypefury if
- You don't need X and want monetisation automation like auto-plugs and auto-DMs.
- You only post to one network and want the $6/month single-channel plan.
- You want AI trained on your own past posts.

Or use the agent built in
Tell it what to post and when. It checks your channels, writes each version and schedules it when you say so.
Here's a post for all three, with a shorter cut for X. It's set for Wednesday at 12:00.
Everything on one calendar
Posts you write and posts your agent schedules, across every network, in a month, week or day view.

Frequently asked questions
Does Hypefury still support X?
Hypefury's pricing page says it no longer supports X. Postbase does: posts, threads of up to 25 posts, images and video.
Can Postbase schedule X threads?
Yes. Add posts to a thread in the composer and Postbase publishes them as a chain of replies at the time you pick.
Does Postbase have auto-plugs or auto-DMs?
No. Postbase focuses on writing, scheduling and publishing. If those automations are central to how you grow, Hypefury is the better fit on the networks it supports.
