Weekly posting schedule across all platforms.

A free 7-day publishing cadence planner that maps one source content stream onto a multi-platform posting schedule. Adjusts platform-specific frequency (TikTok 1-3/day, LinkedIn ≤3/week, Reels 4-7/week) and best-time-of-day based on goal (growth, maintenance, quality-first) and team size.

Enter source content cadence (e.g. 1 podcast/week) + goal (growth/maintenance) + team size. The planner outputs a weekly posting schedule across TikTok, Reels, Shorts, LinkedIn, X with platform-specific best-time recommendations.

        Who this is for

        Creators with one source content stream who need a repeatable weekly schedule across 4-5 platforms.

        The problem this solves

        Posting frequency varies wildly by platform. TikTok rewards 1-3x/day. LinkedIn punishes >1/day. Reels likes 4-7/week. Shorts wants 3-5/week. Without a planner, creators either underuse high-frequency platforms or burn out trying to match TikTok cadence on LinkedIn.

        Each major platform has a wildly different optimal posting frequency: TikTok rewards 7-21 posts/week, Reels rewards 4-7/week, LinkedIn punishes anything above 5/week, and YouTube Shorts wants 3-5/week — mismatched cadence is the #1 reason multi-platform creators stall.

        Frequently asked

        How often should I post on each platform?

        TikTok: 7-21/week (1-3/day). Reels: 4-7/week. YouTube Shorts: 3-5/week. LinkedIn: 2-5/week (over 5 hurts reach). X: 7-21/week. The planner outputs your specific schedule based on team size and goal.

        Why does LinkedIn punish high frequency?

        LinkedIn's algorithm protects feed signal — high-volume posters get throttled to prevent dominating any user's feed. Posting daily can cut your reach per post by 50-70% vs posting 3×/week.

        What's the best time to post on each platform?

        TikTok: 6-10am and 7-11pm (audience-time-zone). Reels: 11am-1pm and 7-9pm. Shorts: 12-3pm and 9-11pm. LinkedIn: 7-10am Tue-Thu. X: multiple times daily at 9am/12pm/6pm.

        Can a solo creator realistically hit 21 TikToks per week?

        Only with batched recording + AI clip-finding from a single long-form source. Manual creation of 21 TikToks/week takes 25+ hours and isn't sustainable without burnout. Repurposing-first workflow makes the math work.

        Should I prioritize frequency or quality?

        During audience-building (under 10k): frequency wins. Each post is a discovery shot. After 50k: quality wins. Your subscribers expect higher production value, and reach per post compounds with brand recognition.
