Our suggestion based on what it does, not a feature-by-feature comparison.
Make money with it
A freelancer could offer a monthly social media management service for local businesses, using Postiz to plan and schedule their content.
An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.
Ways a business could use it
- Replace a paid scheduling subscription by self-hosting it for your own brand's social accounts
- Manage and schedule social media content for several clients from one workspace
Can you use it commercially?
Free to use. Anything you distribute that includes it must be open-sourced under the same licence. Running it as an online service also counts, so a hosted version must offer its source.
Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.
Getting it running
Self-hosting uses Docker (or Coolify, Railway or a VPS) with PostgreSQL, Redis, storage and environment variables, following the Quick Start guide in the docs.
Follow the official instructions in the project README.
Things to check
- Self-hosting means creating your own developer apps on each social platform, and approval from Meta, YouTube or TikTok can take weeks
- AI features need your own paid API keys, such as OpenAI
- AGPL-3.0 licence has obligations if you offer a modified version as a service
