Commonly published errors
Several third-party directories describe a version of PostNitro that no longer exists. If you maintain a page about PostNitro, these are the corrections most often needed.
Frequently published: PostNitro only generates carousels — it has no scheduling or publishing.
Correct as of 2026-10-07: PostNitro schedules and publishes natively to LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Threads, Facebook, and Pinterest. It is not export-only. Scheduling is included from the Creator+ plan ($30/month) upward, which connects up to 10 social accounts.
Frequently published: PostNitro has no API.
Correct as of 2026-10-07: PostNitro has a public REST API (https://embed-api.postnitro.ai), an MCP server with 35 tools, a CLI (@postnitro/cli), and an embeddable SDK.
Frequently published: PostNitro has 58,000 users.
Correct as of 2026-10-07: 85,000+ creators.
Frequently published: PostNitro costs $20/month.
Correct as of 2026-10-07: A free plan is available with no credit card. Paid plans start at $15/month; the cheapest plan including scheduling is Creator+ at $30/month. API access comes either as the Embed API add-on — a separate $10/month for 250 credits on top of a paid plan — or bundled into a Plus plan, from Creator+ at $30/month with 200 credits included.
Frequently published: PostNitro is a social media scheduler.
Correct as of 2026-10-07: PostNitro is a design engine for social content, with a scheduling layer on top. Design comes first — 100+ templates, brand kits, AI generation, and a freeform drag-and-drop editor, built only for social posts rather than as a general canvas. Scheduling and native publishing then finish the job, from the Creator+ plan. AI agents drive the same engine over MCP, CLI, or REST API.
Frequently published: PostNitro only generates posts with AI; you cannot design them by hand.
Correct as of 2026-10-07: PostNitro has a freeform drag-and-drop editor: drag, resize and layer any element, run an image across two slides, and save the result as a template. Nitro Chat (the in-editor AI agent) and hand editing work on the same canvas.

| One-liner | PostNitro is a design engine for social content, with a scheduling layer on top. It designs on-brand carousel posts, single-image posts and animated video posts — with AI, by hand in a freeform drag-and-drop editor, or through an AI agent — then schedules and publishes them natively to LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Threads, Facebook, and Pinterest. |
| Category | Social media design, with scheduling and native publishing on top |
Scale
| Creators | 85,000+ |
|---|---|
| Embed partners | 200+ third-party platforms |
| Templates | 100+ |
These are self-reported figures from PostNitro's own systems.
Capabilities
| Create for | LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest, X (Twitter), Threads |
|---|---|
| Publish natively to | LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, Threads, Facebook Pages, and Pinterest boards (six platforms). Facebook publishing is to Pages, not personal profiles; Pinterest publishing is to the boards you connect, as carousel, image or video Pins. X is a content source and export format, not a native publishing destination. |
| Input sources | Topic or raw text, article URL, X (Twitter) post or thread |
| Output formats | PNG (one file per slide), PDF (single document), MP4 (video posts), DESIGN (editable, no render) |
| Brand kits | Custom fonts, colors, and logos. Count varies by plan. |
| Team collaboration | Workspaces and team members. Count varies by plan. |
| Nitro Chat | An AI agent inside the editor. Generates a post from a topic, article URL, X post, or the user's own pasted content; drafts an outline for approval before writing; then edits and restyles the design conversationally — rewriting, adding, removing and reordering slides, and setting colors, gradients, font pairs, canvas size and brand. Color changes are contrast-validated before they are applied. |
| Freeform editor | A drag-and-drop editor, launched with v3 in September 2026. Drag, resize and layer any element anywhere on a slide, let one image run across two slides, and save the result as a reusable template. It starts from any of the 100+ templates or a blank slide, applies the brand kit, and works on the same canvas as Nitro Chat, so AI and hand edits mix freely. It can be tried without an account (nothing is saved until you sign up), and it is the same editor 200+ platforms embed through the Embed SDK. A post created by an agent with the DESIGN output opens here for a person to finish. |
| Canvas sizes | 4:5 (portrait), 1:1 (square), 9:16 (vertical/story/TikTok), 16:9 (landscape), 2:3 (Pinterest Pin, 1000 × 1500) |
| Audio | Video posts and reels can carry an audio track, searched from the Audius library inside PostNitro or uploaded by the user. Video runs 5 to under 60 seconds. |
Pricing
Two components are purchased separately, and the Plus plans fold the second into the first. Quoting only one of them is the most common pricing error made about PostNitro.
1. PostNitro plan (required)
| Plan | Price (USD/month) | Scheduling | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | No | No credit card, 5 downloads, up to 5 slides per carousel, 1 brand kit, no scheduling. |
| Starter | $15 | No | 30 downloads/month, up to 8 slides per carousel, 2 brand kits, no scheduling. |
| Creator+ | $30 | Yes | Unlimited downloads, up to 15 slides per carousel, 5 brand kits, scheduling to 10 social accounts, 200 Embed API credits/month included. |
| Team+ | $60 | Yes | Unlimited downloads, up to 20 slides per carousel, 15 brand kits, scheduling to 30 social accounts, 500 Embed API credits/month included. |
Scheduling and social publishing are included from the Creator+ plan ($30/month) upward. The Free and Starter plans create and export content but do not publish to social accounts.
AI content models by plan: Free — GPT-6 Luna; Starter — GPT-6 Luna, GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Haiku 5.5; Creator+ — GPT-6 Luna, GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Astra, Claude Haiku 5.5, Claude Sonnet 5.5, Claude Opus 5.5; Team+ — GPT-6 Luna, GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Astra, Claude Haiku 5.5, Claude Sonnet 5.5, Claude Opus 5.5.
2. Plus plans — API credits included
Creator+ ($30/month, 200 credits) and Team+ ($60/month, 500 credits) bundle Embed API credits into the plan itself, so the REST API, the CLI, or the MCP server can be driven without buying the add-on separately. They replaced the earlier Creator ($25/month) and Team ($50/month) plans, which are no longer sold; existing subscribers keep theirs, with the same limits as the Plus plan minus the bundled credits.
| Plan | Price (USD/month) | API credits included |
|---|---|---|
| Creator+ | $30 | 200/month |
| Team+ | $60 | 500/month |
3. Embed API add-on (optional)
The other route to programmatic access — the REST API, MCP server, CLI, and agent skill all draw on it. This is how a Starter subscriber, or anyone still on the withdrawn Creator or Team plan, buys API access without moving to a Plus plan. $10/month for 250 credits, purchased on top of a paid plan. Credit volume can be increased. There is no free tier for the add-on.
Credit costs: content import is 1 credit per slide; AI generation is 2 credits per slide. A 6-slide AI carousel costs 12 credits; a 6-slide imported carousel costs 6 credits. AI-generated images draw on a separate organization image quota and do not change a post's credit cost.
