Social media scheduler

Replaces Buffer. 2 ways out. Best: Buffer (free tier) (cheaper plan), about $60 saved in year one.

Modeled, not measured. Savings use public prices and planning assumptions: the bill you stop paying, minus the new tool, your upkeep time and your setup time at $50/hour, over the first 12 months. Paths marked Tested by Stackcut were run end to end by us on our own products. They're our tests, not customer results. Check the must-haves in each recipe before you switch.
