Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm David, the maker of Cue.
This started over the Christmas holidays – I was building an app and needed to promote it across multiple social accounts. I looked at Buffer, Hootsuite, Later... they all worked, but pricing scaled fast once you needed more than 2-3 accounts. For a solo dev? Felt excessive.
So I built something for myself. Two weeks turned into four, and the tool I made to promote my side project became THE side project.
What Cue does:
📅 Schedule across 8 platforms – Twitter/X, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook (TikTok, Pinterest & YouTube coming soon)
🎯 Auto-scheduling – Picks optimal posting times based on engagement patterns
✍️ Write once, customize per platform – Tailor your message for each audience, schedule everywhere
🤖 AI assistant – Help with writing captions and creating images
🔌 Full REST API – Build your own integrations
⚡ n8n workflows – For automation power users
🧠 MCP integration – Schedule posts directly from AI assistants like Claude
It's free to get started, and I'm offering early supporters 50% off paid plans for the first 3 months.
Questions for the community
1. What features matter most to you?
2. What would make you switch from your current tool?
@dparrelli Hi David, congrats on launching Cue. Building something from your own pain point is always a good sign.
I work closely with startup founders and solo builders, and social posting is one of the biggest things that gets dropped when things get busy.
The write-once, customize-per-platform feature stands out for me. That solves a real workflow problem.
One thing that would matter most to many founders I support is simple approval and scheduling visibility, especially when juggling launches and updates.
If you ever want feedback from the “behind-the-scenes” side of founders, I’m happy to share insights from my work.
Wishing you a strong launch.
Scheduling across 8 platforms hits scale pain fast: OAuth token churn, per-platform rate limits, and idempotency issues that create duplicate posts when retries happen.
Best practice is a platform-adapter layer with a durable job queue, per-destination idempotency keys, webhook-based status reconciliation, and an audit log that can replay or cancel safely.
Do you expose a per-post execution trace (API request IDs, retry history) and support “single source of truth” edits that propagate to already-scheduled variants without breaking platform-specific constraints?
Cue
@ryan_thill We use a job queue system with retry logic and idempotency handling to prevent duplicates. Users get notifications if something fails and can see post status in their dashboard. We don't expose full execution traces yet but that's solid feedback, will add it to the list.
@dparrelli Love that you’ve got retries + idempotency in place and a clear status surface in the dashboard, that’s the combo that keeps async systems sane at scale. Notifications on failure are huge for trust.
Execution traces would be a big unlock for debugging and support, even if it starts as a redacted per-step timeline with correlation IDs.
We’re here to work too, happy to help however we can.
Congrats on your launch! Wishing you the best :)
How are you handling the auto-scheduling logic (engagement pattern analysis per account/platform) and integrations with harder ones like Bluesky/Threads? Any details on the AI models powering the caption/image generation?
Cue
Thanks for the message! Auto-scheduling is per-platform, each one gets its own optimal time based on known engagement patterns. Bluesky and Threads were pretty smooth to integrate since their APIs are pretty developer-friendly. For AI, we use GPT-5 mini for captions and Flux/Nano Banana Pro for image generation. Looking to extend this further soon.
Really interested in this! I’ve used Hootsuite in the past, but found it to feel a bit outdated and clunky for my needs.
Do you happen to have any blog posts or comparisons between Cue and other social media managers like Hootsuite or Buffer? I’d love to better understand how you differentiate and where Cue really shines.
Cue
@jake_friedberg Thanks Jake! We actually have comparison pages for both Hootsuite and Buffer on our site. They're great tools, but they get expensive fast as you scale or add more accounts. We built Cue to be more affordable whilst trying to maintain similar feature-parity.
@dparrelli love that, thanks for sharing!
Congrats on the launch! Cue feels thoughtfully built for people who want real control without enterprise pricing bloat. I like the mix of auto-scheduling + per-platform customization without forcing a rigid workflow. How transparent is the optimal time logic, can users see or override why certain time slots are chosen for each platform?
Cue
@vik_sh Appreciate that, Viktor! Optimal times are per-platform, each one gets its own slot based on known engagement patterns. Custom time overrides are on the roadmap so you'll have more control soon!

@curiouskitty Great question! Every post goes through a job queue on Cloudflare with automatic retries and idempotency handling to prevent duplicates. We publish each platform independently, so if one fails, the others stay published and the failed one retries on its own. Tokens refresh automatically, and you get real-time updates in the UI plus email alerts if something breaks with an option to retry (or re-connect your account if we cannot reconnect on our end). Hope that answers your questions :)
Nice, love to see more tools built for the smaller teams and the solo devs. That's what I'm all about. As someone who doesn't do social media but also understands it's value when it comes to running a business - stuff like this with ai to help get what im thinking out and on paper is key. Do you have any plans of building out features that let you help craft your own "voice" across the platforms that ai can evolve from? That way each users experience turns into "their own"
Cue
@imamkevin Thanks Kevin, that's exactly who we built this for! And yes, we have brand voice built in already. You just enter your website and we extract your tone, style, and messaging automatically. The AI then uses that across all your content. Brand voice and AI assistant are early-stage at the moment, hopefully evolve these features as more people use the app and provide their ideas and feedback. Appreciate the support!
