Smoother publishing: profile groups management, pages pickers, and a publishing log

Hey everyone - we've been shipping a lot this past week, so here's a roundup of everything that landed.

This one is mostly about making day-to-day publishing smoother: less manual input, better platform coverage, and more visibility into what's happening with your posts. Let's get into it.

Profile Groups: now with full management

Profile groups have been around for a while — you could create a group and use it when composing posts. But that was about it. If you made a typo in the name or wanted to clean up old groups, there was no way to do that.

Now you can rename and delete groups right from the profiles page. Small thing, but it was overdue.

LinkedIn: automatic organization discovery

You could already post to LinkedIn company pages by entering the organization ID manually. Now we fetch your organizations automatically — just pick from a dropdown. No more digging through LinkedIn settings to find the right ID.

Facebook: page picker

Same idea. If you have multiple Facebook pages connected, you now get a dropdown to choose which page to publish to — for both posts and stories. Previously it would just go to the first page. Now you're in control.

Better video support for X (Twitter)

Video posting to X was already supported, but if your video wasn't in H.264 format, Twitter would silently reject it. We now detect the codec and automatically transcode to H.264 before uploading. You don't need to think about formats anymore, just upload your video and we'll handle the rest.

Timezone settings

You can now set your preferred timezone in account settings. This affects how scheduled post times are displayed and interpreted. Small but important if you're scheduling content across time zones.

Publishing log

This is a big one for transparency. Every post now gets a detailed log: when it was created, scheduled, published, and whether it succeeded or failed on each platform. You can see the full timeline on the post detail page, and there's also a global log view in the sidebar.

If something went wrong with a post, you'll now know exactly what happened and when.

Expanded analytics

We're pulling more data from platform APIs for post insights. Not a huge visual change yet, but the data is richer - more metrics from Facebook in particular.


That's it for this week. We're heads down on a few bigger things, but in the meantime, if something feels off or you have an idea for what we should build next, just reach out. We read everything.

Cheers,
Dmitry ✊
