What is Typefully?
Typefully is a writing-first social scheduler for text-centric networks: X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon, and Substack Notes. Known for distraction-free drafting, thread composition, cross-posting from one editor, team collaboration on Business, and unusually generous API/MCP access even on the free tier—making it popular with creators, indie hackers, and technical marketers.
