# Scheduling

**In short:** set a posting schedule per profile (timezone, a daily goal, and time slots), then queue posts to it. How a post publishes depends on the platform and what is in it: plain Twitter posts from Studio open a confirm window, while threads, media, LinkedIn posts, and posts from audenAI chat publish directly.

**Your schedule, per profile**

Go to **Settings → Posting schedule**. Each profile has its own schedule:

* a **timezone**,
* a **daily posting goal** (1 to 20 posts and replies you aim for on this profile),
* and a **7-day slot grid** where you set the times you want to post, with a day on/off switch.

There are quick helpers to copy Monday's slots across weekdays, or copy a schedule from another profile.

On Twitter, VoiceMoat can offer **audenAI-picked** time slots based on when your audience is active. On LinkedIn, you get sensible generic presets instead, because the data-backed timing needs Twitter's analytics.

**Scheduling a post**

From Studio, the Schedule dialog gives you four options:

* **Next slot**: the next open time on your schedule,
* **audenAI picks**: the best upcoming time (Twitter),
* **Auto-schedule**: drops it into the next available slot, respecting your horizon and daily cap,
* **Custom time**: pick it yourself.

You can also ask **audenAI chat** to schedule or reschedule a post. It shows a confirm card with the text, the account, and the time, and nothing is queued until you confirm. It cannot cancel or delete a scheduled post; do that from the calendar.

Scheduled posts publish automatically at their time, using your own account's permissions.

**How far ahead, and how many**

Your plan sets how far ahead you can schedule and how many posts per day:

|                         | Free          | Creator | Pro     | Enterprise |
| ----------------------- | ------------- | ------- | ------- | ---------- |
| Schedule horizon        | not available | 7 days  | 15 days | 30 days    |
| Scheduled posts per day | 0             | 3       | 4       | 5          |

The same horizon sets how far ahead **Growth Autopilot** plans. See Growth mode.

**How posts actually publish**

This is the one genuinely different-by-platform part:

| What you are posting                           | How it goes out                                                                                                                                |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Plain single Twitter post from Studio          | Opens the Twitter post window for you to confirm, then you mark it done. No automatic posting.                                                 |
| Twitter thread or a post with media            | Publishes directly through the API (needs Pro or above).                                                                                       |
| Any LinkedIn post                              | Publishes directly through the API: single post, JPEG or PNG images or one PDF, no threads, video, or GIFs. Images or a PDF need Pro or above. |
| Post now from audenAI chat                     | Publishes directly after you tap **Post** on the card. Text only; Twitter threads need Pro or above.                                           |
| A post published from Claude, ChatGPT, or Grok | Publishes directly after a preview and a second, confirmed call. See Connect VoiceMoat to an assistant.                                        |

{% hint style="warning" %}
A plain Twitter text post from Studio is intentionally hands-on: VoiceMoat opens the post pre-filled and you confirm. Threads, media, and LinkedIn posts publish for you. Posting media needs Pro or above on both Twitter and LinkedIn, and threads (Twitter only) need Pro or above too, while a plain tweet or a plain LinkedIn text post does not.

**Common questions**

**Do I have to be online when a scheduled post fires?** No. Scheduled posts publish on their own at the set time.

**Why does my plain tweet open a window instead of just posting?** That is by design for plain single tweets from Studio. Threads, media, LinkedIn posts, and posts you confirm in audenAI chat publish directly.

**Can Free schedule posts?** No. Scheduling is a paid feature. Free can draft and post in the moment, but not queue ahead.
