The problem it solves

You waste time manually uploading media, double-checking caption length and format rules, then publishing posts one by one across accounts. A small formatting mistake can get a post rejected after you have already scheduled your day around it.

Who it fits

Social media managers or small marketing teams publishing content on a regular schedule.

How it works

  1. You provide a media file, caption, and target profile
  2. The system uploads the media and waits for it to finish processing
  3. It checks the post against the platform's rules for caption length and format
  4. The post is published immediately or scheduled for later
What you get

Posts that publish exactly on schedule

You can hand off a photo or video with a caption and have it checked against platform rules, then published or scheduled for you.

What you get

A published or scheduled social media post, checked against platform rules beforehand.

What you need

A Swonkie account with at least one connected social media profile.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
