# Post to Social Media from Claude

Claude (chat assistant by Anthropic)

Guide: https://lots.social/agents/claude

Keep the conversation where your ideas already take shape. Connect LotsSocial to Claude to save drafts, schedule posts with media and check how they performed across 12 platforms.

Example workflow: Turn this article into three LinkedIn posts and three X posts. Save them as drafts so I can review them.

**Work with the context in your chat.** Share your article, launch notes or product details with Claude. Ask for separate versions for the platforms you choose.

**Keep the first pass as drafts.** Claude uses LotsSocial to save your posts. Revise them in the conversation or open the calendar for a visual review.

**Schedule the versions you approve.** Give Claude the dates, times and accounts. LotsSocial validates and publishes the scheduled posts, then makes available results accessible to your agent.

### How do I connect Claude to LotsSocial?

Follow the Claude setup below to add https://api.lots.social/mcp. Complete sign-in using the authentication method shown. Ask your agent to list your connected accounts, then save your first post as a draft.

### Is LotsSocial in Claude’s connector directory?

Add LotsSocial as a custom remote connector. Paste the MCP URL into Claude’s connector settings and sign in to your LotsSocial account.

### Which social platforms can Claude schedule posts to through LotsSocial?

Once a compatible connection has write access, LotsSocial provides publishing and scheduling for 12 networks: LinkedIn, Instagram, X, Google Business, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, Threads, TikTok, Pinterest, Bluesky, Mastodon. Connect your accounts first. Formats, media requirements and available analytics vary by platform.

### Can Claude save social posts as drafts before scheduling?

Yes, through a compatible connection with write tools. Ask for drafts explicitly and review the captions, media and accounts. Drafts remain unscheduled until you ask to schedule them; you choose when to schedule them.

### Will scheduled posts publish after I close Claude?

Once a post is successfully scheduled in LotsSocial, its publishing queue handles delivery at the chosen time even when your agent is closed. Creating new drafts or running a recurring brief still requires your agent. Check post status for platform rejections or failed deliveries.

### Do I need a subscription to use LotsSocial with Claude?

No LotsSocial subscription is required. Pick a plan for a fixed monthly price, or pay per connected account with credits, charged daily. Eligible new users receive free starter credits with no card required, valid for 90 days. Media storage is free and purchased credits never expire. Your agent’s own plan or usage fees are separate. Current rates are on the LotsSocial pricing page.

### Can Claude manage multiple brands with LotsSocial?

Through a compatible connection, your agent can work with brands and their connected accounts inside a workspace. Separate businesses can have separate workspaces. Brands, workspaces, posts and team members are unlimited; connected accounts are covered by your plan or funded with credits.

### LotsSocial tools do not appear in a chat

Select the + button at the lower left of the chat, open Connectors and switch LotsSocial on for that conversation.

### New tools are missing after an update

Disconnect and reconnect the connector so Claude reloads the tool list.

Needs:
- Any Claude plan: Free, Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise
- On Team and Enterprise, an owner adds the connector once under Organization settings, then each member connects it

Steps:
1. **Open Connectors.** In Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors. Select + and choose Add custom connector.
2. **Add LotsSocial.** Name it LotsSocial, paste the server URL and select Add.
   `https://api.lots.social/mcp`
3. **Sign in to LotsSocial.** A LotsSocial sign-in opens. Use your email; a new account is created on the spot with free starter credits and a workspace, so there is nothing to set up first.
