Buffer and Runner
Runner keeps every draft, approval and scheduled post on one content calendar, by network, and publishes what you approve at the time you set through each platform's own business connection: LinkedIn Pages, Instagram, Facebook Pages and Bluesky. On X and Reddit, one press opens the post already written, and you press send.
What it is usually bought for
Plan and publish your posts on one calendar
The job, on its own page: Plan and publish your posts on one calendarBuilt into Runner
- One calendar showing what waits for you, what's approved and what's scheduled
- An open slot drafts a post in one press
- LinkedIn posts go out from your company Page, never your personal profile
- Connecting posts nothing, and each post waits for your OK unless you let a team member that has earned it post on its own
Worth knowing
Runner publishes directly to LinkedIn Pages, Instagram, Facebook Pages and Bluesky; on X and Reddit it opens the post with the words in, and you press send.
When to keep Buffer
- If Buffer does this job well for you today, keep it. Nothing on this page asks you to move.
- Runner stops where the bound above says it stops, and a tool you already run may cover exactly that.
Use what already works
Connect each account through the platform's own sign-in screen, or a Bluesky app password, and Runner never holds your account password. Subscribe to the calendar from Google, Apple or Outlook calendar, or share a read-only view with a client by link, with no account.
