Write a post yourself or bring a draft from your preferred AI agent. Review the words and choose your accounts.

Plan your next post

Choose a time for a supported account and follow its delivery in Monthly. Review and approve agent drafts before scheduling.

FOLLOW YOUR PROGRESS

See what your posts are doing.

Review your connected account’s recent posts and the engagement and insight fields Instagram makes available. Missing provider metrics stay unavailable; they are not replaced with invented counts.

Troubleshooting

A clear next step when something stops.

The agent cannot connect: Use https://app.monthly.so/mcp exactly, including /mcp. Choose OAuth and automatic registration (DCR), then check your agent’s account or workspace restrictions. A client that only offers published identity documents needs a compatibility check; never switch off authentication to get past an error. A custom connection is separate from a public directory listing.
An account is missing: Connect and enable it in Monthly first. Each connection sees only the accounts selected during consent. Reconnect the agent to add another account.
Scheduling returns 409: Open the review URL and approve the current revision. Changing text, images, destinations or time invalidates the prior approval.
The network needs reconnecting: Open Settings → Integrations and reconnect the named account. For X images, the grant must include media.write.
You are changing agents: Revoke the old connection in Settings → AI agents & API. Existing queued posts remain scheduled; cancel them separately if needed.
