The best Bluesky scheduler in 2026

Bluesky's open API made it easy for schedulers to support, and most of the major ones now do. That means you rarely need a Bluesky-specific tool; you need whichever of your candidates treats it as a first-class channel rather than an afterthought.

Prices below run from a few dollars to enterprise money, so the honest filter is what else you post to and how much of it.

Our picks

  1. The mainstream pick

    Buffer

    Buffer schedules Bluesky on the same $5-per-channel pricing as everything else, and the free plan's three channels can include it.

    from $5 per channel / mo · free planRead the reviewVisit
  2. For writers who cross-post

    Typefully

    Typefully drafts and schedules Bluesky posts in the same editor as X and Threads, so one piece of writing lands on all three. Free plan, then $12.50 a month.

Common questions

Can a scheduler post to Bluesky automatically?
Yes. Every tool in the table on this page publishes to Bluesky directly through the official API at the time you set, with no phone reminder step. Where a specific format still needs a manual step, the tool's review says so.
What is the cheapest bluesky scheduler?
Publora has the lowest entry price here, from $2.99 per account / mo. Watch the unit each tool charges by, because a per-channel or per-seat price grows with your accounts while a flat plan doesn't.
Is there a free Bluesky scheduler?
Buffer, Metricool, Publer, Agorapulse and CoSchedule all have free plans, along with 12 more in the table below. Free tiers in this category are tight on accounts and post volume, which is usually the point you start paying.
