Crosspostbot
Video Publishing and Social Media Management Platform
Crosspostbot is a social media content management platform that helps users upload, schedule, and publish video content across connected YouTube and Instagram accounts. Crosspostbot allows content creators, video producers, and publishers to connect their YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok accounts to publish, schedule, and distribute video content — including YouTube Shorts and standard videos — across multiple channels from a single centralized interface without repetitive manual uploads.
What is Crosspostbot?
Crosspostbot helps users connect their social media accounts, upload and schedule video content, and publish videos to connected YouTube channels from one centralized platform.
The primary purpose of Crosspostbot is social media content management and automated video publishing. Instead of manually logging into YouTube Studio, Instagram, and TikTok separately to upload the same video file multiple times, creators can connect their social media accounts to Crosspostbot and manage their entire publishing calendar from one unified application.
With Crosspostbot, users can:
- Connect Accounts via Official OAuth: Securely link YouTube channels, Instagram accounts, and TikTok profiles using standard OAuth 2.0 authorization without sharing passwords.
- One-Click Multi-Platform Video Publishing: Upload a video once and automatically publish it to YouTube (as Shorts or standard videos), Instagram Reels, and TikTok.
- Automated Scheduling: Queue videos to be published at specific times and dates according to your optimal posting schedule.
- Channel Metadata & Status Monitoring: View connected YouTube channel names, subscriber counts, and upload statuses in real time.
- Social Media Content Management: Monitor video publishing history, logs, and comments across connected accounts.
Crosspostbot is built specifically for YouTubers, video creators, marketing agencies, and social media managers who want to save time and streamline their video crossposting operations.
YouTube Integration & Google OAuth Scope Disclosures
Crosspostbot connects to YouTube using Google OAuth 2.0 authorization and interacts with your channel exclusively through the official YouTube Data API v3. When you connect your YouTube channel, Crosspostbot requests only the minimal necessary permissions required to provide our video publishing and social media content management features:
