Nothing to host or approve
Self-hosting Postiz is free, but you run the server and get your own app approval from each network. Adly is fully hosted: sign in and connect your accounts.
Postiz alternative
Postiz is an open source scheduler with up to 32 networks and AI built in. Adly is for businesses that want on-brand ads, videos and Arabic or English copy made for them, then published to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and X.
On-brand designs from your brand kit · Arabic and English ad copy · Plans from $19 a month
Postiz is one of the most capable schedulers around. It is open source under AGPL-3.0, you can self-host it for free, it connects to up to 32 providers, and its hosted plans include AI images, AI videos, an API and an MCP server.
Adly takes a different angle. It is a hosted AI marketing platform built for the Arab market. It uses your logo, colors and brand photos to make ad designs, carousels, videos and ad copy in Arabic or English, then publishes them to Facebook Pages, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and X. It also launches Meta ad campaigns and builds landing pages.
If you are a developer, need many networks or want to own your stack, Postiz is a strong pick. If you run a business and want finished ads made and published without running anything yourself, Adly is built for you. Prices were checked in September 2026.
