Threads is Meta's text-based social platform, built to complement Instagram. With direct integration into the Instagram ecosystem, Threads gives you access to an engaged audience that already follows visual creators and brands.
Since Threads shares your Instagram audience, it's a natural extension of your social media presence. MakePost lets you schedule Threads posts alongside your Instagram, X, and LinkedIn content — all from the same dashboard.
How It Works
Connect your Threads account
Link your Threads account (connected to your Instagram) with one click. No separate developer setup needed.
Write your post
Compose text posts with optional images. Threads supports up to 500 characters — perfect for concise updates, announcements, and conversations.
Schedule and cross-post
Schedule your Threads post and simultaneously publish to Instagram, X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, and more — all from the same screen.
