Postloom dashboard with job status, live countdown timers and bulk actions for the auto post publish pipeline.
Postloom is an auto post creator and auto post publish plugin for WordPress. Give it a keyword, a topic list or a product document, and it researches the subject, writes the article with your own AI key, fills in the SEO fields, adds a featured image, and then saves the post as a draft, publishes it immediately or schedules it on a visual calendar. When the post goes live, Postloom shares it to your connected social accounts.
Most auto post plugins start after the post already exists. Schedule Press, Social Post Flow schedule or share finished posts. AI writers AutoPost AI create drafts and leave the publishing to you. Postloom covers both halves in one plugin: it creates the post, then handles the auto post publish side with an editorial calendar, a weekly slot scheduler and a missed schedule watchdog. You bring your own API key from Google Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, DeepSeek, X.AI Grok or OpenRouter, so there are no article credits and no monthly content subscription.
The includes AI post creation, the Instant Creator Studio, the editorial calendar, the review queue, the weekly slot scheduler, the missed schedule watchdog, SEO field filling, AI and stock images, and auto publishing to X (Twitter), Facebook with eight more social networks, custom platform templates, instant multi channel sharing and editable AI skills.
Postloom turns a keyword or a rough note into a finished article without leaving the WordPress dashboard.
The auto post publish side is where most AI writers stop. Postloom keeps going.
When a post is published, or when a scheduled post reaches its time, Postloom sends it to the social accounts you connected.
Search the WordPress.org directory for an auto post creator or an auto post publish plugin and the results fall into three groups: social auto posters, scheduling tools and AI blog writers. Postloom is the only one in this comparison that does the writing and the publishing in the same plugin.
SchedulePress is the closest match on the publishing side. Its free version has a drag and drop calendar, a dashboard widget and social sharing to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram, Medium, Threads and more, one profile per network. Its Auto Scheduler, Missed Schedule Handler, Manual Scheduler and Advanced Schedule are Pro features, and it does not write articles. Postloom includes the weekly slot scheduler and the missed schedule watchdog in the free plugin and adds the article generation SchedulePress leaves to you.
WP2Social Auto Publish sends posts to Facebook only, with category and post type filters and message formats. Social Media Auto Poster for Buffer and for Hootsuite, both from WP Zinc, add posts to a Buffer or Hootsuite queue and need an account with that service, and Instagram and Pinterest need their Pro versions. Social Post Flow supports many networks but needs a paid Social Post Flow subscription. Bit Social connects a wide range of networks, though its free version covers Facebook and LinkedIn profiles, and the calendar, WooCommerce sharing and AI prompts are Pro. None of these plugins creates the post itself. Postloom writes the article first, then publishes and shares it with your own accounts and your own AI key.
Auto Post Publisher solves a narrower problem: it publishes scheduled posts that missed their time and checks when someone visits the site. Postloom includes a missed schedule watchdog as one part of a larger publishing workflow.
On the AI side, AutoPost AI creates scheduled drafts but, according to its own FAQ, does not publish them for you. Postomatic starts with a small set of free credits, and AutoArticle works on a monthly credit plan. Postloom has no credit system. You pay your AI provider directly, and you can use a free tier key such as Google Gemini.
So if you want a free auto post creator and auto post publish engine that writes, schedules, publishes and shares from one dashboard, Postloom is built for that job. If you only need to push existing posts to a single network, the focused plugins above may be enough.
Scheduled jobs, drafts, logs and knowledge base files are stored in your own WordPress database and uploads folder. AI providers receive data only when you add a key and run a generation. Social networks receive data only for accounts you connect. A setting called delete data on uninstall removes the plugin tables, options and uploaded files when you choose it, and leaves them in place otherwise.
This plugin connects to external services only for the features you configure. Nothing is sent to a service you do not use.
When the WordPress AI Client is available (WordPress 7.0 and later), Claude, OpenAI and Gemini can run through WordPress Connectors under Settings, Connectors. A direct API key is used only when the AI Client is not detected or when you choose to enter your own key. DeepSeek, Grok and OpenRouter are always direct integrations.
