What is PostCrab and how does it work?
PostCrab is an automated multi-channel content distribution engine. Rather than logging into multiple accounts and copying content across tabs, PostCrab lets you write or upload once and broadcast simultaneously to Telegram channels, Discord servers, Bluesky, X (Twitter), and WordPress blogs. It includes Claude AI copy adaptation, Google Sheets/CSV drip queues, and failure retries.
How does PostCrab differ from traditional social media schedulers?
Traditional schedulers hit you with hard limits and expensive upgrades just for a few extra posts. PostCrab uses a hybrid billing model: we offer generous free tiers (e.g. 100 posts/month on Pro), and once you exceed them, you don't hit a wall. Instead, you instantly switch to pay-as-you-go using your Crypto Wallet balance for any overages. You only pay for what you actually use.
How do I connect my Telegram Channel or Group?
Connecting Telegram takes under 60 seconds. Simply create a bot with @BotFather on Telegram, paste the Bot Token into your PostCrab Connections tab, add your Bot as an Administrator to your channel or group, and input your @channel_username or numeric Chat ID. Click "Verify Connection" and send an instant live test message.
How do Discord webhook connections work?
In your Discord server settings, navigate to Integrations → Webhooks, create a new webhook for your target channel, and copy the Webhook URL. Paste this URL into PostCrab with optional custom bot names and avatars. PostCrab automatically converts your broadcast into rich, formatted Discord embeds.
How do I connect Bluesky Social?
PostCrab connects directly to the decentralized AT Protocol. Enter your Bluesky handle (e.g. yourhandle.bsky.social) and generate an App Password in your Bluesky Settings → Privacy and Security → App Passwords. Using an App Password ensures you never have to share your primary account password.
How does WordPress + Yoast SEO publishing work?
PostCrab connects securely using WordPress REST API and Application Passwords. In your WordPress Admin, go to Users → Profile, create an Application Password, and paste it into PostCrab along with your site URL. When broadcasting articles, PostCrab automatically assigns custom slugs, categories, tags, and injects Yoast SEO focus keyphrases and meta descriptions.
How does the AI Copywriting feature assist my posts?
Our AI composer (powered by Claude AI) analyzes your core message or blog link and generates platform-specific variations. It formats concise text with hashtags for X, creates engaging markdown copy with call-to-action buttons for Telegram, and structures clean paragraphs with subheaders for WordPress.
What are Spreadsheet Drip Queues?
Spreadsheet Drip Queues allow you to manage your social media pipeline in Google Sheets or CSV files. Upload your spreadsheet with titles, bodies, and images, configure a drip interval (e.g. 1 post every 45 minutes), and PostCrab's background worker will syndicate each row sequentially without triggering spam rate limits.
Which cryptocurrencies are supported for wallet deposits?
Through our crypto payment integration, you can deposit using USDT (TRC-20, ERC-20, BEP-20, Polygon), Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Litecoin (LTC), TON, and many other leading cryptocurrencies. Deposits are credited automatically with real-time exchange rate conversion.
Do my PostCrab credits expire?
No! PostCrab wallet credits never expire. You can fund your account once and use your credits over weeks, months, or years at your own pace without any recurring penalties or inactivity fees.
How are my API keys and connection tokens secured?
Security is our top priority. Every Telegram bot token, Discord webhook URL, Bluesky credential, and WordPress application password is encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM (Galois/Counter Mode) encryption with individual cryptographic initialization vectors (IVs). Even in the event of a raw database breach, your credentials cannot be decrypted without the isolated master key.
Do I need coding skills to use PostCrab?
Not at all. PostCrab is designed with a user-friendly, intuitive dashboard. Setting up a connection typically involves just copy-pasting an API key or webhook URL. You don't need to write any code to schedule or automate your posts.
Can I manage multiple accounts for the same platform?
Absolutely. You can connect multiple Twitter accounts, Discord servers, Telegram channels, or WordPress sites within the same PostCrab workspace and select exactly which ones you want to broadcast to for each post.
Is there a limit to how many posts I can schedule?
No strict limits. With our pay-as-you-go credit system, you can schedule as many posts as you have credits for. If you run out of credits, you can instantly top up your wallet. Our backend manages API rate limits automatically to ensure your posts are delivered without failure.
