Whenever you consider automating social posting or building a social media integration into your product, you quickly run into the reality of how
fragmented it all is. Instagram needs
approval, TikTok has a different approval flow, and you're dealing with this for every single platform. Zerno
fixes this. One API, 15 platforms. Let me show you how it works. Zerno is a unified social media API, one rest endpoint to post, schedule, promote, and
engage across all major platforms. It's not a dashboard like Buffer or Hootsuite. It's an infrastructure. You
Hootsuite. It's an infrastructure. You
plug it into your own app, your automation, or your AI agent. And it's
designed to be genuinely easy to integrate, whether you're writing code yourself, using cloud code, or building with an AI coding assistant. The API is
clean, the docs are clear, and you can be making real API calls in minutes.
Zerno handles the device approvals, the OAuth flows, the platform-specific formatting, the quota limits. You just
make the call. 15 platforms: Instagram, TikTok X Facebook LinkedIn YouTube WhatsApp Threads Pinterest Reddit Blue Sky, Telegram, Snapchat, Google
Business, and Discord. Plus, ad support for Meta, Google, LinkedIn, TikTok, Pinterest, and X. And Zerno is an official partner with all the major
ones. Connecting accounts takes one
ones. Connecting accounts takes one endpoint. You get an authentication URL,
endpoint. You get an authentication URL, user authorizes, done. No developer app, no waiting for approvals, one flow for every platform. And here's what posting
every platform. And here's what posting looks like. One call, text, images,
looks like. One call, text, images, video, or carousel to all platforms simultaneously. Zerno auto-formats the
simultaneously. Zerno auto-formats the content for each platform requirement.
You can also customize the copy per platform if you need different messaging on Twitter or LinkedIn, for example. And
beyond posting, here's what's included.
Scheduling and queue. Pass a timestamp and time zone to schedule any post or set up recurring time slots and let Zornia auto fill them. Analytics API.
Impressions reach engagement followers tracking unified across all platforms from one endpoint. Inbox. Read
and reply to comments, DMs, and Google Business Review via API. There's also a comment to DM automation that moves public conversations to private. Ads
API. Boost posts or create campaigns across six ad network programmatically.
Webhooks. Get pinged in real time when a post goes live, fails, or when a new comment or DM comes in. No polling. MCP
Server. This is the one for AI builders.
Zornia ships an MCP server with more than 280 tools. Add it to Cloud Desktop or Cloud Code and your AI agent can post, schedule, read analytics, and
manage DMs using plain English. No extra
code needed. It also works with Cursor and any other MCP compatible client. If
you're already building with AI tools, this is the fastest integration path by far. And if you're using AI coding
far. And if you're using AI coding tools, the docs are written to be LLM friendly. You can drop the docs URL into
friendly. You can drop the docs URL into Cloud Code, Cursor, or any AI assistant and it will understand the API structure immediately. There's also a full open
immediately. There's also a full open API spec if you want to point your tools directly at it. If you'd rather skip code entirely, Zornia works with n8n,
Make, and Zapier. There's even a CLI and the MCP server means you can literally just tell Cloud Desktop to schedule a post and it handles the API call for
you. Pricing is paper account. No tiers,
