Upload-Post Alternative — API + Dashboard + Live Stream
Upload-Post is an API-first tool with native n8n/Make nodes and a Python SDK. CodivUpload adds what they lack: a full visual dashboard, an official TypeScript SDK, MCP protocol for AI agents, and 24/7 live streaming. Here's the honest breakdown.
Honest note: Upload-Post supports 10 platforms (including Reddit, which we don't cover). They have a published Python SDK on PyPI, an official n8n node included by default in n8n, and a community-built Make.com module. Their Basic plan starts at $16/mo — $4 less than our Starter. We now ship an official TypeScript SDK (npm install codivupload) and an official Python SDK (pip install codivupload). We believe in earning your choice with facts, not spin.

Where CodivUpload pulls ahead
The gaps that matter for teams shipping content at volume.
Dashboard they never built
Upload-Post is designed for developers comfortable calling APIs from code or n8n workflows. CodivUpload gives every team member — developer to social media manager — a purpose-built interface to draft, schedule, and track posts without touching a terminal.
24/7 live streaming (Pro+)
Stream looping video to YouTube around the clock from a simple URL. Upload-Post has no streaming capability at any tier. This is the feature media companies, lofi channels, and always-on brands ask for most.
MCP protocol — AI-native posting
Connect Claude, GPT, or any MCP-compatible agent directly to your workspace. Trigger scheduled posts, check queue status, or publish content from inside a chat session. Upload-Post has no MCP support.
Analytics you can actually see
Upload-Post surfaces analytics only through API endpoints — you parse JSON, you build charts. CodivUpload shows post performance, platform reach, and publishing history in a visual dashboard with CSV export.
REST API with 50+ per-platform parameters
Both tools expose a REST API. CodivUpload's API supports 50+ per-platform override parameters — thumbnail URL, first comment, privacy level, short-form aspect ratio — giving developers precise control over how each post renders on each network.
When Upload-Post might be the right call
We'd rather you pick the right tool than pick us by default.
You need Reddit posting
Upload-Post supports 10 platforms including Reddit — a platform CodivUpload doesn't currently cover. If Reddit is part of your daily content workflow, that's a real gap on our side.
You prefer Upload-Post's established Python SDK
Both platforms now publish official Python SDKs on PyPI. Upload-Post has had theirs longer (pip install upload-post, v2.0.0) with a more mature ecosystem. CodivUpload's Python SDK (pip install codivupload) is newly released. If you need battle-tested Python tooling with more community examples, their head start matters.
You use n8n and want zero-config setup
Upload-Post has an official n8n community node (n8n-nodes-upload-post) that ships with n8n by default — no installation step. CodivUpload works with n8n via the HTTP Request node, which requires setting up the endpoint URL and API key manually. One extra configuration step, but functionally equivalent.
You use Make.com and prefer a dedicated module
Upload-Post has a community-built Make.com module with 5 dedicated operations (upload photo, video, text, list profiles, custom API call). CodivUpload integrates with Make via the HTTP module. The Upload-Post module is community-maintained, not an official Make partner app — worth noting for long-term reliability.
You only need API access and want the cheapest entry
Upload-Post's Basic plan is $16/mo for 5 profiles with unlimited uploads. CodivUpload's Starter is $20/mo but includes 10 profiles plus the full dashboard. If you genuinely don't need a UI and 5 profiles is enough, they're $4/mo cheaper at the entry tier.
