Substack

Draft Substack posts and Notes, then publish from your own browser

Plan newsletter issues and Notes on the same calendar as your social posts. FoPost hands each draft to Substack through its free browser extension while you stay logged in, so your password and session never leave your browser.

A post previewed exactly as Substack will render it, before it publishes

Works alongside

Posts and Notes

Long-form issues and short Notes from one composer.

Extension delivery

The draft opens in Substack, you click publish.

No credentials shared

We never see your password or session.

How it works

Substack has no publishing API, so we built the safe alternative

Tools that promise automatic Substack posting are logging in as you on a server, which breaks Substack’s terms and risks your account. FoPost does it differently: the free browser extension carries your draft into Substack’s own editor while you are logged in, and you press publish.

Free extension

Installs in a minute and works with your existing login.

Nothing stored

No password, API key, or session ever reaches our servers.

Terms-friendly

You publish, the extension just saves the typing.

Writing

One essay, every format it needs to be

Write the issue once with a title, subtitle, Markdown body, and cover image. FoPost then turns the same piece into a Note, a thread for X, and a LinkedIn post, so launch day is one draft instead of five.

AI repurposing

Scheduling

Plan the month, get reminded the morning it ships

Put every issue on the calendar next to your social posts. When a scheduled Substack post is due, FoPost notifies you, the extension opens the draft in Substack, and publishing takes one click.

Growth

Turn every issue into a week of reach

Subscribers come from the places you already post. Use each newsletter as source material: pull the three best lines into Notes, thread the argument on X, and link back to the issue, all drafted from the same text.

Substack questions, answered

How do I connect Substack?

Install the free FoPost browser extension and stay logged into Substack in that browser. There is no OAuth, API key, or password step, because Substack has no publishing API.

Does it publish automatically?

No, by design. The extension opens your draft in Substack’s editor with the title, subtitle, body, and cover filled in, and you click publish. This keeps your account within Substack’s terms.

Can I post Notes too?

Yes. Notes are drafted in the same composer and delivered through the extension the same way as full posts.

What formatting is supported?

Title, subtitle, a Markdown body, and a cover image. Headings, lists, links, and images carry across into the Substack editor.

Can I manage several publications?

Yes. Each Substack publication you are logged into can receive drafts from the extension, and you choose the target per post.

Is there an API for Substack through FoPost?

The FoPost REST API and SDKs can create and schedule Substack drafts, but final delivery always goes through the extension in your browser, since Substack offers no publishing API.
