One calendar. Ten networks.
Create, schedule, publish, inbox, analytics — Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, TikTok, YouTube, Threads, Bluesky, Google Business Profile. The product is API work and an approval state machine, not a tweet composer demo.
What shipped, matching the live tool: Angular web app, server jobs that call each network’s official API, Canva / Unsplash / GIPHY embeds, AI caption/image helpers, workspaces for agencies, PDF analytics. Data in PostgreSQL. Workers in Node.js.

What we shipped
Web SaaS. Networks are APIs, not tabs.
There is no native hunter-style mobile app as the core product. The work is the Angular workspace and the publisher that does not miss 09:00.

The problem
Five tabs is how a Reel misses Tuesday.
Before SocialBee-class tooling, the church comms manager logged into Instagram, then Facebook, then Canva, then a spreadsheet of “best times.” Client feedback was a Slack screenshot at 08:57.
- No source of truthThe live grid and the plan disagreed.
- No approvalIntern published the wrong Easter graphic.
- Analytics in six CSVsThe pastor got a screenshot, not a PDF.

Technology (from the live product)
Angular, official APIs, PostgreSQL, Node.js workers.
Live SocialBee is an Angular web product (public stack detectors) talking to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, TikTok, YouTube, Threads, Bluesky, and Google Business Profile. Canva, Unsplash, and GIPHY are integrations, not screenshots. We store posts and tokens in PostgreSQL; workers run in Node.js.
