About BrightBean Studio
BrightBean Studio is an open-source, self-hostable social media management platform built for creators, agencies and SMBs. It does what Sendible, SocialPilot, or ContentStudio do, but free and without per-seat, per-channel, or per-workspace limits. Plan, compose, schedule, approve, publish, and monitor content across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Threads, Bluesky, Google Business Profile, and Mastodon from a single multi-workspace dashboard.
It's for people managing many client accounts under one roof who'd rather own their social stack than pay $100–300/month to a SaaS vendor. Every feature is available to every user. No paid tier, no feature gate, no upsell.
You can deploy it with a one-click button on Heroku, Render, or Railway, run it on your own VPS via Docker, or run it locally. All platform integrations talk directly to the official first-party APIs using your own developer credentials, so there's no aggregator middleman, no vendor lock-in, and no third party sitting between you and your data.
