We are excited to announce a collaboration between **LaunchFast** and **[Orshot](https://orshot.com)**, bringing **social post scheduling** into the LaunchFast starter kits. This integration opens a new category of **content & publishing** integrations alongside the analytics, email, storage, and payment providers you already ship with LaunchFast - so the products you build can help customers **create, render, and schedule** social content without leaving your app.

## Schedule Posts with Orshot

[Orshot](https://orshot.com) is a creative automation platform for generating on-brand images and carousels from templates, then publishing them to connected social accounts. With the [Orshot Publish API](https://orshot.com/features/social-publishing), a single render request can upload your output and post it instantly, save it as a **draft**, or **schedule** it for a future time - across Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, and more.

Your end users connect their own Orshot workspace when they sign up in your product. From there, they manage their linked accounts, captions, and publishing calendar inside Orshot, while your LaunchFast-powered app handles authentication and the handoff into scheduling flows they control.

## Render Once, Publish on Your Terms

Orshot is built for teams that want design consistency at scale: swap text, images, and template fields programmatically, get a PNG (or carousel) back, and optionally attach a `publish` payload so distribution happens in the same API call.

That means your customers can:

- **Publish immediately** after generating a creative from a Studio template
- **Save drafts** for review before anything goes live
- **Schedule posts** with an ISO 8601 time and timezone, per connected account
- **Target multiple platforms** in one request, with per-account status in the response

## A New Integration Category in LaunchFast

Until now, LaunchFast starter kits focused on the infrastructure every SaaS needs: auth, payments, databases, email, storage, analytics, and deployment. **Social & content publishing** is the next lane.

After a user logs into your app, they can wire up Orshot and let **their users** manage scheduling from the moment those users create an Orshot account. You stay in control of your product experience and Orshot handles templates, media, and the social graph.

This is the same philosophy as our analytics integrations (Pirsch, PostHog, Google Analytics, Wide Angle Analytics): pick a best-in-class provider, integrate it cleanly, and let builders swap or extend without rebuilding the wheel.

## Conclusion

This collaboration between LaunchFast and Orshot is a meaningful step toward full-stack SaaS kits that cover **growth**, not just **signup and billing**. By adding social scheduling to the starter kits and introducing a dedicated **content & publishing** integration category - we aim to make it easy for independent creators, entrepreneurs, and small businesses to help their own users plan and publish on social, on brand, and on schedule.
