Where Quetzal is different

The week arrives planned and written

Quetzal reads your website and brand kit, plans the week and writes every post in your voice. You open a finished week instead of an empty calendar.

Designed posts and carousels in your brand

Quetzal designs posts, carousels and stories in your colours and type, so every account looks like one brand. Designed images come on every plan, and posts from your own photos are unlimited.

Finished reels, ready to publish

From Pro, Quetzal makes AI reels for you: a presenter says a script written from your brand, with captions timed to each word. Each reel publishes like any other post.

Priced per brand, with seats included

A plan covers one brand with its accounts and its team (4 people on Pro, more on larger plans). Agencies pay per client brand on one invoice, with a discount from the third client.
