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.
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.
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.
Every post is measured, and what worked on your own accounts shapes what comes next. No report to read.

With Postly you set up Auto Post rules, from a prompt, a feed or a video, and choose how much to review. With Quetzal you connect your accounts and the whole week is planned and made for you, then held for approval until you switch on full autopilot.

Yes, and it is a natural split: Postly for blogs, email, messaging apps and the CRM, Quetzal for the six social networks. Each publishes through the networks' official connections.
