Posty vs. Canva
Canva is first of all a design tool: next to strong image and video tools it also gives a content calendar. Posty comes into the picture when you would schedule to several platforms from one editor, or leave calendar management to an AI agent.
Build your audience, grow your business
Plan and schedule posts for 12+ platforms from one calendar. Post consistently to grow your audience and help more potential customers find you.

What Canva does well
- Canva's image editor is one of the strongest on the market: millions of templates, brand kits and background removal help with design. You can also cut video, work from UGC templates, and make AI images.
- It can also be used in Hungarian, and you can drop the finished design straight into Content Planner. You do not have to export separately, then upload again somewhere else.
- It also schedules to a Facebook Page, an Instagram business account, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest and Slack. You also get per-channel preview, drafts and a drag-and-drop calendar.
- The free plan can be used for design, but scheduling needs Canva Pro. For simply managing one Facebook Page and one Instagram account, that is enough for many people.
When should you pick Canva instead?
If you mostly post to Facebook and Instagram, every creative is made in Canva, and you already pay for Pro, it is worth staying with Content Planner. Posty is stronger for multi-platform work: it handles 12+ platforms, and it sends one post to several accounts from one editor. The two also work well together. Design in Canva, schedule in Posty.
Why switch to Posty?
- One post, several platforms. In Canva you can schedule one design to one surface at a time. In Posty you pick all the destination accounts, and you can also write separate copy per platform.
- A wider platform list. Canva handles seven platforms, but TikTok, YouTube and Threads are not among them. From Posty you can post to 12+ social platforms.
- An agent-driven calendar. On the Pro plan you also get an MCP server, a public REST API, the posty CLI and a skill file for AI agents. ChatGPT, Claude or Codex can then write, schedule, move and cancel posts directly.
- Predictable Hungarian billing. Canva bills in dollars, per user. Posty's plan price is in forints, and you get a Hungarian VAT invoice.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need Posty instead of Canva, or next to it?
- Mostly next to it: you make the creative in Canva, then schedule it from Posty to several accounts and platforms. If you only manage one Facebook Page and one Instagram account in Canva Pro, you probably do not need a separate scheduler.
- Which platforms can Canva schedule to?
- Canva handles seven platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest and Slack. It does not schedule to TikTok, YouTube or Threads, while Posty supports 12+ social platforms.
- Can I put the same post in several places from Canva?
- You can schedule one design to one social surface at a time. Posty sends the post to several accounts from one editor, and you can rewrite the copy per platform.
- How much does Posty cost compared with Canva?
- Canva Pro is about $180 a year for one person, billed yearly. That is an indicative price. Posty Alap is 4 990 Ft a month for five social accounts, with unlimited posts, and can be tried free for 7 days.
- Why should I pick Posty over Canva Content Planner?
- Switching is worth it if you manage several platforms, would send one post to several places at once, or would automate the calendar. From the Pro plan your own AI model can work through MCP, the API or the CLI. We left the built-in AI copywriter out on purpose.
Hungarian teams already post this way
„Finally, a scheduler that thinks in Hungarian. Our café's Instagram and Facebook are in one place. I save two hours a week.”
„Tuesday evening I schedule the whole week in half an hour. That's it.”
„I run five brands' accounts on my own. We used to subscribe to three different tools. Posty has everything in one place: scheduling, calendar, analytics. I send the reports straight to management. Nobody comes back with questions. It paid for itself in the first month. I've recommended it to two colleagues since.”
„At our online store, TikTok and Instagram get the same campaign, but Posty fine-tunes the copy per channel. The AI's Hungarian copy is surprisingly good.”
„We post the daily menu to Facebook and Instagram at 9 a.m., automatically. Guests already look forward to it.”
„I connected Posty to Claude. I was a bit worried it would sound robotic. Instead I just tell it what happened this week, and it writes and schedules the posts in my voice. Now I only reply to comments.”
„My portfolio posts itself. I just draw.”
„I used to stress every morning about what to post. Now Posty suggests a time, and I just approve the workout tips. My follower count doubled in three months.”
„Everything we do is seasonal: Mother's Day, graduations, weddings. In calendar view I see the whole month ahead. I upload the bouquet photos once, everywhere.”
„I shoot on weekends, retouch on weekdays. I had no time left to post. With Posty, my galleries finally go out to Instagram and Facebook on their own.”
„Before Black Friday we scheduled 200 posts in advance, across three channels. Not a single one slipped. We've never had a campaign period like this.”
Hungarian pricing, no hidden costs
Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial. We bill in forints and issue a VAT invoice.
