No status page, changelog, security contact or free API access was found, and each account has a single key with full access.\n\n**Upload-Post API + MCP.** Free plan with 2 profiles and 10 uploads a month, no card. One account key with no scopes, and the MCP's OAuth grants a single mcp.full scope.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Blotato\n\n1. Call `blotato_list_accounts` or `GET /v2/users/me/accounts` first, and fetch `pageId` or `boardId` before posting to a Facebook Page, LinkedIn company Page or Pinterest\n2. Keep the `postSubmissionId` and poll the status until `published`, `scheduled` or `failed`. It is a receipt, not proof of publication\n3. After a timeout on a create call, list existing posts before sending again, because there is no idempotency key\n4. Do not generate an API key on a trial account unless the owner accepts the Starter charge\n5. Keep REST bodies and MCP arguments apart. REST nests `post.content` and `post.target`, and the MCP tool takes flat arguments\n\n### Upload-Post API + MCP\n\n1. Send `Authorization: Apikey \u003ckey\u003e` on REST. The MCP also takes Bearer\n2. Use async_upload=true for video, then poll the upload status endpoint every 5 to 60 seconds, not faster\n3. Send an Idempotency-Key on every upload so a timed-out retry doesn't post twice\n4. Check each platform's success flag in results, because one network failing doesn't stop the others\n5. Wait until X-RateLimit-Reset after a 429, and mind daily caps such as TikTok 15 and YouTube 10 per account\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Blotato or Upload-Post API + MCP?\n\nUpload-Post API + MCP scores 58.7 (C) on agent readiness against Blotato's 46.1 (D), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Do Blotato and Upload-Post API + MCP need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Blotato and Upload-Post API + MCP without installing anything?\n\nYes.
