Posting to Facebook groups by hand vs with Group Posting
At 3 minutes a post, 150 group posts a week is about 7.5 hours by hand.
Copy, paste, switch group, repeat. Manual group posting works — until it eats your week, caps your reach at a handful of groups, and quietly loses you the leads you never saw. Here's what changes when you automate it at a steady pace.
- No card for the free plan
- Never asks for your password
- Runs in your own browser
Group Posting
The real composer, simplified. The post and groups are examples.
Why a browser extension at all? Meta retired the public Facebook Groups API, including publish_to_groups, on 22 April 2024. Group Posting Pro uses your existing Facebook browser session in two ways: Direct API posting sends authenticated requests to Facebook’s internal web GraphQL endpoints; Classic DOM posting fills and submits the visible composer. Neither method uses the retired public Groups API. Group permissions and Facebook’s limits still apply. What the Groups API deprecation broke →
Manual posting isn't free — it's just off the invoice
At an illustrative 3 minutes a post and €50 an hour, 150 submissions a week is about 32 hours or €1,600/month before accounting for remaining work. These are assumptions, not measured customer savings. Plus is €5.75/mo billed yearly (€69) for unlimited posting and simple schedules; Pro, from €9.92/mo, adds the AI writer and Lead Radar.

Do less, reach more, keep a steady pace
Your week back
Write once, schedule a looping campaign, and stop babysitting the copy-paste. Hours go back into closing, not posting.
Reach you can't do manually
Every group on your list, on a paced schedule, instead of the few you'd manage by hand — consistently, not just on the days you remember.
Unique posts, automatically
Spintax on every plan, and on Pro an AI writer that drafts variations for you. The wording varies across groups, which reads better to members and moderators than the same text pasted twenty times.
Leads you'd have missed
You can't read every group all day. Lead Radar (Pro) checks up to 25 of your groups every 15–60 minutes while Chrome is open and flags posts that match your keywords on every check, with an AI reply draft.
Paced, not rushed
Rushing dozens of posts by hand in one sitting is a burst too. Group Posting spaces posts with randomised gaps, a minimum gap that grows with your daily volume and a risk check before you start a run by hand. No tool can promise zero risk.
Common questions
Isn't automated posting riskier than doing it by hand?
How much time does it actually save?
Can I still review posts before they go out?
Questions about posting to multiple groups
How do I post in multiple Facebook groups?
Write and review a post, choose groups you have joined where that content is permitted, then start the run yourself. Keep Chrome open and your computer awake. Check each result: a submission awaiting administrator approval is not a published post, and an unconfirmed result needs inspection before retrying.
How does Milo help me plan and approve posts?
Milo helps prepare a plan and drafts. Today shows progress, Posts holds drafts and the schedule, and Plan holds strategy and group choices. Review the facts, wording and group rules before approving. Approve all approves eligible drafts; it does not schedule or start posting. Scheduling the week requires a separate action and confirmation. Planning is free; running a Milo plan requires Pro. Lite cannot activate a schedule.
What happens when a group does not allow my post?
Groups marked not allowed are excluded from the plan. Groups with unknown rules require your explicit confirmation before their drafts can be approved. Approve all leaves unresolved rule checks for you to review. Facebook permissions and administrator approval still apply, and no tool can guarantee publication or prevent account restrictions.
