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.

Here is how Group Posting compares on each, with competitor prices checked on 28 Oct 2026 and feature notes from 9 Oct 2026. | What matters | Group Posting | Typical alternatives | | --- | --- | --- | | Where it posts from | Your own browser. [Your Facebook password, cookies and session never leave your computer]() | A browser extension, a Windows program or a cloud service, depending on the tool | | Free plan | [Lite](): 5 group-posts a day, free forever | Varies: MultiGroupPoster lists 6 group posts in total, once, on its new site and on the old FB Group Bulk Poster site (checked 31 Oct 2026); fewfeed.net calls its tools free; FBGroupPoster lists 6 posts in total, once (both checked 31 Oct 2026). See the [FB Group Bulk Poster transition](). PilotPoster offers a $0 one-day trial (checked 28 Oct 2026 from the linked official sources). | | AI content | In Pro: [a quick tone or your own saved voice](). Lite and Plus get 5 AI uses in total | PilotPoster writes from a prompt and spins variations; MaherPost lists AI copy. PilotPoster describes Auto AI as an upgrade; its price is not on its pricing page (checked 31 Oct 2026 from their sites) | | Finding leads | [Lead Radar]() (Pro): periodic keyword checks with a 15, 30 or 60-minute setting while Chrome is open, with AI reply drafts | MaherPost lists Lead Radar.

Group Posting adds an AI writer, multi-step campaigns, Lead Radar keyword checks and agency plans, and it has a free plan with 5 group-posts a day. If you only need plain posting on the smallest monthly budget, a simpler tool may suit you.

Yes, with Plus (€69 a year) or Pro. Both add one-time, daily and weekly schedules; the free Lite plan cannot activate a schedule. Group Posting posts from your own signed-in Chrome or Edge, one group at a time, so the browser must be open and the computer awake when a schedule runs. If you only post in groups you admin, Facebook’s own scheduler may be enough. ### Why can’t Buffer or Hootsuite post to Facebook groups? Meta retired the public Facebook Groups API and its publish\_to\_groups permission on 22 April 2024, so scheduling tools that publish through Meta’s API can no longer publish to groups. Buffer now offers notification publishing for groups: it reminds you and you finish the post by hand. Hootsuite’s help lists Facebook Pages, not groups (checked 9 October 2026). Group Posting runs in your own browser session instead of the retired API. ### How do I post to many Facebook groups safely? No tool can promise zero risk. Start with a small run in groups you have joined where promotion is allowed, read each group’s rules, vary the wording instead of repeating one text everywhere, and keep the pacing on: Group Posting posts one group at a time with a pause between groups. Warm-up, night mode and activity checks help manage posting but do not guarantee protection from account restrictions. Check every result: a post awaiting administrator approval is not published, and an unconfirmed result needs inspection before you retry. ### Can Group Posting post as my Facebook Page? Yes, where the group permits Pages to participate. Both posting modes can post as your profile or as a Page you manage, so choose the identity before you start. A group that does not allow Pages will not publish them, and you check the result for each group. ### What does Group Posting cost, and is there a free plan? Yes, Lite is free: 5 group-posts a day and five lifetime AI uses, no card. Plus is €69 a year. Pro is €24 a month, €39 a quarter or €119 a year, with an introductory first-month offer shown on the pricing page. Agency plans start at €199 a month. VAT is handled at checkout, and Plus and Pro are refundable while the activation key is unused. [Get help with a result]() · [Compare current plans]()
