Limits and allowances

What is included, what is metered, and what happens when a post cannot go out.

Connected accounts

2 included

Every workspace includes 2 connected social accounts at no cost. There is no trial clock on them and no card required to reach that number. Connected accounts are the only thing counted — posts are not metered on any plan.

The allowance is per user, not per workspace. A second workspace grants no extra accounts, so there is nothing to arbitrage by splitting your work across several.

Crossing the allowance

Connecting one more is a purchase rather than a refusal. What happens next depends on whether we already have a card:

  • A card on file: the account connects immediately and the subscription quantity adjusts in the background. No checkout, no interruption.
  • No card yet: the account is parked and you are sent to a checkout. Abandon it and the account is released within 48 hours, along with the access tokens it was holding.
  • Disconnecting an account releases the seat and credits the remainder of the period.

The self-serve ceiling

Past 3,000 connected accounts, self-serve stops and the answer becomes a conversation rather than a price. Nobody has reached it.

Media uploads

Two ceilings apply to anything you upload, before the platform gets a say:

  • Images up to 10 MB
  • Video and PDF up to 100 MB
These are Antwork's limits. Each platform then applies its own, which are usually tighter and sometimes much larger. Exact figures per network.

Post statuses

A post moves through four states. Three of them are routine; the fourth is the one worth reading.

StatusWhat it means
draftWritten and saved, going nowhere until you schedule or publish it. Free, unlimited, and editable.
scheduledQueued with a delivery time. Nothing has reached the platform yet, and the time can still be changed.
publishedDelivered to the platform. Metrics start arriving within a few hours.
failedThe platform refused it, or a check refused it before the platform saw it. The post is kept, with the reason on it.

When a post fails

The reason is stored on the post and shown in the app. A failure does not consume quota and does not retry on its own — most are content the platform will refuse every time, such as a video over that network's duration ceiling, and retrying without changing it produces the same answer.
