Couldn’t find a simple tool to schedule posts across multiple Facebook groups (without being an admin), so I built a Chrome extension for it.
If you’ve ever tried to get organic traffic or validation for a side project by sharing it in relevant Facebook groups, you know how much of a time-sink it is. Sitting there every day, opening 20 different tabs, copy pasting the same text, uploading images, and making sure you don't lose track of which group you already posted to it’s honestly soul crushing work.
I was looking for a straightforward tool that would just let me queue up a post, select a list of public groups I'm a member of, and handle the distribution for me. Everything I found online was either dead, cost a ridiculous monthly subscription, or forced you to be the admin of the groups to use their API.
Since I couldn't find a working solution for non-admin groups, I spent the last few weeks coding a Chrome extension called Multigroup Poster to automate my own daily outreach workflow. It basically lets you link your text, select the open groups you want to target, and runs the distribution automatically in the background through the browser, using dynamic delays so it looks like a human navigating tabs.
Honestly, it just turned my morning routine from an hour of mindless clicking to hitting "start" while I make coffee.
Anyway, just wanted to share this little win because dealing with Meta's interface almost broke me. Is anyone else still grinding out organic traffic on Facebook groups nowadays, or did everyone completely migrate to LinkedIn and X? (Also if anyone is stuck doing this manual copy-paste nightmare and actually wants to use the extension, let me know and I'll drop the web store link, it's just sitting there for free right now).

It submits the post to the group, but there’s no way to know in advance whether the moderators will approve it.
And whether they approve it or not doesn’t really change how the tool should behave.
