Because my accounts are connected and Hubspot is able to track my analytics, I would like a tool that suggests a time to post based off the platform and day of week. Schedulers like HeyOrca, Sprinklr, Hootsuite and more suggest a time based off your platform’s peak engagement time. I would rather post at 1:22 on a Tuesday on Instagram because that is what’s best based off my analytics than post every day at 11:00am.

I agree! I noticed that you posted this 3 years ago and we still don’t have this feature. I used to use Sprout Social for social scheduling and they had suggested post times based on our performance on any given platform, which was incredibly helpful. If HubSpot had that feature - for all major platforms, as you suggest - I genuinely think it would greatly improve our social engagement stats.

This would be a great use case for an AI-powered feature. HubSpot has all the historical data and it would be great to know if our performance shows time-based patterns. This feature is part of many dedicated social media management platforms; if HubSpot wants to compete with those, suggested post times based on audience engagement analytics is a must-have feature.
