Social Hard Caps Per Network
To protect your connected accounts and stay compliant with each social network, Upload-Post enforces platform hard caps using a rolling 24-hour window. When a cap is reached for a specific account on a given network, further posts to that account/network are rejected until the window rolls over.
- What counts toward the cap: only successful publishes recorded for that account/network in the last 24 hours.
- Scope: per connected account, per social network.
- Scheduled posts: caps are re-checked at execution time; if the cap is already reached, the publish will be rejected then.

What else the verifier checks
- Duplicate/similar content within 48h (per account/network) to reduce spam risk and shadow bans.
- Mention limits to avoid spammy behavior (e.g., excessive mentions or repeating the same handle too frequently).
- Media and content sanity checks evolve over time to align with network guidelines.
