About

Hi, I'm Olver.

Architect by training, builder by default. I made Smart Post Studio because every social scheduler I tried wanted me to upload my videos to their cloud before posting them to mine. That felt backwards.

Why a desktop scheduler?

The video already lives on your computer. Why does it need to make a round trip through someone else's servers before it gets to the platform?

That question kept bothering me. Every social media tool I tried in 2026 was built around the same assumption: you upload your media to their cloud, where it sits indefinitely, gets re-encoded, gets compressed, gets monetized via "AI features" that mostly just shuffle your files between buckets. Then, when the schedule fires, the platform pulls from their server.

That's three steps too many. Your file already exists. The platform has an API. The only thing missing is a desktop app that talks to both.

So I built one.

Smart Post Studio runs on your machine. Your videos stay on your hard drive — full resolution, no re-encoding, no compression artifacts. When the schedule fires, the post goes from your computer to the platform's API. For YouTube, the file travels directly to Google's resumable upload servers — our infrastructure never sees the bytes. For the other platforms, the file passes briefly through a Cloudflare R2 bucket so the platform can fetch it, then auto-deletes within seconds.

No subscription to "store your content." No 500 MB cloud cap. No "your video has been re-encoded to 1080p for our processing pipeline." Just your file, your schedule, your post.

And because the AI Writing Studio runs on Claude Sonnet 4.5, it writes captions natively in 50+ languages — from Spanish and French to Japanese, Arabic, Hindi, and Icelandic. No language toggle, no "premium language" upcharge, no translation layer. Type your topic in your language, the AI mirrors it.

About Sol

You'll see Sol around the site, in our videos, and in the chat assistant on this page. Here's what she is — and what she isn't.

The Founder

Olver Thorarinsson

Real human. Architect. Builder.

I write the code, ship the releases, answer the support emails, and sign every founder communication that comes from Smart Post Studio. If you email support@smartpoststudio.com or message me on LinkedIn, you're talking to me — not a bot, not a persona.

The AI Assistant

Sol

AI character. Brand storyteller. Chat helper.

Sol is an AI — not a person, and we say so explicitly. She's the brand's storyteller (you'll see her in marketing videos, illustrations, and social posts) and powers the chat assistant on this site for 24/7 quick answers about the product. The first message of every chat conversation discloses that she's an AI. For anything that needs a real human, that's me.

The honest stuff

Smart Post Studio is a one-person operation, which means a few things up front:

Support replies come from me directly. Usually within a day. Sometimes within an hour. Occasionally — if you've caught me deep in a release — within two days. There's no support queue, no tier-one bot, no ticket number.

The roadmap is public. The FAQ's "Coming soon" section is what I'm actually working on next, in roughly the order I'm working on it. If you want something that isn't on the list, email me. Real demand reshuffles the queue.

The pricing reflects the model. No VC, no growth-at-all-costs math, no "free tier funded by enterprise revenue we don't have yet." Reasonable price, generous trial, full feature set. See pricing →
