Buffer has been running longer than Zoomies has existed, with the support organization, mobile apps, and boring reliability that come with that. There is no way to ship your way to a track record.
Comparison
Zoomies vs Buffer
Buffer is a mature, well-liked scheduler: bring finished content, queue it across many networks. The honest difference is direction: Buffer starts after your content exists; Zoomies exists because making the content is the hard part. Buffer details are based on their public site.

Against us
Where Buffer is the better buy.
We cover TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook, and that is the entire list. If LinkedIn, X, Threads, or Pinterest carry your pipeline, Buffer does something we do not do at all.
Their free tier and per-channel pricing beat us on cost when you are not buying generation. Paying us for drafts you were never going to use is a bad trade.
Some founders do. If the blank page is not the part that kills your cadence, a generation tool is answering a question you did not ask.
Verdict
The honest read.
If you already produce content and need wide multi-network scheduling, Buffer remains excellent. If your bottleneck is that the short-form content does not exist yet, a scheduler cannot fix that. Zoomies makes the content, then does the scheduling for the feeds that matter for it.

Questions worth asking
Can I use Zoomies and Buffer together?
Yes. Every Zoomies export is watermark-free, so you can approve in Zoomies and distribute through any scheduler you like, though scheduling inside Zoomies keeps attribution intact.
Does Zoomies publish directly to TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube?
Zoomies schedules and publishes through official platform APIs. Your workspace only shows channels whose official connection is approved and enabled, and nothing publishes without a human approving the post first.
How does Zoomies pricing work?
Payments are off during the private beta, and every workspace uses the Free allowance of three finished posts once. Starter, Growth, and Studio prices stay public as planned post-beta tiers so people can tell us which pace fits. No card or paid subscription is created during the beta.
