Mastodon Scheduling and Analytics Tools
Fedica's Mastodon tools bring free scheduling, cross-platform publishing, and comprehensive analytics into one connected account. Built for social media managers and agencies, creators, and Mastodon users in general, Fedica schedules Mastodon posts and polls for free, then helps you understand who's engaging, segment your followers, and track who follows and unfollows you.
About Mastodon
What Is Mastodon?
Mastodon is a decentralized, open-source social network built on the ActivityPub protocol, part of the wider Fediverse of interoperable social apps. Instead of one company running the whole platform, independent servers interoperate to form a single global network, so you can follow accounts on any Mastodon server from a single account - no single company owns it, and it's developed by a non-profit, free to use, copy, study, and change. There's no algorithm and no ads: posts appear in chronological order, with support for polls, content warnings, and custom emojis.
Publishing
Schedule Mastodon Posts
Scheduling Mastodon posts and Pipelines costs nothing on Fedica's Free plan, all from one Content Calendar. Publish images, video, and toots in bulk to drafts, a Pipeline, or your calendar, at any interval you choose.
- Images, video, and toots: bulk-publish to Mastodon from one calendar.
- Pipelines: separate content streams, each with its own schedule, so different topics or campaigns don't get mixed together - see Fedica's Pipelines.
- Bulk upload: add pictures and videos to drafts, a Pipeline, or your calendar, at any interval you choose.
- Boosts: schedule Mastodon boosts right from within the composer.
Publisher
Publish Smarter with Fedica's Mastodon Publisher
Mastodon threads and polls schedule alongside your other connected platforms, all from Fedica's one publisher.
- Cross-platform threads: schedule threads to X (Twitter), Bluesky, Mastodon, and Threads together.
- Free polls: compose one poll and publish it to X (Twitter), Mastodon, Threads, and LinkedIn, at no cost - no paid plan required.
- AI-assisted writing: get writing optimization suggestions, tone adjustment, and grammar correction with AI-Optimized Publishing, available to Fedica's paid plans members.
Inbox
Mastodon Unified Inbox
Fedica's Social Media Inbox brings Mastodon mentions, replies and private messages into one place alongside your other connected platforms, so you don't miss a conversation that moved on while you were checking another app.
- Full thread context: see the whole conversation, not just the single line that tagged you.
- Clear triage: Unresolved, New, and All tabs show exactly what still needs your attention.
- Team collaboration: assign any conversation to a teammate, and add internal notes your team can see but the public can't.
- Mastodon DMs included: Fedica supports both mentions and direct messages for Mastodon, alongside X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, and Bluesky.
Analytics
Mastodon Engagement Dashboard
Fedica's engagement dashboard shows you who's engaging with your Mastodon content and how, so you can build messaging that actually lands.
- Engager identification: see the people behind your likes, replies, and boosts.
- Content Segmentation: group your Mastodon posts to see which topics and formats perform.
- Filterable Metrics: filter engagement by keyword, location, or metric to find what's working.
Follower Analysis
Mastodon Follower Analysis
Engagement, mapping, demographic data, personas, and your most influential followers: Follower Analysis covers all of it for your Mastodon audience, one of the best-covered platforms in the product.
- Demographics and personas: gender, occupation, age, and language, sorted into personas.
- Most influential and most engaged followers: know exactly who to prioritize.
- Other-account analysis: common followers and analysis of other Mastodon, X (Twitter), and Bluesky accounts.
Followers Map
Mastodon Followers Map
See where your Mastodon audience actually lives with Fedica's followers map, broken down by country, state or province, and city, as an interactive map or chart. Use that location data to plan region-specific content, campaigns, and events. The followers map is available on Fedica's paid plans; it isn't included on the Free plan.
Demographics
Mastodon Follower Demographics
Fedica's Social Media Demographics breaks down your Mastodon followers by language, occupation, gender, age, and location, so you know exactly who's in your audience.
- Five-way breakdown: language, occupation, gender, age, and location, in one report.
- Target smarter: identify who's genuinely interested in your brand.
- Also covers 6 other platforms: Bluesky, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, Threads, and X (Twitter).
Follower Segmentation
Mastodon Follower Segmentation
Fedica's Sort Followers tool lets you stack filters to segment your Mastodon audience down to the exact group worth acting on.
- Stack any combination of filters: demographics, activity, and more, at once.
- Categorize and export: turn a sorted group into a list, export it, or feed it into a Pipeline.
- Also works on 3 other platforms: X (Twitter), Bluesky, and Pixelfed.
Track
Track Mastodon Follows and Unfollows
Fedica's follower tracking shows exactly who unfollowed you on Mastodon, and flags whether they left on their own, deactivated, or got suspended.
- Email briefs: daily, weekly, or monthly updates on who unfollowed you and who's new.
- Follow history: a running history of every follow and unfollow from the moment you connect.
- Same platform coverage as Sort Followers: X (Twitter), Bluesky, Mastodon, and Pixelfed.
Why Fedica
Why Use Fedica for Mastodon
A long time advocate of the Fediverse, Fedica added Mastodon support in November 2022, the first social media management tool to do so - see Fedica's original Mastodon announcement. Mastodon's API makes it possible to have deeper integration than other platforms, which is why Mastodon is covered by the majority of tools within Fedica. Scheduling, Pipelines, free polls, engagement analytics, and a full follower toolkit (Follower Analysis, a followers map, demographics, and segmentation) all sit in one workflow, so you're not juggling separate tools - alongside 13 other platforms. Threads schedule to X (Twitter), Bluesky, Threads, and Mastodon; polls schedule to X (Twitter), Threads, LinkedIn, and Mastodon. Follower tracking keeps you informed on who follows and unfollows you, with email briefs.
