Ghost vs Repurpose.io: at a glance
What is Ghost?
Ghost lets publishers store their own member details in custom fields.
Ghost now lets publications define custom fields and store member details directly in Ghost. It follows a run of member email automation releases: tier-specific welcome sequences and automation analytics in October, then lifecycle triggers on 4 November that start flows when a paid member changes tier or leaves.
What is Repurpose.io?
Repurpose now pulls images from Google Drive and posts them to seven networks
Repurpose has moved well past video clips. The October release made Google Drive an image source, publishing single images or whole folders as carousels to TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, Pinterest, X and LinkedIn, with captions taken from text files or descriptions. Pinterest, LinkedIn and X gained image support, and agencies got one invite link for onboarding creators. Earlier came photo and carousel repurposing, Facebook as an image source, and a rebuilt onboarding flow.

Ghost
5.0MKT AUTO
Ghost lets publishers store their own member details in custom fields.
◆ Current state
Ghost now lets publications define custom fields and store member details directly in Ghost. It follows a run of member email automation releases: tier-specific welcome sequences and automation analytics in October, then lifecycle triggers on 4 November that start flows when a paid member changes tier or leaves.
◆ Where it's heading
Ghost is building out its member database so automations have more to act on. Custom fields are the data layer the triggers and sequences have been missing, which points toward segmenting and targeting by publisher-defined attributes.
◆ Prediction
Expect automations or email segments to filter on custom fields next; the entry does not say whether fields can be set through signup forms or the API.
Repurpose.io
2.5MKT AUTO
Repurpose now pulls images from Google Drive and posts them to seven networks
◆ Current state
Repurpose has moved well past video clips. The October release made Google Drive an image source, publishing single images or whole folders as carousels to TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, Pinterest, X and LinkedIn, with captions taken from text files or descriptions. Pinterest, LinkedIn and X gained image support, and agencies got one invite link for onboarding creators. Earlier came photo and carousel repurposing, Facebook as an image source, and a rebuilt onboarding flow.
◆ Where it's heading
Format coverage keeps widening from video to the static and mixed posts that make up most social output, and destinations now reach beyond Meta and TikTok. The agency invite link points at a second buyer: teams managing many creators.
◆ Prediction
More agency tooling is a plausible next step after the invite link; the entries do not name upcoming platforms.
