What it does

Buffer queues finished posts and publishes them to several networks on a schedule you set once. Its model is the queue rather than the calendar: you define posting slots per channel, drop content into the stack, and Buffer sends the next item when the next slot comes round, which suits a steady cadence more than a campaign with fixed dates. Analytics are included but deliberately shallow compared with a dedicated tool. For a creator publishing the same clip across several platforms it removes the part of the job that is pure repetition.
