What's new

Adding a video to a playlist no longer means finding and pasting a playlist ID. The Add to playlist field now lists the playlists on your YouTube channel, with whether each one is public and how many videos it holds.

Select New playlist to create one without leaving Sequence. The picker appears in the Publish tab when you schedule a YouTube video, and in Edit live post for videos that are already published.

You can now change a post after it has gone live, without leaving Sequence. Open a published post, go to Publish, and select Edit live post next to the YouTube, Facebook or LinkedIn account.

One edit updates every account the post went out to on that platform, and the new details are saved back to the post in Sequence. You need permission to publish, or to publish with approval and approve posts.

The grid preview in the Content Planner is now somewhere to plan your feed, not just look at it. Drag a post to a new spot and the times stay where they are while the posts move between them, so your posting rhythm stays the same.

Nothing saves until you confirm. The review lists every post with its old and new time, and the platforms each queued post will be rescheduled on. Posts that are published, publishing or due in the next 15 minutes stay where they are.

The Sequence Chrome extension has been rebuilt so saving a post to your Inspiration library takes one click. Hover a post on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Threads, Facebook or the Meta Ad Library and a Save button appears on it. On a YouTube video page, Save sits beside Like, and on LinkedIn it sits under each post’s profile.

Pick the brand from a list grouped by workspace, with brand logos and a search box when you have lots of brands. The post saves in the background and a confirmation lets you open it in Sequence. Instagram ads in your feed are found in the Meta Ad Library and saved as ads, and LinkedIn posts and reposts save with their own link.

Install Sequence Capture from the Chrome Web Store and sign in once. Disconnect in the extension signs that browser out of Sequence straight away.

The Report tab in Analytics can now write your client update for you. Choose organic, paid or both, and Sequence drafts a message from your numbers: views, followers and the top post on each platform, and for paid ads, each campaign's results and cost per result, ad by ad. It only reports what happened, so you add your own next steps before it goes out. Every number is checked against your Sequence data before it is used.

Send an update once, or on a schedule so a fresh one goes out each week or month. It can go by email, into a Slack channel, or both, and you can copy any update formatted for email, Slack or plain text. Scheduled reports also get Send now, and report templates now keep every setting.

AI updates are part of Pro plans and use 30 AI credits each. An optional line at the end tells readers the update was written by AI.

You can now save reels and ads to your inspiration library straight from Instagram. Share a post to @sequencesocial in your DMs, pick the brand it's for, and it's saved with its creator, stats and media, ready to analyse and turn into your next post.

To connect, open your Inspiration library and select Save from Instagram, then send the code to @sequencesocial. Each time you share, you pick a brand from a list grouped by workspace, with the brand you used last at the top. Ads are matched in the Meta Ad Library and saved as ads, and you can paste a link from any supported platform to save it too.

Instagram doesn't send a link when you share a regular post or carousel, so for those, copy the post's link and paste it into the chat. Save from Instagram is available on Pro.

Set up a custom field such as Video # or Format once in Settings, under Workspace and Custom fields, then choose which brands use it. Every brand that adds it shares the same field and options, so saved views, filters and templates built on it work across brands.

Brands keep their own fields too, and can add a workspace field or copy it as their own. The Brand fields list shows every brand's fields by name, so you can turn matching fields into one workspace field, merge fields with different names, rename them or delete them. Values on your posts are kept.

Drag fields to reorder them, or click a field to edit it. Only workspace owners and admins can change workspace fields; everyone else can still fill them in.

Create a content template from a complete content piece, including properties, Plan content, media, captions and publishing setup.

Start from Blank, a brand template or a workspace template. Admins can choose the default starting point for new content, while creators can pick another template from the New menu.

Manage templates in Settings, or find them alongside ideas in the Inspiration Library.

Save the way your team works in Content, including the view mode, layout, visible fields, filters, sorting and grouping.

Keep a view for yourself, share it with one brand, or make it available across the workspace. Brand and workspace admins can set shared defaults so teammates and clients open the same setup.

You can still switch views, choose a personal default or follow the shared default whenever your workflow changes.

Start from a ready-made status workflow for video production, agency sign-off, podcasts and more, or save your own setup as a template your team can reuse.

A template loads as unsaved changes, so you can remove anything you don't need before you save. Included in Pro.

Mark a custom status in Plan, Media or Publish as an approval step. Choosing it on a post asks for a reviewer, just like Plan review and Media review.

For every review status, choose where a post goes when it is approved and when changes are requested. Included in Pro.

Add your own statuses to the Plan, Media, Publish and Other groups, and place them between Sequence's default statuses. Set one list for the whole workspace, or give a brand its own. Custom statuses are included in Pro.

When you delete a status, Sequence asks where its posts should go, and new statuses can take posts from an existing one. If your team used On hold, it is now a custom status holding the same posts, and the Archive action has been removed. See how content statuses work.

You can now connect Sequence to Claude, ChatGPT or Codex from Settings, MCP & API. Choose the workspaces, brands and access for each assistant, and it can plan drafts, add media, request reviews and keep your content calendar organised.

Turn on Social publishing and pick the accounts it may use, and the assistant can schedule or publish content that has already been approved. It checks the content, accounts and time with you before anything posts. Inbox and analytics stay in Sequence.

Create an API key in Settings, MCP & API to work with content, projects, approvals and schedules from your own tools. Each key covers the brands, accounts and permissions you choose, and you can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Webhooks send a signed notification to your app when content changes, a review is decided, a post is scheduled or publishes, or a new message arrives. Each webhook retries for about a day and keeps a delivery history you can send again from.

Sequence now creates a proxy for every video you upload: a lighter copy made for smooth playback. Videos start quickly in the Media tab and on Content Planner cards, even when the original file is hundreds of megabytes.

Your original is never changed. Switch between Proxy and Original from the quality button under the player when you need to check full-quality detail, like colour or grain. Each option shows its resolution and file size.

The download button in the Media tab now lets you choose the Original, the Proxy or a Still Image of the current frame, with the resolution and size listed for each.

Most teams don't upload big video files into Trello or Asana. They paste a Google Drive or Dropbox link instead. Sequence now understands those links on every import: drop a CSV or Excel export, or connect Trello, Asana, Monday.com, ClickUp or Notion, and any share link in a media column is turned into a download and copied into your workspace, ready to publish.

The file only needs to be shared with anyone who has the link. A private link is reported on the post so you can fix the sharing and import again. Trello attachments and covers also come across on a connected import now, and the import preview shows which files each post will receive.

You can now bring your content plan into Sequence straight from Trello, Asana, Monday.com or ClickUp. Open Content, select Import, pick the tool, and Sequence reads your board, project or list, suggests how each field maps to a Sequence field, and shows a preview before anything is created.

Your lists, sections and statuses become Sequence statuses, and you decide what each one means in the Value match step. Descriptions, due dates, labels, tags, assignees and attachments come across too. Prefer a file? Bulk import now accepts Trello JSON exports and recognises the column names in Asana, Monday.com and ClickUp CSV and Excel exports, alongside the existing Notion and spreadsheet options.

For long-form YouTube posts, AI Caption reads the full transcript and adds a timestamped chapter list to the end of your description, so viewers can jump straight to the section they want.

Chapters follow YouTube's rules automatically and only appear on the YouTube description, never on your other platforms. Turn them off with the Chapters toggle in the AI Caption window if you'd rather write your own.

Thumbnails and previews in the Content Planner used to look a touch darker and duller than the video itself, so pressing play came with a small colour shift. Sequence now reads the colour information inside each upload and cuts every thumbnail, preview and review proxy with the same colour maths your browser uses to play the video. HD footage, older SD clips and HDR videos from phones are each handled the right way.

Gallery and Board cards also show a sharper still than before, so previews stay crisp on large cards and Retina screens. Your existing videos have already been reprocessed, so there is nothing to re-upload. Published posts are unaffected: the cover you choose is still cut from your original file at full resolution.

Sequence now connects with Slack so agency and content teams can keep reviews and content work moving from the channels they already use. Route each brand's approval and publishing notifications to the right channel, then review the title, media link, platforms, caption and post time in a native Slack table before approving, requesting changes or opening the content in Sequence.

You can also turn a Slack message into a content piece, save inspiration links from everyday conversation, attach Slack files or existing brand media, schedule a post, check publishing readiness and pull a brand report. Every action respects the user's Sequence access and the brand selected for that Slack workspace.

Connect Slack from Settings > Integrations, invite Sequence to the channels you want to use, then choose the destination for each notification type.

Set a brand to Use workspace timezone and it will stay in step with the workspace automatically. Change the workspace timezone once and every brand using that setting follows it.

Need a different timezone for one brand? Choose a specific timezone in Brand settings and Sequence will keep that override.

Brand tracker brings content production across the brands you can access into one view. See how much is in Plan, Media and Publish, alongside posts on hold, approvals waiting for review, requested changes and scheduled posts.

Health signals highlight brands with nothing scheduled or approvals that have been waiting, while recent publishing counts show what has gone live. Search, filter and sort the tracker to find the brands that need your attention.

Paste a Sequence share link into WhatsApp, Slack or iMessage and the preview now shows the post itself: its title, a line of caption, and a card made from the post’s media. Posts with a Plan and no media yet preview with an excerpt of the Plan, and shared projects preview with the project name and a grid of their posts.

Previews only show what the link is set to show, and passcode-protected links preview without any content. Edit the post and the next paste picks up the change.

Project cards now show the posts inside them, with a media or Plan preview and the post title underneath. Play a video, move through carousel slides, or open a post directly from the Projects page. Add your next idea with the + New idea card.

Choose Auto, square, portrait or landscape previews, adjust Fit or Fill, or hide previews for a simpler overview. Use Save view beside Filter to keep your display preferences across devices. Project names now open the project, with Rename project in the three-dot menu.

Leave spoken feedback directly on your images and videos. Click the microphone beside Send to record a voice note, then listen back and edit the transcript before posting. The audio and transcript stay together in the comment, with the video timestamp attached.

On supported browsers, your words appear as you speak, so the transcript is ready sooner when you stop. You can still add a written comment alongside your recording.

The Publish tab now gives supported video platforms the same clear thumbnail picker as the main post. Choose an uploaded image, one of three suggested frames, or capture the current frame, then keep a different cover for each platform when needed.

Sequence shows platform-managed covers as read-only when a destination does not accept custom video thumbnails, so the controls match what can actually be published.
