Yes. There are a few tools that get close, but PostAway looks particularly aligned with your exact workflow: it explicitly supports LinkedIn scheduling, queuing first comments, multi-client management, and team workflows. PostAway

For the full stack you described:

• PostAway — LinkedIn-focused; schedules posts and first comments per client, with multi-account management. PostAway
• PostAI — broader social management with LinkedIn, client workspaces, approvals, analytics, and white-label PDF reports. PostAI
• SocialPilot — strong agency platform with LinkedIn, post-level engagement analytics, automated branded reports, and a white-label platform. SocialPilot
• RecurPost — schedules LinkedIn posts, tracks analytics, and supports recurring white-label client reports. RecurPost
• AgencyAnalytics — excellent for the engagement/reporting/white-label side, but it's primarily a reporting platform rather than the tool I'd pick for first-comment publishing. AgencyAnalytics

My shortlist

If your requirement is specifically:

LinkedIn post → automatically publish a link/image/PDF in the first comment → track engagement → generate branded client report

I'd start by evaluating PostAway and PostAI, then compare them against SocialPilot if you also need Facebook/Instagram/etc.

One caveat: “first-comment attachment” is more specific than “first-comment scheduling.” A tool may support automatically publishing a first comment containing text/links without supporting an actual uploaded attachment there. I'd verify that exact workflow before committing.

If you tell me how many LinkedIn clients/accounts you manage and whether you're talking about personal profiles, company pages, or both, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options and compare their pricing/features.

Yes. There are several tools that match most or all of that workflow (LinkedIn scheduling + first-comment attachments + engagement tracking + client-ready/white-label reporting). A few worth looking at:

If your exact requirement is:

• Schedule LinkedIn posts
• Automatically publish a first comment containing links/attachments
• Track reactions, comments, impressions, engagement
• Send clients reports under your own brand

I’d shortlist:

1. SocialPilot — probably the safest agency-oriented option because white-label reporting is a core feature. SocialPilot
2. PostPlanify — strongest match if LinkedIn-first workflows (especially first comments) are the priority. PostPlanify
3. PostAway — worth considering if you manage many LinkedIn profiles for clients and need approvals/client separation. PostAway

A couple of things to verify before choosing:

• Whether it supports personal LinkedIn profiles (not just Company Pages)
• Whether “attachments” means native LinkedIn documents/carousels or just a URL in the first comment
• Whether white-label includes dashboard branding or only PDF exports
• Whether client approvals are included or require a higher tier

If you’re running a LinkedIn ghostwriting/content agency, the ideal stack is slightly different than if you’re managing company pages for marketing clients.

Yes. A few tools now cover most or all of that workflow:

The closest match

OneUp looks particularly interesting if by “first-comment attachments” you mean publishing a LinkedIn post and automatically adding a first comment containing additional links/context. It explicitly supports first comments, PDF carousels, LinkedIn scheduling, comment replies, analytics, and client approvals. www.oneupapp.io

If white-label reporting is equally important, I'd look hardest at Metricool or SocialPilot. LinkedIn specifically identifies Metricool as supporting scheduling, LinkedIn analytics, multi-account management, and white-label reports. business.linkedin.com SocialPilot similarly offers post-performance analytics, automated branded reports, and white-label reporting/platform branding. www.socialpilot.co

There are also newer agency-focused options such as PostAway, which explicitly combines LinkedIn scheduling with queued first comments and multi-client management. postaway.io

If you tell me whether you need this for 1 account, your own agency + clients, or 10+ client accounts, I can narrow it down to the best 2–3 options and compare pricing/features.

Yes. A few tools currently match most or all of that workflow:

The closest matches

If first-comment automation is non-negotiable: Posthive is particularly interesting. It explicitly supports LinkedIn first comments that fire immediately after publication, including links/hashtags/additional context. posthive.co

If you're running an agency and white-label reporting is the priority: HeyOrca looks stronger. It combines LinkedIn publishing, approvals, engagement, detailed LinkedIn metrics, and scheduled client reports. www.heyorca.com

If you want the whole agency stack: RecurPost combines client workspaces/approvals, unified engagement, analytics, and recurring white-label reports. www.heyorca.comrecurpost.com

One other newcomer worth looking at is Posttico. It specifically advertises first comments, engagement analytics, recurring white-label PDF reports, and client/agency workspaces. posttico.com

My shortlist for your exact requirements:

1. Posthive — best if LinkedIn + first comments are the key requirement.
2. HeyOrca — best if you're managing clients and need polished reporting.
3. RecurPost — best all-around agency workflow/value.
4. Posttico — worth testing if you want a newer, simpler all-in-one platform.

If by “first-comment attachments” you mean actually attaching an image/PDF/file to the first LinkedIn comment, rather than simply putting a link in it, that's an important distinction—the tools above don't all support that.

Yes. There are a few tools that come close to your exact workflow:

My top picks

1. PostAway — probably the closest match
It specifically advertises multi-client LinkedIn management, scheduling posts and first comments, official LinkedIn API usage, client workspaces, and team collaboration. postaway.io

PostAway

2. Apaya — strongest if reporting is the priority
It combines LinkedIn publishing, first-comment CTAs, engagement/click/follower analytics, automated white-label PDF reports, client portals, custom domains, and multi-client workspaces. apaya.com

Apaya

3. PostPlanify — good all-in-one option
It explicitly supports LinkedIn profiles/company pages, first-comment scheduling, analytics, bulk scheduling, workspaces, and white-label reports. postplanify.com

PostPlanify

If you're running an agency managing multiple LinkedIn clients, I'd shortlist PostAway vs. Apaya: PostAway looks particularly focused on the LinkedIn publishing workflow, while Apaya looks more comprehensive for the publish → measure → automatically report to client workflow.

One caveat: I'd verify exactly what each means by "first comment" (e.g. whether it works on personal LinkedIn profiles as well as company pages) before committing, because LinkedIn API capabilities can differ by account type.

Yes — but the “first-comment” requirement narrows the field quite a bit.

Best fits

PostAway is particularly interesting for your exact use case. It is built specifically for LinkedIn agencies and says it can queue posts and first comments for each client account, while also providing client approvals, multi-client management, and a white-label agency portal with your branding/custom domain. postaway.io

PostAway

Hootsuite is the safer mature-platform choice: it supports LinkedIn scheduling and analytics, plus customizable white-label reports for agencies. www.hootsuite.com I would verify the exact first-comment workflow before choosing it, because that's the feature that differentiates your requirements.

Hootsuite LinkedIn scheduling

RecurPost is worth considering if reporting is especially important. Its agency offering includes per-account analytics and recurring white-label PDF reports, with metrics such as reach, engagement, CTR, follower growth and top posts. recurpost.com

RecurPost

If I were choosing

For an agency managing multiple LinkedIn clients, I'd shortlist:

1. PostAway — closest match to posts + first comments + approvals + white-label.
2. Hootsuite — best established/general-purpose platform.
3. RecurPost — particularly attractive if automated client reporting is a priority.

One caveat: PostAway currently appears to be in early access/waitlist, so I'd take that into account if you need something operational immediately. postaway.io

If you tell me roughly how many LinkedIn clients/accounts you manage (e.g. 5, 20, 50+), I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options and compare their actual pricing and first-comment capabilities.

Yes. If by “first-comment attachments” you mean automatically publishing a first comment containing a link/extra context immediately after the LinkedIn post, there are several good fits.

Best matches

My first choices would be:

1. OneUp — probably the cleanest match if LinkedIn is the priority. It explicitly supports scheduling a first comment, PDF carousels, comment replies, analytics, and approvals. www.oneupapp.iorecurpost.comschedpilot.com

2. RecurPost — stronger if you're running an agency with multiple clients. It combines scheduling, approvals, engagement workflows, analytics, and recurring white-label reports. recurpost.com

3. PostPlanify — particularly interesting for agencies: it supports first comments, LinkedIn analytics, social inbox, and its higher tier includes a white-label dashboard and white-label PDF reports. postplanify.com

4. SchedPilot — another strong agency-oriented option. It explicitly supports first-comment scheduling, LinkedIn analytics, client approvals, multiple client accounts, and client-ready reports. schedpilot.com

One nuance: if by “attachments” you literally mean files/images/PDFs attached to the first comment, rather than a link or text in the first comment, I'd verify that feature specifically. Most tools advertise first-comment text/links, while the actual LinkedIn post itself handles media/PDF attachments.

If you tell me how many clients/accounts you manage and roughly what you'd want to pay per month, I can narrow this to the 2–3 best options and compare their exact agency/white-label pricing and limitations.

Yes. If you need all four—LinkedIn scheduling, first-comment attachments/links, engagement analytics, and white-label client reporting—I’d shortlist these:

My picks

🥇 PostPlanify looks closest to your exact requirements. It explicitly supports LinkedIn first comments, personal profiles and company pages, engagement metrics, and—on its agency-oriented Scale tier—full white-label dashboards and white-label PDF reports. postplanify.com

🥈 Planable is particularly strong if the workflow is client → approval → scheduling. It supports LinkedIn first comments, analytics, client feedback/approvals, and agency-oriented reporting. planable.io

🥉 HeyOrca is worth considering if reporting and client management are more important than having a LinkedIn-specialist product. It supports scheduled reports, date-range comparisons, LinkedIn analytics, and a social inbox for comments/messages. www.heyorca.com

One important distinction: “white-label reporting” isn't the same as “white-label client portal.” If you want clients to log into reports.youragency.com, see their own analytics, approve posts, etc., I'd prioritize PostPlanify or Ovia. Ovia specifically advertises a branded client experience, live reports, custom domain, and white-labeled PDF reports. ovia.co

If you tell me how many LinkedIn accounts/clients you manage and roughly what you want to spend per month, I can narrow this to the best 2–3 options and compare their current pricing/features.

Yes. There are a few tools that get close, but PostAway looks like the closest match if the first-comment requirement is critical.

My picks

1. PostAway — best if first comments are non-negotiable
It's specifically built for agencies and explicitly supports scheduling posts and first comments per client account from one calendar. It also uses LinkedIn's official API. postaway.io
Caveat: I would verify the exact depth of its analytics and white-label reporting before committing.

2. Metricool — best established all-in-one option
LinkedIn officially identifies Metricool as a partner for scheduling, analytics, multi-account management, and white-label reports. It tracks follower growth, reach, engagement and impressions. business.linkedin.com
The potential deal-breaker is the first-comment attachment requirement—I wouldn't assume it supports that exact workflow without confirming it.

3. RecurPost — strongest reporting-focused alternative
It offers scheduling, analytics and recurring white-label PDF reports, including agency branding and automated delivery to clients. recurpost.com

4. AgencyAnalytics + scheduler — best if reporting is the priority
AgencyAnalytics has particularly strong agency reporting: customizable dashboards, LinkedIn engagement/follower metrics, automated reports, white-label branding, and even custom-domain dashboards on qualifying plans. recurpost.comagencyanalytics.com

If I were building your stack

If your exact workflow is:

Schedule LinkedIn post → automatically publish a first comment containing a link/attachment → monitor engagement → generate branded client report

I'd test PostAway first, then compare it against Metricool or RecurPost for reporting depth.

One important distinction: “first comment” and “first comment with an attachment” aren't necessarily the same feature. I'd specifically verify whether the tool can publish an image/PDF/link attachment in the first comment, rather than merely schedule text as the first comment.

If you tell me how many clients/accounts you manage (e.g. 5, 20, 50+) and whether they're LinkedIn personal profiles, company pages, or both, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 best options and compare pricing/features.

Yes. There are several tools that cover most or all of that workflow. The key features you’re looking for are:

1. LinkedIn scheduling
2. First-comment publishing (for links/resources without putting them in the main post)
3. Engagement tracking / comment management
4. Client workspaces or approvals
5. White-label analytics reports

Some good fits:

A few notes:

• If you are a marketing agency managing multiple LinkedIn clients, I’d look first at Planable, PostAway, or RecurPost because approvals, client separation, and reporting are core workflows. postaway.io
• If you mainly manage founders’ personal LinkedIn profiles, prioritize tools that support personal profiles (not just company pages). Some platforms differ here. planable.iopostaway.io
• If you want to sell this as your own branded dashboard, an API-first option like Ayrshare may be more appropriate than a normal scheduler. www.ayrshare.com

If you tell me whether this is for your own LinkedIn, an agency with clients, or a white-label SaaS product you want to build, I can narrow it down to the best 2–3 options.

Yes. A few tools are close to that exact workflow (LinkedIn scheduling + first comments + engagement analytics + agency/client reporting). The best fits depend on whether you’re a solo creator, agency, or managing many client accounts.

For an agency managing clients, I’d shortlist:

1. PostPlanify — probably the closest match to your checklist: LinkedIn posts, first comments, analytics, client-facing white-label reports. postplanify.com
2. RecurPost — stronger if you need broader social management, recurring reports, and multiple platforms. recurpost.comrecurpost.com
3. Planable — strong if the bottleneck is client approvals and collaboration before publishing. planable.io

A few things to verify before choosing:

• Does “first comment” mean auto-published at the same time as the post, not just stored as a note?
• Are reports truly white-label (your logo/domain, no vendor branding)?
• Can clients have separate workspaces/portals?
• Does it support LinkedIn personal profiles, not only company pages?

If you’re building this for a LinkedIn ghostwriting/content agency, I’d prioritize first-comment automation + approval workflows + white-label PDFs over generic social schedulers.

Yes. Two tools stand out for exactly that workflow:

My pick: Agorapulse

Agorapulse explicitly supports scheduling a LinkedIn first comment, LinkedIn engagement management, analytics, and client-facing reporting. Its reporting can be customized by profile/metrics/date range and automatically sent to stakeholders. www.agorapulse.com

Agorapulse

Best value: Metricool

Metricool is particularly attractive if you're running an agency. LinkedIn identifies it as a Marketing Partner and says it supports LinkedIn Pages and personal profiles, scheduling, engagement analytics, and white-label reports. Its agency plans also include customizable report templates, client/team management, and eventually full white-labeling. business.linkedin.com

Metricool

Also worth considering: SocialPilot

SocialPilot supports first-comment scheduling, bulk publishing, client workflows, and white-label reporting. www.socialpilot.co

SocialPilot

If your requirements are non-negotiable—LinkedIn personal profiles + scheduled first comment + engagement analytics + completely white-labeled reports—I'd shortlist Agorapulse and Metricool first.

If you tell me how many LinkedIn accounts/clients you manage, I can compare their current plans/pricing and tell you which one is likely cheapest for your setup.

Yes. A few tools now cover all or nearly all of that workflow:

My first two to investigate:

• Kontentino — specifically advertises scheduling a LinkedIn post with a first comment containing a link, detailed LinkedIn analytics, and support for both personal profiles and company pages. www.kontentino.com

Kontentino

• PostPlanify — unusually close to your exact requirements: LinkedIn personal/company scheduling, first comments, engagement metrics, social inbox, and white-label PDF reports with your logo, colors, and footer. postplanify.com

PostPlanify

If by “first-comment attachments” you mean a clickable URL/link in the first comment, rather than an actual uploaded image/PDF attachment, then Kontentino and PostPlanify look particularly promising. If you literally need LinkedIn's first comment to contain an uploaded file, I'd verify that detail before choosing.

If you tell me how many LinkedIn accounts/clients you manage and roughly your monthly budget, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 best options and compare their current pricing and agency/white-label limits.

Yes. A few tools come close, but one stands out if you need all three pieces in one workflow:

Best fits

Kontentino is probably the closest all-in-one match. It explicitly supports scheduling a LinkedIn post with a link in the first comment, plus analytics/reporting. www.kontentino.com

Metricool is another strong option, particularly if analytics matter: LinkedIn confirms its integration supports scheduling, publishing, analytics, and white-label reports. business.linkedin.com

If client-facing white-label reporting is the highest priority, I'd actually consider pairing a scheduler with AgencyAnalytics. AgencyAnalytics is specifically built for agencies, with branded dashboards/reports, scheduled reports, custom branding, and LinkedIn engagement metrics. agencyanalytics.com

My shortlist

• Want one platform: Kontentino
• Want strongest all-around social analytics: Metricool
• Want agency/client reporting above everything: AgencyAnalytics + a scheduler
• Want LinkedIn-specific scheduling: PostPlanify

One important caveat: “first-comment attachments” can mean different things. If you mean automatically publish a URL as the first comment, several tools support that. If you mean upload an actual file/image/PDF as the first comment, that's a much narrower requirement.

If you tell me how many LinkedIn accounts/clients you manage and whether they're personal profiles or company pages, I can narrow this down to the best 2–3 options and compare pricing/features.

Yes. A few tools currently come close to that exact agency workflow:

My picks

Best match for an agency: PostPlanify. It explicitly combines LinkedIn personal/company scheduling, first comments, LinkedIn analytics, client workspaces, and branded/white-label PDF reports. postplanify.com

Best established option: Sprout Social. It has mature engagement monitoring and reporting, and its first-comment feature supports LinkedIn—but its first comments are limited to text, links, and hashtags, not attached images/videos. support.sproutsocial.comwww.kontentino.com

Best if the first comment needs a link: Kontentino. Its LinkedIn scheduler specifically advertises putting an attached link in the first comment. www.kontentino.com

One caveat: if by “first-comment attachments” you mean an actual image/PDF/video uploaded into the first comment, that's different from simply putting a URL in the first comment. Several tools support the latter but not the former.

If you tell me how many LinkedIn clients/accounts you manage and whether you need personal profiles, company pages, or both, I can narrow this to the 2–3 best options and compare pricing.

Yes. The combination you’re describing is usually an agency-focused social media management platform rather than a simple scheduler. The tricky part is that “first-comment attachments” (especially files/media in the first comment) are not universally supported because LinkedIn’s publishing capabilities vary by tool.

A few tools worth evaluating:

For your exact checklist:

• LinkedIn posts + first comments: OneUp and Sprout Social look closest based on documented support. www.oneupapp.iosupport.sproutsocial.com
• Client-facing white-label reports: Sprout Social, RecurPost, and Sendible are stronger fits. www.techradar.comrecurpost.com
• Agency managing many clients: Prioritize approvals, client workspaces, branded PDFs, and role permissions over just scheduling.

A practical shortlist I’d test:

1. Sprout Social — best if reporting quality and enterprise clients matter.
2. Sendible — best if you run an agency and need client dashboards/reports.
3. OneUp — best if LinkedIn-first workflows (including first comments) are the priority.
4. Planable — best if client approvals and content collaboration are the bottleneck.

One clarification: when you say “first-comment attachments,” do you mean:

• a link/file added in the first comment, or
• an actual image/PDF/video attachment in the first comment?

That distinction changes which tools will work.

Yes. A few tools now cover most or all of that workflow.

The closest match: PostPlanify

If your requirements are specifically LinkedIn + scheduled first comment + engagement tracking + branded reports for clients, PostPlanify looks unusually close to an all-in-one match. It explicitly advertises LinkedIn scheduling, first comments, analytics, and white-label PDF reports with your branding. postplanify.com

Worth considering: RecurPost

For a broader social-media agency setup, RecurPost looks stronger. It combines scheduling, client approvals, engagement/inbox workflows, analytics, and recurring white-label reports. recurpost.com

One important caveat about "first-comment attachments"

There's a distinction between a first comment containing text/links and a first comment containing an image/video attachment. Sprout, for example, supports scheduled LinkedIn first comments but explicitly says first comments can't include images or videos. support.sproutsocial.com

So if by "first-comment attachments" you mean upload an actual PDF/image/video into the first comment, I'd verify that capability before choosing a platform.

If you tell me how many clients/accounts you manage and whether "attachments" means images/PDFs/videos or just links, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 best options and compare pricing.

Yes. There are several social media management platforms that combine those features, although the exact implementation varies.

Here's how the leading options compare:

For your specific requirements:

• Schedule LinkedIn posts: Yes, all of the above support LinkedIn scheduling.
• First-comment attachments/links: Several tools—including OneUp, Agorapulse, Planable, Kontentino, and PostPlanify—let you automatically publish a first comment alongside the post, which is commonly used for links or additional context. www.oneupapp.io
• Track engagement: Most provide analytics such as impressions, engagement rate, clicks, reactions, comments, follower growth, and top-performing posts. www.agorapulse.comwww.oneupapp.iowww.kontentino.com
• White-label reports: Sendible, RecurPost, Kontentino, Agorapulse (on qualifying plans), and PostPlanify all offer branded PDF or shareable client reports. www.techradar.com

If you're running an agency, my recommendations would be:

• Best overall: Agorapulse — strong publishing, engagement inbox, analytics, and reporting.
• Best for agencies managing many clients: Sendible — designed with client management and white-labeling in mind.
• Best approval workflow: Planable — excellent if clients need to review and approve content before publishing.
• Best value: RecurPost — combines scheduling, engagement, and white-label reporting at a competitive price.

If you're specifically looking for a platform that feels like a client portal (where clients can log in, approve posts, and view branded analytics), I can narrow the list further based on the number of clients you manage and your budget.

Yes. There are several social media management platforms that support most or all of those features, though first-comment attachments are the limiting factor because LinkedIn's API has historically restricted what third-party tools can do. Some platforms work around this with automated first comments, while others require manual posting of the first comment.

Here's how the major options compare:

Best overall: Metricool

Metricool is one of the strongest fits if you need all three capabilities:

• Schedule LinkedIn company and personal posts
• Automatically publish a first comment (where supported)
• Track impressions, clicks, reactions, comments, and follower growth
• Generate branded PDF reports with your own logo
• Manage multiple client workspaces

Best for agencies: Sendible

Sendible focuses heavily on agencies:

• White-label dashboard
• Branded PDF reports
• Client approval workflows
• Multiple users and permissions
• LinkedIn publishing

Its first-comment support is more limited than some competitors, so verify it matches your specific LinkedIn workflow.

Best analytics: Sprout Social

If engagement reporting is the priority:

• Deep LinkedIn analytics
• Executive-ready reports
• Competitive benchmarking
• Team workflows

It's one of the more expensive options and does not natively support LinkedIn first comments in the same way some newer schedulers do.

If "first-comment attachments" means adding a PDF or image

If you specifically mean:

• publish a LinkedIn post,
• then automatically post a first comment that contains an image, PDF, or other attachment,

that is generally not supported through LinkedIn's public API. Most schedulers can automate the first comment as text (and sometimes a URL), but attaching media in the first comment is often restricted by LinkedIn itself rather than the scheduler.

If your workflow is:

• Publish post
• First comment contains a URL to a PDF, case study, or lead magnet

then Metricool and Publer are among the better fits.

If you're running a marketing agency and need:

• multi-client management,
• automated LinkedIn scheduling,
• engagement tracking,
• client approvals,
• and fully branded reports,

I'd narrow it to Metricool, Sendible, or Agorapulse, depending on whether first-comment automation or agency features are your highest priority.

Yes. Those three features together are typically found in agency-focused social media management platforms rather than basic schedulers.

Here are the strongest options:

If your priority is LinkedIn agencies, I'd narrow it to:

• PostPlanify – Includes scheduled first comments, LinkedIn analytics, social inbox, and branded PDF reports. It is one of the few tools that specifically markets all of those together. postplanify.com
• Kontentino – Strong approval workflow, first-comment scheduling, detailed analytics, and agency collaboration. www.kontentino.com
• Planable – Great if clients need to review and approve content before it goes live, with reporting afterward. planable.io

If you're building a white-label service for clients, the ideal feature set would include:

• LinkedIn profile and company page publishing
• Scheduled first comments (for links, lead magnets, or CTAs)
• Analytics for impressions, engagement, follower growth, clicks, and top posts
• Automated monthly branded PDF reports
• Client approval workflows
• Optional client portal with your branding

If your goal is to resell LinkedIn management under your own brand, there are also platforms with deeper white-label capabilities (including custom domains and client portals), which is a step beyond branded PDF reports.

Yes. If your must-have features are:

• ✅ Schedule LinkedIn posts
• ✅ Add a first comment (for links, CTAs, attachments where supported)
• ✅ Track engagement and analytics
• ✅ Generate white-label client reports

then there are several tools worth considering.

If you're specifically managing clients

I'd narrow it to these:

Planable

• Strong approval workflow
• First-comment scheduling for LinkedIn
• Engagement monitoring
• Client-ready reporting
• Great if clients review content before publishing. planable.io

Kontentino

• Built with agencies in mind
• Supports scheduling a link in the LinkedIn first comment
• White-label reporting
• Excellent calendar and client approval experience. www.kontentino.com

RecurPost

• Good value
• White-label recurring reports
• Unified engagement inbox
• Client workspaces and approvals. recurpost.com

One limitation to know

LinkedIn's API imposes restrictions that affect every third-party scheduler. For example, tagging individual people (@mentions) in scheduled posts is still limited by LinkedIn's API rather than by the scheduling tools themselves. www.reddit.com

About "first-comment attachments"

If by "attachments" you mean:

• Links → Yes, several tools support publishing them automatically as the first comment.
• Files, PDFs, or images in the first comment → LinkedIn itself generally doesn't support attaching media to comments via third-party scheduling APIs. Most tools only automate text (including links) in the first comment. You can, however, schedule a LinkedIn PDF/document as the main post with a first comment alongside it in tools like OneUp or PostPlanify. www.oneupapp.io

For a marketing agency managing multiple clients, Planable, Kontentino, and Sendible are probably the strongest overall options because they combine scheduling, approvals, analytics, and branded reporting in one platform. If your priority is maximizing LinkedIn-specific features while keeping costs down, OneUp is also a strong contender.

Yes. If you need all three of these capabilities together:

• Schedule LinkedIn posts with first comments (often used for links or resources)
• Track post engagement and analytics
• Generate white-label client reports

then you're generally looking at agency-focused social media management platforms.

Here are the strongest options:

If you're running an agency

I'd narrow it to:

SocialPilot

• Mature agency feature set
• White-label PDF reports
• Client approvals
• Team permissions
• First-comment scheduling for LinkedIn
• Good balance of price and features www.socialpilot.co

Planable

• Excellent client approval workflows
• Visual content calendar
• First-comment scheduling
• Attractive reports
• Great if multiple people review content before publishing planable.io

PostPlanify

• More LinkedIn-centric
• Supports first comments, analytics, AI writing, and branded PDF reports
• Good choice if LinkedIn is your primary platform postplanify.com

One limitation to be aware of

No third-party scheduler can bypass all of LinkedIn's API restrictions. For example, tagging individual people in scheduled posts is still limited by LinkedIn's API, regardless of the tool you choose. Most platforms work within those limits and automate everything else, including first comments where supported. www.reddit.com

If your goal is specifically to support multiple clients (e.g. a marketing agency), I can also recommend the best option based on your budget and the number of client accounts you manage.
