Tried to troubleshoot this multiple times, thought it might be bottom bracket vs seat post vs saddle. I only hear it when seated. Any way to fix this?

I had a problem just like this on my Cannondale topstone. Ended up being the seat clamp on the saddle rails. It felt tight, but was still making noise. Give that a try.

I had a very similar sound on my old saddle. It ended up being this bolt. I sprayed a tiny spritz of WD40 directly where the bolt meets the seat and it went away. Might need something similar on yours.
Check tension on saddle clamp, seatpost bolt, chainring bolts, and for any play in the peddles.
