Which one is for you
Pick Postfity if
- Fits if you want AI writing and graphics in the same account as your scheduler
- Works for one person managing about 7 accounts on a plan
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need bulk uploads on the cheap plan, since that's a $19 a month add-on
- Tight if you rely on the free plan, because its scheduling limits aren't published
- Pricey if you add accounts and users: $5 and $10 a month each on the One plan
- Watch out: limits follow Simplified's plan names and AI credits, so the numbers can shift
Pick Publer if
- Fits if you post to less common places like Telegram, Mastodon or WordPress
- Works for one or two accounts, at $4 to $8 an account a month billed yearly
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you answer lots of comments and DMs, as no inbox is listed
- Tight if you're free: no X, 10 queued posts per account and 24 hours of post history
- Pricey if your team keeps growing, because every account and member adds to the bill
- Watch out: analytics, approvals and recycling need Business, and the API goes only to eligible customers
- Watch out: paid plans cap daily posting, and only Enterprise lifts the cap
How we grade them
| 2.0GPAPostfityFair | 2.6GPAPublerGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C$20 a month on yearly billing for 7 accounts and 1 user ($29.99 monthly), around the category middle. Extra accounts are $5, extra users $10 and bulk scheduling $19, each monthly. | CBusiness, the plan with analytics and approvals, is $8 an account a month billed yearly, so five accounts are $40, and each extra team member adds to that. That's above this category's $29 middle and under the $58 dearer quarter. Professional is $20 for five. |
| Free plan and trial | CA free plan exists with design projects, 5 GB and a few AI credits, but the pricing page doesn't list its scheduling or account limits, so we can't say how far it gets you. | CFree for good with 3 accounts and 10 queued posts each, but no X, 25 drafts and only 24 hours of published-post history, and analytics are a Business thing. Tight for a business. |
| Features | CCalendar, drafts, inbox, approvals, analytics and link in bio, plus AI writing and design. The gaps are the add-ons: bulk scheduling isn't in the One plan. | CCalendar, bulk uploads of up to 500 posts, RSS, recycling, AI, competitor tracking and approvals on Business. The gaps it shows: no social inbox in its listing, a daily posting cap only Enterprise lifts, and an API only for eligible customers. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. You connect accounts, and the Simplified plan names and credits take some working out. | AIts iPhone and iPad app averages 4.75 from about 26,600 ratings. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only. It lists Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Google Business Profile, and no wider integrations. | BWeb, iPhone, Android and a browser extension, with Canva, Google Drive, Unsplash, WordPress and Linkie. No desktop app, which an A needs. |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
