Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 2 of the 19 other social media schedulers we grade
Agorapulse combines a social inbox, a shared publishing calendar and reporting in one tool sold per user. The inbox handles comments, DMs, ad comments and Google reviews with moderation rules, and the reports tie social posts to website traffic and revenue through Google Analytics. Each paid plan includes 10 social profiles, with more sold one at a time.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Agorapulse, taken from its own pages and our grades.
There's no App Store rating on record for us to go by, and you'll connect profiles and set up moderation rules to get the most from it.
- 1
Best for teams buried in comments and DMs
Agorapulse is strongest at the inbox: comments, DMs, ad comments and Google reviews with moderation rules, plus reports that tie posts to traffic and revenue.
- 2
Paid plans start at $79 a month for each person
As its pricing page puts it: $79 per user / month, billed annually ($99 billed monthly).
- 3
You can try it first
30-day free trial, no credit card required
- 4
It runs on 3 platforms
Web, iOS and Android.
- 5
Social inbox
Comments, DMs and Google Business Profile reviews from every network land in one inbox, with translation, contact history and automated moderation rules.
- 6
Publishing calendar
Posts to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, X, YouTube, Threads, Pinterest, Bluesky and Google Business Profile are planned on one calendar, with CSV bulk upload of 200 posts.
- 7
Approvals and shared calendars
Simple approvals for teammates or clients on every plan; calendars shared with outside reviewers (5 on Professional, unlimited on Advanced) and multi-step approvals on Custom.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 2 of 19
That is against the other social media schedulers we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace Agorapulse you would be making one mailbox that several people work at once. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for teams buried in comments and DMs
Agorapulse is strongest at the inbox: comments, DMs, ad comments and Google reviews with moderation rules, plus reports that tie posts to traffic and revenue. It's sold per user at $79 a month billed yearly, so a team of two pays $158. And since July 2026 there's no free plan, just a 30-day trial.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | Standard is $79 a user a month billed yearly with 10 profiles, so two people pay $158 a month and three $237. That puts it in this category's dearest tenth, which starts at $99. The inbox and ROI reports are what you're paying for. |
| Free plan and trial | C | The free plan was withdrawn on July 6, 2026. What's left is a 30-day trial with no card, and a free Archie AI plan that only creates posts through Archie, for four networks. |
| Features | B | A strong inbox with moderation rules and Google reviews, a shared calendar, approvals on every plan, ROI reports and an MCP server. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the core job, though full X management and listening are add-ons. |
| Ease of use | C | There's no App Store rating on record for us to go by, and you'll connect profiles and set up moderation rules to get the most from it. So it gets the ordinary grade. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, iPhone and Android, with Canva, Google Analytics, Bitly, Zapier, HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack and Microsoft Teams. No desktop app, which an A needs. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Agorapulse is for
- Great if your team spends most of the day answering comments and DMs
- Good for marketers who have to show the revenue social brings in
- Handy when clients need to approve posts on a shared calendar
Who it is not for
- Pricey if you're a small team, at $79 a month for each person
- Skip it if X is a big channel for you, as full X management is an add-on through sales
- Not for you if you were counting on the free plan, which went in July 2026
Good to know
Good for
- Teams that spend much of their day answering comments and DMs
- Marketers who need to show the traffic and revenue social posts bring in
- Agencies sharing calendars with clients for approval
Worth knowing
- Each user pays the full plan rate, and each plan includes 10 social profiles; extra profiles cost $10 a month each billed annually ($15 monthly).
- The free plan was withdrawn on July 6, 2026; the free Archie AI plan left in its place only creates posts through Archie and covers four networks.
- Full X (Twitter) management is sold as a separate X Lite or X Plus add-on through sales.
- Listening, competitive benchmarking and employee advocacy are add-ons sold through a demo.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Agorapulse you would be making one mailbox that several people work at once. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 10 of the 19 other social media schedulers grade higher. It costs $948 a year.
What you could make
- Calendar and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- One mailbox that several people work at once.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, Canva, Google Drive and Google Analytics among them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Agorapulse’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
