# Sked Social

> Social media scheduler for teams that need approvals and reports

Sked Social is a social media workspace for brand teams, agencies and multi-location businesses. It plans and auto-publishes posts to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, X and Google Business Profile, with Threads and Snapchat also supported, and adds a shared inbox, analytics and social listening. Plans are a flat price for a set number of users and social profiles rather than per seat.

- **Visual planner and posting queue:** A calendar planner, automatic posting queue, bulk scheduling, campaigns and content pillars, and an ideas board that can pull tasks from Notion, Asana or Trello.
- **Approvals and review portals:** Accelerate adds internal and multi-step external approvals, with portals and calendar previews that clients can review without logging in. Grow has two fixed post statuses.
- **Shared inbox:** DMs, comments and mentions from every channel in one inbox on every plan, with quick replies, team tagging, Google review replies and Meta ad comment moderation.
- **Analytics and listening:** Live dashboards for organic and paid Meta results on every plan. Accelerate adds a custom report builder, PDF and Excel exports, and brand sentiment and keyword trends.
- **AI captions and MCP:** AI reads a brand's site and past posts to draft captions and ideas in its voice, and the Sked Social MCP lets an AI agent work inside the workspace.

## Good for

- Brand teams that need sign-off before anything is posted
- Agencies collecting client approval without client logins
- Multi-location businesses posting to Google Business Profile

## Worth knowing

- There is no free plan; after the 14-day trial the account pauses until a plan is chosen.
- Approvals, PDF and Excel exports and the custom report builder need Accelerate at $166 a month billed yearly.
- Grow is fixed at 3 users; extra users are sold only on Accelerate, at $15 a month ($150 a year) each.
- Extra social profiles cost $8 a month each on Grow and $10 a month each on Accelerate.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 17, 2026. Sked Social is a tidy team workspace: three users, six profiles, a shared inbox, live dashboards and AI captions on its first plan for $58 a month billed yearly. Approvals and custom reports wait for Accelerate at $166, though, and Threads and Snapchat only go out by notification.

- **Value for money: C.** Grow is $690 a year, about $58 a month, for 6 profiles and 3 users, so a team of two or three pays that. It sits right on this category's $58 dearer-quarter line, the top of the ordinary range. Approvals cost more, on Accelerate.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 14-day trial with no card needed. The account pauses when it ends unless you pick a plan.
- **Features: C.** Auto-publishing to eight channels, a planner and queue, an inbox on every plan, dashboards, listening and AI captions. The gaps it shows: Threads and Snapchat only go out by notification, and Grow has no approvals, just two fixed post statuses.
- **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 content pillars and the inbox first. So it gets the ordinary grade.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Canva, Google Drive, Dropbox, Frontify, Notion, Asana, Trello and OneDrive, plus an MCP server. No desktop app, which an A needs.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Sked Social 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 $696 a year.

- You could make: Calendar and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: One mailbox that several people work at once.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Canva, Google Drive and Dropbox among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
