Plans cap how many importers you can run. - **AI caption writer:** Generates captions from a monthly word allowance that varies by plan and can be raised with add-ons. - **Workspaces and roles:** Every plan has unlimited workspaces that keep brands or clients apart, each with its own queue, media library and categories. - **Analytics and competitor tracking:** Analytics come in basic, intermediate and advanced levels depending on the plan, with reports you can share. ## Good for - Solo creators and bloggers who want a library of posts that repeats - Small businesses publishing a regular mix of content types - Freelancers who keep each client in a separate workspace ## Worth knowing - Prices were read in pounds sterling, the page's default here, with USD only as a switch we could not read; confirm the dollar figure. - Each plan includes one or a few users; extra users and profiles are paid add-ons priced on the page's customizer. - X (Twitter) posting uses monthly credits: a text post costs 1 credit and a post with a link costs 15. - No iOS or Android app is mentioned on the pages we read; it is a web tool. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. SmarterQueue files your posts into categories and recycles the evergreen ones on a schedule, across nine networks. The trial is 14 days with no card, but there's no free plan after it, extra profiles and users cost more, and X posts eat monthly credits (a post with a link costs 15). - **Value for money: C.** £19.99 a month on yearly billing for 4 profiles and one user, roughly $26, which sits near the category middle of $24.99. Extra profiles and users are add-ons. - **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan. A 14-day trial gives full access without a card, which is the card-free kind of trial. - **Features: C.** Categories, recycling, RSS importers, an AI caption writer, inbox and analytics. The listing shows limits though: X posts run on monthly credits, and each plan allows a fixed number of posts a day per profile. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You connect each profile and build your categories first, so there's a bit of setup before it earns its keep. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no iOS or Android app mentioned. It connects to the networks it posts to and Bitly, with no wider integration list. These are ToolGPA's own grades.
