> Category-based social media scheduler that recycles evergreen posts

SocialBee schedules posts by content category: each category gets its own posting slots, and evergreen posts can be recycled or set to expire. It publishes to ten networks directly, sends phone reminders for others such as WhatsApp and Telegram, and adds AI writing, a comments and DMs inbox, and analytics. Plans are priced by the number of social profiles, with agency tiers up to 150.

## Key features

- **Content categories:** Posts are filed into categories, each with its own posting schedule, so a mix of topics goes out in a set rhythm. Evergreen posts can be recycled or expired.
- **Direct and reminder publishing:** Posts go straight to Facebook, Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, TikTok, YouTube, Google Business Profile and Bluesky; other networks get a phone reminder.
- **AI Copilot and content tools:** AI writes captions and images without a cap on any plan and can draft a whole posting strategy, alongside Canva, Unsplash and GIPHY in the editor.
- **Engagement inbox:** Comments, mentions and DMs from Facebook Pages and Instagram Business, and comments and mentions from Threads, LinkedIn pages, YouTube and X, in one place.
- **Analytics and reports:** Audience growth, top posts and UTM tags on every plan. History runs to 3 months on Bootstrap and 2 years above it; branded report exports need Pro.
- **Workspaces and approvals:** Each client or brand gets its own workspace. Post approvals start on Accelerate, and internal notes and several users per workspace on Pro.

## Good for

- Small businesses that want evergreen posts to keep circulating
- Freelancers and agencies keeping each client in a separate workspace
- Teams that also post to WhatsApp, Telegram or Facebook Groups by reminder

## Worth knowing

- There is no free plan; posting stops when the 14-day trial ends unless a plan is bought.
- Bootstrap and Accelerate allow 1 user; extra users and workspaces cost $10 a month each, and 5 more profiles $15 a month.
- Bootstrap keeps 3 months of analytics; exporting branded reports needs Pro at $99 a month.
- Networks without direct posting, such as WhatsApp and Telegram, rely on reminders from the mobile app and a manual post.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 17, 2026. SocialBee files your posts into categories, each with its own time slots, and keeps evergreen ones going round. For two people it's about $34 a month: Bootstrap at $290 a year plus $10 a month for the second user. Just know the cheapest plan keeps three months of analytics, and some networks only get a reminder to post by hand.

- **Value for money: C.** Bootstrap covers 5 profiles for $290 a year, about $24 a month, but it's one user, and a second costs $10 a month. So two people pay about $34. That's a touch above this category's $29 middle and well under the $58 dearer quarter.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 14-day trial of Pro with no card needed. When it ends, posting stops until you pick a plan.
- **Features: C.** Category scheduling, recycling, unlimited AI writing, an inbox, and approvals from Accelerate. The gap its listing names: WhatsApp, Telegram and other networks without direct posting only get a phone reminder and a manual post.
- **Ease of use: C.** There's no App Store rating on record for us to go by, and you'll set up categories and posting slots before anything goes out. So it gets the ordinary grade.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Canva, Unsplash, GIPHY, Zapier, Make and Pabbly. No desktop app, which an A needs.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Your call.** You could make the core of SocialBee for yourself: calendar and reports. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. It costs $348 a year.

- You could make: Calendar and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- 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, Unsplash and GIPHY among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
