- Priced per user/seat: the headline $79 / $119 / $149 is for one user and multiplies by how many people you add. The per-user rate is flat, with no volume discount for more seats.
- Every paid plan includes 10 social profiles; extra profiles are $10/month each. Profiles are a bundled quota, not the thing the price multiplies by, so adding seats and adding profiles are two separate costs.
- There's a permanent free plan (3 profiles, 1 user, 10 scheduled posts, 100 inbox items a month) alongside a 30-day trial of Advanced features, no card required.
- Annual billing saves about 20%: Standard $79 vs $99, Professional $119 vs $149, Advanced $149 vs $199 per user/month, which the page states as $240, $360, and $600 off per user per year.
- X (Twitter) management is sold as a paid add-on, X Lite for publishing and threads or X Plus for full inbox and analytics, because of X's API pricing.
- Advanced Listening, Advocacy (employee advocacy), and Competitive Benchmarking are separate add-ons billed on quote with a demo required, not included in the base plans.
- Prices are USD list. The pricing page renders 'US $' figures even from an Australian IP; the annual numbers were read off the live page, the monthly numbers confirmed by toggling the billing switch, and both cross-checked against current third-party listings. List prices have risen from older published figures (around $49 / $79 / $109), so these reflect the current live plans.
