Custom
  • Quote-only for large organisations
  • Higher volume discounts, 1:1 onboarding, priority support
  • Priced per connected social account: the headline $5 / $10 is for one account and multiplies by how many you connect. Every 10th account (and every 10th extra member) is free, so the effective rate dips about 10% at higher counts.
  • Team members are a second, separate cost: $2 a month each on Professional, $3 on Business, with the plan owner already included.
  • X (Twitter) needs a paid plan because of X's API pricing; it can't be connected on the Free plan at all.
  • There's a permanent Free plan (3 accounts, no X) plus a 7-day trial of Professional and a 14-day trial of Business, no card required.
  • Annual billing is roughly 20% cheaper per account ($5 to $4 on Professional, $10 to $8 on Business). Listed prices exclude VAT, and there's a 14-day money-back guarantee.
  • Prices are USD. The live pricing page renders client-side and geo-located to Australia here, showing AUD, but it also prints an explicit US-dollar figure per plan; the USD numbers were read directly and confirmed by toggling monthly and yearly, and they match current third-party 2026 listings.
