- 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.

- 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.
