Head to head
CoSchedule vs Feedly
Last updated 4 June 2026
Part social scheduler, part marketing calendar: CoSchedule schedules to eleven networks, recycles evergreen posts with ReQueue, and on the bigger plans pulls whole content projects onto the same timeline. It is priced per seat from a free plan up to quote-only tiers, with social profiles and X billed as extras.

- $19 per user / mo
- Free plan
Feedly isn't a social media scheduler at all. It's a content-discovery and monitoring tool, an RSS reader with AI on top, that social media managers use to find and track content. To actually schedule, you pair it with a real scheduler.
- From
- $6 /mo
- Free plan
Bottom line
Feedly is the pick for social media managers who need a steady stream of content ideas, and it's the cheaper start, from $6 a month. CoSchedule fits content teams that want social and editorial work on one calendar better, and it reaches Instagram and Pinterest among others, which Feedly doesn't.
Feedly starts cheaper, $6 a month against $19 per user / mo for CoSchedule. They bill on different units, so the real gap depends on how much you run. CoSchedule brings AI captions that Feedly skips, while Feedly has social listening CoSchedule doesn't.

- Priced per user/seat: the headline $29 / $69 is for one seat and multiplies by how many people you add. The two self-serve paid plans, Social Calendar and Agency Calendar, cap at 3 seats each; Content Calendar and Marketing Suite are quote-only.
- Social profiles are a second, separate cost. Social Calendar bundles 3 and Agency 5, then it is $5 a month per extra profile.
- X (Twitter) is billed on top of everything else because of X's API pricing: $8 per profile a month on Social Calendar and $25 per profile a month on Agency, Content, and Marketing Suite.
- There is a genuine Free Calendar (1 user, 1 profile, 15 scheduled messages) plus a 14-day trial of the paid features.
- Annual billing is cheaper per seat (the page shows a 'save 20%' banner): Social Calendar drops from $29 to $19 a seat and Agency from $69 to $59.
- Prices are USD read off the live pricing page, which renders client-side; monthly and annual figures were read by toggling the billing switch and cross-checked against current third-party 2026 listings.
What it really costs
CoSchedule charges per seat, so the headline price is for one. Here is the monthly cost as you connect more, with the 2-seat row marked as a realistic setup.

- Feedly is a content reader and discovery tool, not a social scheduler. It does not schedule or auto-publish social posts; it surfaces content you can then share manually or push into a scheduler like Buffer or Hootsuite (often via Zapier), which means paying for two tools.
- Plans: a free tier (100 sources), Pro at $6 a month on annual billing, Pro+ at $8.25 (adds Feedly AI / Leo), and an Enterprise market-intelligence plan from around $1,600 a month.
- Prices are USD from current listings.
- It's included here because social media managers use it to find and monitor content, not because it publishes.
Pros and cons
CoSchedule
- ReQueue is a genuinely good evergreen recycling engine
- Publishes directly to eleven networks, with a usable free plan
- Doubles as a marketing project and content calendar on the higher tiers
- Strong agency features: client calendars, white-label reports, approvals
- Per-seat pricing plus per-profile and X surcharges make the real cost hard to read
- Self-serve plans cap at three users; the top two tiers are quote-only
- No social listening or competitor tracking
- The marketing-calendar breadth is overkill if you only want to schedule posts
Feedly
- Best-in-class content discovery and RSS aggregation
- Feedly AI filters, deduplicates, and prioritises sources
- Strong monitoring and market intelligence on higher tiers
- Cheap Pro and Pro+ plans, plus a free tier
- Not a scheduler: no publishing, calendar, or auto-posting
- Needs a separate tool (and often Zapier) to actually post
- Enterprise market intelligence is expensive
- Social 'sharing' is manual, one article at a time
