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.

Self-serve plans cap at three users; the top two tiers are quote-only
No social listening or competitor tracking
