Last updated 4 June 2026
vs
Crowdfire's social media app shut down in 2025, so this is here for the record rather than as a recommendation. In its day it leaned on content curation, surfacing articles and images to share, plus scheduling, light analytics, and the follower management it started life with as JustUnfollow.

X Pro is the rebuilt TweetDeck: a multi-column dashboard for power users on X, with post and thread scheduling, real-time search columns, and multi-account monitoring. As of 2026 it's locked behind X's $40-a-month Premium+ tier, which is the catch.

- Access to multiple X accounts you control
- X Pro isn't sold on its own. It used to come with the cheaper X Premium plan (around $8/mo), but in March 2026 X moved it behind the top X Premium+ tier, roughly $40 a month (about $395 a year), so the real cost of using X Pro is a Premium+ subscription.
- It only manages X, so the value is entirely about how much you live on that one network.
- X has signalled a replacement product may follow, so the access terms here may change.
