SmarterQueue is built around evergreen recycling and content curation: you sort posts into categories, it re-shares the best ones automatically with small variations, and a curation tool helps you find fresh content to fill the gaps.

  • Flat, quota-bundled plans by social accounts, with AI credits and automation runs metered per plan (2,500 to 100,000 AI credits).
  • There's no free plan, only a 7-day trial. Annual billing saves up to 30%; the annual figures here are derived from that.
  • White-label is included on the Agency plan.
  • Prices are USD; FeedHive also prices in EUR (the page geo-located to EUR when checked), so the USD figures were taken from FeedHive's USD listings.

  • Unlimited workspaces, 20 content categories, 3 RSS importers, advanced importer
  • 250 scheduled and 200 published posts per profile a month, advanced analytics
  • 25,000 AI words a month
  • Two plans, Pro and Team, with a slider: the base price covers 5 social profiles and the bundled users, and you add more profiles and users to scale, so the monthly cost grows with the slider. SmarterQueue recently replaced its older Solo / Business / Agency lineup with this Pro / Team-plus-slider structure.
  • There's no free plan, only a free trial whose timer starts after your first queued post rather than at signup.
  • Annual billing is 15% cheaper: at the 5-profile base, Pro is $21 a month and Team $42.
  • Extra social profiles and extra users are add-ons priced through the slider. AI caption writing is metered (10,000 words a month on Pro, 25,000 on Team), and X posting is capped at 5 tweets a week.
  • Nonprofits, charities, schools, and full-time students get 50% off.
  • Prices are USD, read off the live pricing page with the currency switched to USD and the billing toggled; the GBP figures (about £17 and £34 a month on annual) cross-check to the same numbers.
