Feedly vs PromoRepublic
Last updated 4 June 2026
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.

- Shared boards, team AI feeds, integrations
- 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.

- It previously offered self-serve Small Business and Agency plans (around $49 and $79 a month); those are legacy and no longer the focus.
- Social media management is one part of a wider local-marketing suite that also covers reviews, listings, local SEO, and a large customizable content and template library.
- There's no free plan, only a 14-day trial.
- Prices are USD; PromoRepublic doesn't publish a fixed price ladder, so the plans are quote-only here.
