Head to head
Feedly vs Rella
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.
- From
- $6 /mo
- Free plan
A collaboration tool first and a scheduler second, built for managers and agencies who work with clients.
- From
- $24 per member / 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 only one of the two with a free plan. Rella fits social media managers better, and it reaches Instagram and TikTok among others, which Feedly doesn't.
Feedly starts cheaper, $6 a month against $24 per member / mo for Rella. They bill on different units, so the real gap depends on how much you run. Rella adds AI captions that Feedly leaves out.

- 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.
