- Extra social sets $15/mo each ($11.25 on annual)
- Priced per social set. A social set is one profile on each of the eight networks Later supports, so the headline price covers a whole brand across networks rather than a single channel.
- Starter is capped at one social set and one user with no add-ons, so its column in the cost table stays flat. Only Growth and Scale let you add social sets, at $15 each per month ($11.25 on annual).
- Extra users are $5 a month each on Growth and Scale ($3.75 on annual). Growth's two included sets and Scale's six converge in price once you pass six sets, since both add extra sets at the same $15 rate; above that you pay Scale only for its deeper features.
- Annual billing gives three months free (about 25% off): Starter $18.75 vs $25, Growth $37.50 vs $50, Scale $82.50 vs $110 per month.
- Later still has a limited free plan (Link in Bio plus a small posting allowance, aimed at creators joining brand campaigns), but it's off the main pricing page, which now leads with a 14-day trial.
- Prices are USD list, read off the live pricing page, which bills in USD worldwide. The monthly and annual figures were confirmed by toggling the page's billing switch and cross-checked against current third-party listings.
