Last updated 4 June 2026
vs
MavSocial pairs scheduling with unusually strong digital asset management, including a built-in stock photo library, plus a social inbox and approval workflows. The catch is the network list: it covers the big names but skips TikTok and Pinterest.

- $24 /mo
- Free plan
The value pick: Publer posts to thirteen networks, Telegram and WordPress included, and bundles bulk upload, recycling, and RSS automation for less than most rivals charge. It's priced per connected account, the interface is busy, and X needs a paid plan.

Bottom line
MavSocial and Publer both cover the basics; the right one comes down to how you post. MavSocial is the stronger pick for Teams that want strong digital asset management built into the scheduler; choose Publer for Power users posting to many networks at once.

Enterprise
Custom
- Quote-only for large organisations
- Higher volume discounts, 1:1 onboarding, priority support
- Priced per connected social account: the headline $5 / $10 is for one account and multiplies by how many you connect. Every 10th account (and every 10th extra member) is free, so the effective rate dips about 10% at higher counts.
- Team members are a second, separate cost: $2 a month each on Professional, $3 on Business, with the plan owner already included.
- X (Twitter) needs a paid plan because of X's API pricing; it can't be connected on the Free plan at all.
- There's a permanent Free plan (3 accounts, no X) plus a 7-day trial of Professional and a 14-day trial of Business, no card required.
- Annual billing is roughly 20% cheaper per account ($5 to $4 on Professional, $10 to $8 on Business). Listed prices exclude VAT, and there's a 14-day money-back guarantee.
- Prices are USD. The live pricing page renders client-side and geo-located to Australia here, showing AUD, but it also prints an explicit US-dollar figure per plan; the USD numbers were read directly and confirmed by toggling monthly and yearly, and they match current third-party 2026 listings.
