Head to head

MeetEdgar vs Pinterest scheduler

MeetEdgar

MeetEdgar more or less invented category-based evergreen recycling: you sort posts into buckets, set a weekly schedule, and it reshares from those buckets forever so the queue never empties. It's a focused tool with two flat plans, no free tier, and a 30-day trial.

Bottom line

Pinterest scheduler is the pick for light pinners who want free scheduling, and it's the only one of the two with a free scheduling plan. MeetEdgar fits creators and small businesses with a backlog of evergreen content better, and it reaches Facebook and Instagram among others, which Pinterest scheduler doesn't.

MeetEdgar starts at $24.91 a month, billed yearly, and Pinterest scheduler is free, with no paid plan. MeetEdgar adds evergreen recycling and a social inbox that Pinterest scheduler leaves out.
