MeetEdgar vs Tailwind
Last updated 4 June 2026
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.

Tailwind now sells Pinterest-only tools for new subscribers: scheduling and creation, SEO, engagement, or a bundle. Instagram and Facebook remain legacy-plan capabilities. Free onboarding actions are finite and do not reset monthly.
