Last updated 4 June 2026
vs
Metricool started as an analytics tool and it still leads with reporting, pulling paid ads in next to organic and going deeper than the price suggests. Pricing is set by how many brands you connect, the free plan is one of the most generous around, and a few networks sit behind a paywall.

- $20 per month
- Free plan
Typefully is a writing-first tool for the text platforms. It's the go-to for drafting and scheduling X threads, and now LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads, and Mastodon too, with a clean editor and genuinely good AI writing. It's priced per social set and ignores the visual networks entirely.
