SocialBee is built around content categories: you sort posts into buckets and it cycles through them on a schedule, recycling the evergreen ones so the queue keeps going without you refilling it by hand. Plans are set by how many social profiles you connect, from $29 a month for five up to the agency tiers, with no permanent free plan, just a 14-day trial.

The discounts come from frequent promotions; a 50%-off birthday sale (code SBDAY2026) was live when this was checked, ending June 10, 2026.
