Head to head
Pinterest scheduler vs Planable
Last updated 4 June 2026
Pinterest lets business accounts schedule pins natively, free. It's the simplest way to queue pins in advance, but the caps are tight: one pin at a time, up to 30 days out, and only ten waiting in the queue.

- Custom
- Free plan
A content-review tool first and a scheduler second, built around comments, approvals, and seeing exactly how a post will look before anyone signs off. It charges per workspace rather than per person, so the whole team can pile in at no extra cost.
- From
- $33 per workspace / mo
- Free plan
Bottom line
Pinterest scheduler and Planable both cover the basics; the right one comes down to how you post. Pinterest scheduler is the stronger pick for Light pinners who want free scheduling; choose Planable for Agencies and teams that need client sign-off before posting.

- Priced per workspace, which is Planable's word for a brand or client: the headline $39 / $59 is for one workspace, and you pay again for each one you add, up to five before Enterprise. Users are unlimited on every plan.
- Annual billing is two months free, so Basic works out to $33 a workspace each month ($390/yr) and Pro to $49 ($590/yr).
- Two paid add-ons sit on top, also per workspace: Analytics at $14/mo and the Engagement social inbox at $9/mo, both about two months cheaper on annual.
- The Free plan caps you at 50 posts for the life of the account rather than by time; after that you upgrade.
- Prices are USD from the live pricing page, which renders client-side and defaulted to the annual figures here in Australia. The monthly numbers were read by toggling the billing switch and match current third-party listings.
