Head to head

Planable vs X Pro

Planable

Planable organizes content review by workspace. Pro is $59 per workspace monthly or $590 yearly, with required approval and 150 posts per month. Analytics is a separate per-workspace purchase, and public links allow comments rather than formal account-free approval.

X Pro

X Pro is X's multi-column workspace for monitoring timelines and searches while managing publishing. Legacy Premium+ explicitly includes it; the new X Subscription maps eligible personal accounts to full Premium+ benefits, so verify the subscription family and intended account before paying.

X Pro is the pick for people who regularly monitor several X timelines and searches. Planable fits agencies and teams that need client sign-off before posting better, and it's the only one of the two with a free scheduling plan.

  • The free allowance is 50 created posts total, without a reset when posts are deleted. X publishing is unavailable on the free allowance; Basic permits one tweet per 24 hours.
  • Analytics is $14/month or $140/year, Social Inbox $9/month or $90/year, and Social Listening $99/month or $990/year, each per workspace. Add-on trials require a paid base plan.
  • Enterprise entitlements require a quote: current official pages conflict on page limits and whether Analytics/Social Inbox are included. Volume discounts are advertised for five or more workspaces; do not assume a mandatory five-workspace ceiling.

What it really costs

Monthly cost by workspace count. Per-unit tiers grow with usage; flat tiers keep their whole-plan price within the published allowance, with the 3-workspace row marked as a realistic setup.

X Pro

Legacy US web Premium+

US$40 monthly or US$395 annually

  • Legacy X help explicitly includes Pro in Premium+
  • Confirm the existing account's renewal amount and access

The X Subscription Premium

$30 monthly or $300 annually; currency unconfirmed

  • New Premium includes full Premium+ benefits for eligible connected personal accounts
  • Pro access follows from the documented benefit mapping; account access has not been tested
  • Organization-managed and affiliate accounts cannot use this personal-account connection route
  • Pro is bundled with subscription benefits. Legacy Premium and new Premium are different packages; the plan name alone does not establish Pro access.
  • Legacy US web Premium+ lists US$40 monthly or US$395 annually. The new Premium document displays $30 monthly or $300 annually before sales tax without explicitly naming the currency.
  • Within the legacy US option, twelve monthly payments total US$480 versus US$395 annually. Within the new displayed-dollar option, twelve monthly payments total $360 versus $300 annually. Confirm currency and eligibility before comparing the two options.
  • Existing subscribers may keep their current plan; the official overview says a completed switch is permanent. Confirm renewal and refund treatment, including any store-billed subscription.
  • The new subscription excludes organization-managed and affiliate accounts from personal-account connection. It should not be purchased on the assumption that it will unlock a client's managed account.
