Head to head
Planoly vs Typefully
Last updated 4 June 2026
Planoly grew up as an Instagram feed planner and still leads with the visual side: drag posts around a grid preview until the profile looks right, then schedule them, with a link-in-bio page that can sell digital products. It publishes to eight networks and prices in flat plans from a free mobile tier to $47 a month.
- From
- $14 /mo
- 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.

- $12.5 per social set / mo

Bottom line
Planoly and Typefully both cover the basics; the right one comes down to how you post. Planoly is the stronger pick for Instagram-led creators who plan their grid visually; choose Typefully for Writers, founders, and creators focused on X and LinkedIn.
