- The pricing page displays dollar amounts without explicitly naming the currency. Numeric paid offers and monthly price comparisons are withheld until the currency is confirmed.
- Pro uses marginal bands: each connected account is charged at the rate for its position in the account count. The annual rates are monthly equivalents billed yearly.
- Starter includes three accounts and 15 monthly posts across the account. Its three-pending-post limit and seven-day scheduling horizon are separate restrictions.
- Pro advertises unlimited posts, while the rate-limit guide specifies 5,000 monthly posts per connection under fair use. Purchased account quantity determines connection capacity.

- Public-media ingestion has a separate 60-URL hourly limit. Receiving a scheduling response does not confirm publication on every destination.
- Video-upload limits are 50MB on Starter and 250MB on Pro; Agency is custom. Current refund policy advertises seven days from first payment.
