  • 250 scheduled and 200 published posts per profile a month, advanced analytics
  • 25,000 AI words a month
  • Two plans, Pro and Team, with a slider: the base price covers 5 social profiles and the bundled users, and you add more profiles and users to scale, so the monthly cost grows with the slider. SmarterQueue recently replaced its older Solo / Business / Agency lineup with this Pro / Team-plus-slider structure.
  • There's no free plan, only a free trial whose timer starts after your first queued post rather than at signup.
  • Annual billing is 15% cheaper: at the 5-profile base, Pro is $21 a month and Team $42.
  • Extra social profiles and extra users are add-ons priced through the slider. AI caption writing is metered (10,000 words a month on Pro, 25,000 on Team), and X posting is capped at 5 tweets a week.
  • Nonprofits, charities, schools, and full-time students get 50% off.
  • Prices are USD, read off the live pricing page with the currency switched to USD and the billing toggled; the GBP figures (about £17 and £34 a month on annual) cross-check to the same numbers.
