- Annual monthly equivalent $18 per set; dollar currency unconfirmed

- Unlimited users; table lists 1,500 posts per month
- 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.
- A social set groups one person or brand and allows one account per platform. Two separate X identities require two sets even when one person manages both.
- Creator is annual-only at a displayed $99 bill for one set and one user. Its $8.25 monthly equivalent is not a monthly payment option.
- Business charges for each set. Its capacity of 50 sets does not mean 50 included sets. Unlimited collaborators do not each need a separate paid subscription.
- Two Business sets cost a displayed $40 on monthly billing or $432 for the year, equivalent to $36 per month, before applicable tax.
- Free lists ten monthly posts; Creator lists 1,000 and Business 1,500. The paid allowance scope per set versus subscription, and cross-post/thread counting, need confirmation before scaling output.
- Substack support means Substack Notes, rather than newsletter delivery. X Articles require an eligible X subscription.
