Head to head
Typefully vs X Pro
Last updated 4 June 2026
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.
- From
- $12.5 per social set / mo
- Free plan
X Pro is the rebuilt TweetDeck: a multi-column dashboard for power users on X, with post and thread scheduling, real-time search columns, and multi-account monitoring. As of 2026 it's locked behind X's $40-a-month Premium+ tier, which is the catch.

Bottom line
Typefully and X Pro both cover the basics; the right one comes down to how you post. Typefully is the stronger pick for Writers, founders, and creators focused on X and LinkedIn; choose X Pro for Heavy X users and community managers who live in the timeline.

- X Pro is bundled with X Premium+ (about $40/mo, $395/yr)
- Column-based decks, multi-account monitoring, post and thread scheduling
- Access to multiple X accounts you control
- X Pro isn't sold on its own. It used to come with the cheaper X Premium plan (around $8/mo), but in March 2026 X moved it behind the top X Premium+ tier, roughly $40 a month (about $395 a year), so the real cost of using X Pro is a Premium+ subscription.
- It only manages X, so the value is entirely about how much you live on that one network.
- X has signalled a replacement product may follow, so the access terms here may change.
