Why people are leaving Agorapulse
Every user pays the full price. Agorapulse charges per user. Standard costs $79, Professional $119 and Advanced $149 a month for each user, billed yearly ($99, $149 and $199 billed monthly). A team of three on Standard pays $237 a month.
X is a paid add-on. An X profile connects only through an add-on: X Lite at $29 a month for publishing, or X Plus at $69 for publishing, the inbox and reports, per X profile (Agorapulse help center, August 24, 2026).
Ten profiles for the whole team. The 10 social profiles in Standard, Professional and Advanced are shared by all users, so adding a user adds no profiles. Each extra profile costs $10 a month billed yearly, or $15 billed monthly.
The free plan ended. Agorapulse ended its free plan on July 6, 2026. The free Archie plan that replaced it creates posts with Agorapulse's AI only, on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube.
Key tools start on Professional. First comments, approvals, the link in bio page, ad comments and Canva start on Professional at $119 per user a month billed yearly. CSV bulk scheduling needs Advanced, and the Open API the Custom plan.
What Agorapulse still does better
- A deeper inbox: 8 networks, Google Business and Facebook reviews, moderation rules, ad comments on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn from Professional, and saved replies and sentiment on Advanced.
- Client reporting: white-label PDF reports and a Google Analytics ROI report on every plan, team performance reports from Professional, PowerPoint exports on Advanced.
- Social listening and employee advocacy as paid add-ons, and competitor benchmarking on Advanced.
- A native app for iOS and Android on every plan, plus an Instagram grid preview, a link in bio page and Canva from Professional.
- A 30-day free trial without a credit card.
If customer care and client reports fill your day, Agorapulse is the stronger inbox and reporting tool. OmniSocials has no listening, no Google review replies and no native app yet.

What you get with OmniSocials
One calendar, filled by you or your AI agent
Plan in a week or month view, keep drafts in the tray and preview each post the way each platform shows it. Connect Claude, ChatGPT or another agent through the MCP server, and the posts it schedules land on the same calendar for you to check. How the MCP server works
One inbox for 7 platforms
DMs, comments and mentions from Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, X and Threads in one list, on every seat. Agorapulse's inbox covers 8 networks and Google reviews, with X only on the $69 X Plus add-on. See the inbox
Repost automations
Post on one platform and let an automation repost it to the others on your schedule, for example your Instagram Reels to TikTok, one a day at 9:00 AM. Automations can also bring in your older posts from 8 platforms. See automations
Approvals for teams and clients
Add approval steps per workspace, so a teammate or client signs off before a post goes live. Reviewers comment, request changes or approve, and roles decide who can post, reply or see analytics. Agorapulse starts approvals on Professional, at $119 per user a month billed yearly. See collaboration
Agorapulse has an MCP connector and an API too. Here is how they compare.
Agorapulse's MCP connector is in beta: it reads the inbox and analytics and creates drafts. Its REST API needs the Custom plan and also creates drafts instead of publishing. OmniSocials gives every seat an API, an MCP server, SDKs, a CLI and webhooks that schedule and publish on 12 platforms, also during the trial.
