Later is a planner first, built around a visual calendar where you drag media and text posts into place. Plans are sold in social sets, each holding one profile on each of the eight supported platforms: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Threads, YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Snapchat. Starter, at $18.75 per month billed yearly, covers one social set and one user, 30 posts per profile a month, 5 AI credits, 3 months of analytics and link in bio. Growth, at $37.50 per month billed yearly, adds a second set and user, the social inbox, internal and external approvals, custom roles, UGC collection, 180 posts per profile and a year of analytics. Scale, at $82.50, adds custom analytics, competitive benchmarking, Meta ads analytics, brand mentions and unlimited posts for four users. Extra users cost $3.75 per month each. Agencies with many clients will find social sets restrictive, and replying to comments only starts on Growth.
