Metricool prices by brand rather than by user or profile, which makes it cheap for freelancers and small agencies with several small clients. The free plan manages one brand across most networks, schedules up to 20 posts a month, tracks 5 competitors and keeps 30 days of analytics, though it leaves out LinkedIn and X. Starter, from $20 per month billed yearly for up to 5 brands and $36 for up to 10, adds unlimited publishing, LinkedIn, analytics with unlimited history, up to 100 competitors, PDF and PPT reports, multiple link in bio pages and Canva and Google Drive integration. Advanced, from $53 per month for up to 15 brands, adds team and client management, roles, post approvals, full X analytics, custom report templates, a Looker Studio connector and API access. Metricool also includes an inbox, ads reporting and an MCP connection for AI assistants. The catch is that collaboration features sit on Advanced and some features, such as X, are paid add-ons.
