Planable

Overview

Planable describes itself as a collaboration-first tool for planning, approving, scheduling and analyzing content. Its homepage lists feed, calendar, Instagram grid and list views, comments and suggestions on posts, one-time feedback links, customizable step-by-step approvals with a kanban tab, separate workspaces per brand, labels, a shared media library, and bulk actions across workspaces. It lists scheduling for nine platforms plus a unified inbox and social listening.

The pricing unit is the workspace, not the seat. Basic has unlimited users, 4 social pages, 60 posts per month, no public API, and 1 X post per 24 hours. Pro has unlimited users, 10 social pages, 150 posts per month, required approvals and a public API. Enterprise has 50 social pages per workspace, unlimited posts, multi-level approvals and SSO at custom pricing.

The trial is capped at 50 posts in total with no time limit and no card, and X publishing is off during it.

Add-on prices on the page are inconsistent (for example Analytics $12 versus $14), so I have not recorded them.

Plans and prices

Planable prices per workspace per month. Basic is $39 ($33 annually) and Pro is $59 ($49 annually); Enterprise is custom. Users are unlimited, so adding reviewers costs nothing. The limits that matter are social pages (4, 10, 50) and posts per month (60, 150, unlimited). Analytics, the social inbox and social listening are add-ons on top of the plan, and each additional brand means another workspace. A heavy poster will hit the 60-post cap on Basic well before the user count matters.
