Planly
Checked 26 Oct 2026 · source · 10 networks · API yes · AI yes
Instagram and TikTok focused creators and small teams who want a visual planner with unlimited media storage.
You need many accounts cheaply: extra channels cost $10 each a month and the entry plan allows 4 channels and 100 scheduled posts.
Overview
Planly presents itself as an all-in-one tool for scheduling, engagement and collaboration. The homepage describes a visual content planner with a drag-and-drop calendar, automated posting, an inbox for comments, messages and mentions, analytics and an AI assistant that generates content ideas. It is aimed, in my data, at Instagram and TikTok focused creators and small teams.
My notes list ten networks: TikTok, Instagram, Threads, Facebook, X, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Mastodon, YouTube and Bluesky. API access shows up as a feature row on the pricing page, marked as not available on the trial. Team adds CSV upload and 4 users, and the AI assistant runs on credits that grow with the plan: 100, 500 and 1,000.
The trial is 14 days and there is no free plan. When I read the page it carried promotional banners (including a $1 7-day trial offer), so the trial terms you see may differ from what I recorded. Entry limits are tight: 4 channels, 1 user and 100 scheduled posts, which is worth weighing before comparing price alone.
What it does well
- A visual drag-and-drop planner is the main pitch.
- It has a Mastodon and Bluesky option alongside the big networks.
- The Agency plan includes an approval flow.
- The Team and Agency plans have unlimited scheduling.
What to watch out for
- No free plan.
- The entry plan allows 4 channels, 1 user and 100 scheduled posts.
- Extra channels cost $10 each a month.
- API access is not available on the trial.
Plans and prices
| Plan | Billed monthly | Billed annually, per month | Unit | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Individual | $15 | $10 | per month ($120 billed yearly) | 100 scheduled posts, 4 social channels, 1 user, 100 AI credits |
| Team | $40 | $26 | per month ($312 billed yearly) | Unlimited scheduling, 8 channels, 4 users, 500 AI credits, CSV upload |
| Agency | $80 | $53 | per month ($636 billed yearly) | Unlimited scheduling, 16 channels, 8 users, 1,000 AI credits, approval flow |

Individual is $15 a month ($10 a month on the yearly toggle, $120 billed yearly), Team is $40 ($26, $312 yearly) and Agency is $80 ($53, $636 yearly). Enterprise is custom. The lever is channels and users together: 4 channels and 1 user, then 8 and 4, then 16 and 8, with AI credits at 100, 500 and 1,000. Add-ons are priced separately at $5 per extra user and $10 per extra channel, so a ninth channel on Team could cost less than jumping to Agency. The page showed promotional banners and strike-through prices, so recheck.
