Skip it if

You need Instagram, TikTok, Facebook or YouTube. Typefully covers text-first networks only.

Overview

Typefully is a writing tool first and a scheduler second. The vendor describes its audience as creators and businesses, claims 10,000+ customers, and calls itself a small remote team without giving a headcount. The directory lists five networks: X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky and Mastodon. It also publishes Substack Notes, which falls outside that list and is limited to Notes: up to 10,000 characters, up to 6 images or GIFs, no video, no long-form newsletters.

Pricing needs a caveat. The pricing page renders client side and shows no readable figures in plain text, so the amounts below come from the vendor's own site code, and you should confirm them at checkout. The vendor's help articles name three plans: Free, Creator and Business. Free is 1 social set and 10 posts a month with no AI assistant or analytics. Creator is $8.25 a month billed as $99 a year, yearly only, for 1 social set, 1,000 posts a month, AI and analytics, but no teams. Business is $20 a month, or $18 on annual billing, per social set, up to 50 sets, 1,500 posts a month and unlimited team members. A social set is one account per network, and the collaboration article says inviting collaborators needs Business or a legacy Team or Agency plan.

In shape it differs from the broad schedulers. There is no inbox, no listening, no media library, no link in bio and no bulk upload in what the vendor documents. What it has instead is depth on text networks: X threads of up to 50 posts, polls on X, LinkedIn, Threads and Mastodon (added October 12), quote posts on Bluesky, Mastodon and Substack, reply controls on X, LinkedIn PDF carousels up to 100 MB and 300 pages, and X-only growth tools such as auto-retweet, auto-plug and auto-DM.

Recent changes lean toward AI and agents: a Claude connector listed on 2026-09-18, and on 2026-10-20 a Writing Assistant that works through open draft comments. The vendor also published a post-mortem for a security incident dated 2026-06-09, where a changelog CMS was exploited, 153 users were affected, and the vendor says passwords and connected account credentials were not exposed. I did not find a SOC 2, ISO 27001, SSO, 2FA or status page statement. The privacy policy cites GDPR rights and Standard Contractual Clauses, and the vendor lists OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI and Groq as AI subprocessors, saying data is never used for model training.

What it does well

It handles the text networks in more detail than most broad tools, including threads of up to 50 posts on X, quote posts on Bluesky and Mastodon, and a choice of who can reply to X posts.
Scheduling follows each social set's own time zone, and the queue offers saved slots, a Next slot option and Suggested Times on X, plus Natural Posting Times that adds up to 4 minutes of variation.
The people side is loose: no cap on teammates, four roles from Read-only to Admin, free-account members can join paid teams, and anyone with a draft link and a free account can comment.
API keys carry READ, WRITE, PUBLISH or ADMIN permission per social set, and Zapier and MCP are listed as integrations.
LinkedIn gets a first comment that goes live with the post and PDF carousel upload, so you do not need a separate designer step.

What to watch out for

Analytics cover X only, default to the last 30 days, and older data comes on request through support. LinkedIn analytics are described as in development.
X Articles need X Premium, publish to X only and cannot be cross-posted. For X video the vendor's pages give a 10 minute cap in the media formats article and also mention 2:20 for third-party apps, so check that if long video matters to you.
The time zone belongs to the social set and does not update when you travel, which suits a fixed audience and annoys frequent movers.
Planned posts are not in the public API or Zapier yet, and a planned post becomes unpublished if its time passes.
Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube are not supported; the scheduling page FAQ lists Facebook, Instagram and TikTok as planned. A 2024 changelog said Threads needed at least Creator, and I found no current rule, so verify that.

Plans and prices

Plan	Billed monthly	Billed annually, per month	Unit	What you get
Free	$0	$0	per month	1 social set, 10 posts/month
Creator	Not published	$8.25	per month (billed $99/year)	1 social set, 1,000 posts/month, AI, analytics; no teams
Business	$20	$18	per social set per month	Up to 50 social sets, 1,500 posts/month, unlimited team members

Free plan: 1 social set, 10 posts/month, no AI assistant or analytics; API/Zapier/MCP included

The figures come from the vendor's site code, because the pricing page renders client side and shows nothing readable in plain text, so confirm at checkout. Creator is $99 a year ($8.25 a month), yearly only, and covers one social set with no teams. Business is $20 a month, or $18 on annual billing, per social set, so teammates are free but each extra brand or account group adds a full per-set charge. Post volume is the second limit: 10 a month on Free, 1,000 on Creator, 1,500 on Business. The cheap entry price stops being true when you need collaborators or a second social set. AI has no credits, only daily and monthly limits with no numbers stated, and Extra Usage at token cost plus 20% is off by default. Refund requests are accepted within 14 days.

Pick Typefully if

Pick Typefully if your audience lives on X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky or Mastodon and you care more about how a post is written and previewed than about a wide channel list. It also suits a small team that wants unlimited collaborators. Skip it if you need Instagram, Facebook, TikTok or YouTube, or if you need analytics beyond X. Skip it too if you must see a price on the vendor's page before you start.

How we checked

The pricing page is fully client-rendered. Prices come from the official typefully.com JavaScript bundle: the active catalog is 'social_sets_2026_07', with Creator at yearlyPrice 99 (displayed as yearly) and Business at $20/mo or $216/yr per social set. Creator has a monthlyPrice of 10 in the config, but a feature flag ('creatorPlanYearlyOnly') hides monthly billing, so monthly is null. A third-party post (OpenTweet, 2026-10-17) confirms Creator $99/yr yearly-only and Business $20/$18. A 'social set' = one account per network. Also publishes to Substack. The API is available on all plans.
