Stop paying a tax on your own growth.
Plans are sized by how much you post. Connected brand, client, and location accounts are unlimited on every paid plan — your 10th brand and your 100th cost the same to run.
Publishly pricing starts free and tops out at $299/mo. Every paid plan includes unlimited connected social accounts — plans are sized by how much you post, not how many accounts you run.

The growth-tax calculator
Slide to your account count. Competitor totals come from their published pricing pages — Publishly stays flat because plans are sized by post volume.
The comparison anchor. Your Publishly price depends on how much you post, not on 100accounts — Starter is $29, Scale is $299, all with unlimited connected accounts.
$599/mo includes 30 profiles; each extra profile is $8.99/mo, billed monthly.
$12 per channel on monthly billing ($10 when billed annually), at 100 channels.
Metricool caps at 50 brands — no published plan covers 100 accounts.

Three ways to price the same job.
None of these models is a scam — they just reward different customers. Here’s who each one actually fits.
Per-profile
Every account you connect has a price on it. Ayrshare’s Business plan is $599/mo including 30 profiles, then $8.99/mo for each one after — the published math works out to $1,228.30/mo at 100 profiles. The model scales cleanly for the vendor, and against you.
Per-channel
Buffer’s Team plan is $12 per channel on monthly billing ($10 when billed annually). Fair at 5 channels; at 30 it is $360 a month. Your software bill follows your channel count instead of your posting volume.
Flat, sized by successful posts
Publishly prices confirmed delivery — not attempts or account count. $29, $99, or $299 flat, unlimited connected accounts on all three. Failed, cancelled, and unconfirmed posts use no quota.
Choose Ayrshare ifyou’re buying enterprise API breadth — it’s a deep, API-first platform — and per-profile pricing fits the number of profiles you actually run.
Choose Metricool ifyou want an all-in-one analytics suite and you’ll stay under its 50-brand cap.
Choose Publishly ifyou’re running a growing roster of brands or clients and want your bill to stop tracking your account count.
Fair questions
How much does it cost to post to 100 accounts?
On Publishly, the same as posting to 5: $29–$299/mo depending on how much you post, because every paid plan includes unlimited connected accounts. For comparison, Ayrshare’s published Business pricing works out to $1,228.30/mo at 100 profiles, and 30 Buffer Team channels cost $360 on monthly billing.
Is there a free social media posting API?
Yes. Publishly’s Free plan is $0 and includes API access — 50 confirmed-live posts a month across 5 connected accounts. Paid plans start at $29/mo with unlimited connected accounts.
Do failed posts count against my plan?
No. Publishly writes one usage unit only after an independent platform read confirms that destination is live. Failed, cancelled, retrying, sent-but-unconfirmed, and ambiguous posts consume no quota; confirmation replays cannot double-count.
What happens if I exceed my monthly posts?
You move up a tier — there are no per-post overage fees. Starter’s 2,000 confirmed-live posts step up to Growth’s 15,000, and Growth steps up to Scale’s 100,000. Your account count never factors into it: connected accounts are unlimited on every paid plan.
Is there a yearly discount?
Yes. Yearly billing is 10× the monthly price — two months free. Starter is $290/yr, Growth is $990/yr, Scale is $2,990/yr.
