The Best Hootsuite Alternatives

People look for Hootsuite alternatives when they’re a creator or a small team paying for a big-company dashboard: $99 a user a month billed yearly, with 10 accounts on the entry plan, buys an inbox, analytics and seats they barely use. Here are the tools they move to, with prices from each company’s own site.

The alternatives

  1. 1. Typeshare

    Basic $19/month; All-Access (with AI agents) $49/month. Yearly billing is two months free.

    Our pick

    For one person, not a social media team. You do the writing; agents turn your own words into posts for X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky and Substack (newsletters too), make the visuals and publish on your schedule, with your approval first. From $19 a month. No Instagram, TikTok or Facebook yet.
