Metricool
Plan, publish and measure social media and ads for one brand or fifty, with a free plan and an AI assistant.
What Metricool is
Metricool brings social media planning, publishing, analytics and reporting into one dashboard, and covers ad accounts as well as organic posts. Each brand in Metricool can connect one profile per network across Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Pinterest, TikTok, YouTube, Twitch, LinkedIn and Google Business Profile, plus a website or blog and Facebook, Google and TikTok ads. X (Twitter) needs a $10 a month add-on per connected account.
Its AI social media assistant is included on every plan, with a monthly credit allowance per brand. Metricool also offers an MCP server and, on Advanced, an API for Zapier, Make and your own tools. Flows automate replies, such as turning comments into DMs, and Smartlinks provide a link-in-bio page.
Where Metricool is the strongest pick
Freelancers and agencies that manage several brands and need analytics and client-ready reports as much as scheduling: competitor tracking, unlimited analytics history on paid plans, and PDF and PPT reports, priced per brand rather than per user.
