Ordinal sells team plans in tiers with a set number of social profiles. Teams that want to start free, post beyond LinkedIn, X and Instagram, and pay as accounts are added tend to move to a workspace-priced tool.

SocialPatra is built for that. Ordinal figures on this page come from Ordinal’s public pricing page, read on 23 October 2026.

Why people look past Ordinal

  • Starter is listed at $85 or $95 a month for 4 social profiles; the page does not label which is monthly.

  • There is no free plan, only a 14-day trial with no credit card.

Why SocialPatra is the switch

  • A Free plan that costs nothing, so you can test the workflow before you pay.
  • Workspace pricing: a low base plan, with a small fee for each extra account, instead of a tier with a fixed number of profiles.
  • One calendar for 18 live platforms: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon, YouTube, Pinterest and more.
  • Blogs and developer sites in the same workflow: WordPress, Medium, Dev.to and Hashnode.
  • Approvals built in: request a review, then approve, reject or ask for changes before a post goes out.
  • A REST API and a hosted MCP server on paid plans, so your own tools and AI assistants can schedule for you.
