Pricing that follows your account count

SocialPilot prices per plan, not per account. Essentials includes 7 accounts and 1 user. Standard includes 15 accounts and 3 users, so a count between the two means paying for the bigger plan.

SocialPatra prices a plan as a base amount per month. The base price covers the first 2 accounts, and each extra account and each extra team member adds a small fee on top. There is no bundle to outgrow.

To price your own setup, enter your accounts and members on the SocialPatra pricing page.
