Planable review
A collaboration-led social platform with approvals, planning, analytics, and inbox tools.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Planable is a social media management and content collaboration platform for agencies, brands, and marketing teams. Its shared workspaces bring post creation, editing, commenting, approval, scheduling, and analysis into one workflow. Teams can publish across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Google Business Profile, TikTok, Pinterest, and Threads, while broader marketing content such as blogs, newsletters, press releases, and content briefs can also fit into the platform. Web, iOS, Android, API access, and integrations with Zapier, Slack, Canva, viaSocket, and the MCP Connector support different working environments.
Collaboration and approvals are Planable's clearest strengths. The Basic plan costs $39 per workspace per month and includes 60 posts per workspace per month, unlimited users, four social pages, feed and calendar views, and an optional approval workflow. Pro costs $59 per workspace per month, raises the allowance to 150 posts and 10 social pages, adds required approvals, grid views, and a public API. Enterprise adds unlimited posts and social pages, multi-level approvals, SSO integration, a dedicated account manager, and custom pricing. The free plan allows 50 total created posts with no time limit, making it useful for evaluating the core workflow.
Planable also reaches beyond planning with cross-channel analytics, customizable reports, and a unified inbox for comments and direct messages. Analytics and Social Inbox are paid add-ons, each with a 30-day free trial, so teams should account for those costs when comparing plans. The product fits organizations that need structured review and publishing across multiple channels, especially when unlimited users and approval controls matter. Teams seeking a lower-cost scheduler with analytics and inbox capabilities included in the base subscription may prefer an alternative.

- Advanced analytics, reports, and a unified social inbox extend beyond scheduling.
- Where it doesn't
- Basic starts at $39 per workspace per month, a relatively high entry price.
- Analytics and Social Inbox are paid add-ons rather than included features.
- The free plan is limited to 50 total created posts, while Basic allows 60 monthly posts.
