Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
SocialBu AI is a social media management product for creators, marketers, teams, growing businesses, and agencies. It combines AI-generated captions and posts with scheduling, queues, drafts, calendar planning, network-specific publishing, analytics, automation, social listening, and inbox features. Accounts can be managed across Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, Mastodon, Pinterest, Bluesky, and Google Business Profile. Access is available through the web, iOS, Android, a Chrome extension, and an API.
The plans scale mainly by account limits, publishing volume, analytics, and collaboration features. Free supports up to 3 social accounts, 10 lifetime posts, and basic AI writer access. Starter costs $29 per month or $261 per year and supports up to 8 accounts, 750 monthly posts, and basic analytics; it does not include a social inbox. Growth costs $79 per month or $711 per year for up to 20 accounts, 3,000 monthly posts, advanced analytics, a social inbox, and team collaboration. Agency costs $199 per month or $1,791 per year, supports up to 50 accounts, and includes unlimited monthly posts, advanced analytics, a social inbox, and agency-oriented collaboration. The published starting price is $22 per month with annual billing, and a 7-day free trial is available.
Its strongest fit is for teams managing substantial publishing calendars across several networks. AI autocomplete, customized publishing, RSS feeds, webhooks, social listening, and calendar planning support a workflow that extends beyond basic scheduling. API and MCP Server access also suit programmatic or conversational workflows, while Google Drive is listed as an integration. However, Starter is more limited for teams that need inbox-based engagement, and the category specifications list team users as zero. Choose SocialBu AI when high post volume, network breadth, and automation matter most; consider an alternative if shared team access is the primary requirement.
