Our verdict on SocialBu API
SocialBu API gives developers programmatic tools for social media publishing, post management, media uploading, account connections, analytics, teams, notifications, and AI content generation. It is aimed at businesses, teams, agencies, and application builders that want to add social workflows without implementing each network integration separately. The product is available through web, iOS, Android, a Chrome extension, and an API, with support for Facebook, X, Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, Mastodon, Pinterest, Bluesky, and Google Business Profile.
Pricing supports a limited starting point, then expands by plan. The Free plan supports up to 3 social accounts and 10 lifetime posts, but does not include API access. Starter costs $29 per month when billed monthly or $22 per month when billed annually, adding publishing and scheduling, API and MCP Server access, and basic analytics. Growth costs $79 monthly or $59 monthly with annual billing, adding advanced analytics, a social inbox, automation, and collaboration. Agency costs $199 monthly or $149 monthly with annual billing and includes the same listed feature set. A Custom plan offers custom account limits or support, and a 7-day free trial is available.
Its main advantage is breadth: the API covers create, retrieve, update, and delete operations for posts, media status monitoring, connected-account management, post, account, hashtag, and team analytics, team creation, AI content generation, autocomplete, and notification management. That makes SocialBu API a fit for teams building multi-network publishing or analytics workflows. It may be less suitable for a small project that only needs occasional posting, because API access starts with a paid plan and the Free plan is restricted to a small account and post allowance.
