Blotato alternative: a free plan with the API and MCP included
Blotato is a content engine for creators, priced by connected accounts plus AI credits, with no free plan. PostWire writes a different post per network from one idea and publishes it automatically, with the API and MCP on a free plan and pricing per business.
Short answer. PostWire's free plan includes the REST API and the MCP server; Blotato has no free plan, and generating an API key ends its trial. PostWire writes every network's version automatically in one request (on Blotato you ask its chat), and 10 businesses on 5 networks are $29 a month against $499 on Blotato Agency.
Every Blotato price and feature here was read on Blotato's own pages on 22 Oct 2026, with the link next to it. If they changed since, their page wins. Full side-by-side with today's plans: Blotato alternative.

Where PostWire is better than Blotato
- A free plan with the API and MCP in it. 1 business, 10 posts a month, no card, no time limit. Blotato has no free plan, and its 7-day trial excludes the API: generating a key ends the trial and starts the paid Starter.
- Every network's post written automatically, from one idea, in one request — from the dashboard, REST, n8n or MCP. On Blotato you ask its chat for each rewrite.
- Per business, not per account. 10 businesses on 5 networks are $29 a month. 50 accounts are over Blotato Creator's 40, so Agency: $499.
- An image or a short video from your words, with no credits. "Make an image from this post" and "Make a video from this post" turn the caption into an image card (1080×1350 or 1080×1920) or an 8–12 s vertical video, on every plan. Blotato's visuals and video spend AI credits (1,250 a month on Starter).
- Mastodon, Telegram and Discord, next to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook Pages, Bluesky and X. Blotato's list of platforms has none of the three.
- Team seats, roles and approvals built in. From $9 a month posts can wait for a person's approval, and Pro includes 25 seats with roles (contributor, approver, viewer…). Blotato's FAQ says it has no built-in team seats, roles or approval workflows (read Oct 5, 2026).
Who PostWire is for
- You want to test the API and MCP before paying: PostWire's free plan includes both.
- You want each network's post written from one idea, automatically, not by asking the chat each time.
- You manage many businesses: 10 businesses × 5 networks is $29 here, against $499 on Blotato Agency.
10 businesses on 5 networks each: the monthly bill
An agency or a freelancer with ten clients, each on five networks, about 20 posts per client a month. That is 50 connected accounts, which is where the pricing unit decides the bill.
| Tool | How it's counted | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| PostWire Pro | 10 businesses fit in Pro (10 businesses, unlimited posts, fair use 10,000 a month; 10 × 20 posts × 5 networks = 1,000) | $29 |
| Blotato Agency | 50 accounts are over Creator's 40, so Agency (100 accounts) | $499 |
Monthly billing in USD, before tax. Source: www.blotato.com/pricing, read on 22 Oct 2026; PostWire's prices come from the code that bills you.
What “a different post per network” means
Blotato publishes the text you send it. PostWire writes each network's version first — a hook for TikTok, a searchable title and tags for YouTube, a longer first-person post for LinkedIn — and then publishes them.
The idea: We're a family bakery. This Saturday we launch sourdough cinnamon rolls, and the first 50 are free with any coffee.
Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls Launch 🍥 First 50 Are FREE!
Our sourdough cinnamon rolls are finally here — and this Saturday, the first 50 are completely free with any coffee order. We're a family bakery, and these sourdough cinnamon rolls have been weeks in the making. The tang of a slow-fermented sourdough dough wrapped around a buttery cinnamon filling is something we couldn't wait to share with our community. If you've been curious about what makes sourdough bakes different from regular yeasted pastries, this roll is a great place to start. The fermentation process adds depth of flavor that you simply can't rush — and trust us, we tried. 😄 #sourdoughcinnamonrolls #familybakery #sourdough This Saturday only — come early, quantities are limited to the first 50 guests. Pair it with your go-to coffee order and let us know what you think in the comments below. We'd love to see you there. If you're not local, drop a comment and tell us what baked goods you'd travel for — we're always looking for inspiration for new recipes.
We've been a family bakery for years. This Saturday, we're doing something we've never done before. We're launching sourdough cinnamon rolls — and the first 50 are free with any coffee. This wasn't a quick decision. We tested the recipe for weeks. Got the fermentation time wrong. Twice. Overproofed a whole batch on a Tuesday. And then one morning, we pulled a tray out of the oven and just… knew. The slow ferment gives the dough a subtle tang that cuts through the sweetness of the cinnamon filling. It's the kind of thing that's hard to describe but impossible to miss when you taste it. We're a small, family-run operation. We don't have a marketing budget or a PR team. What we have is an oven, a sourdough starter that's older than our youngest kid, and a neighborhood we genuinely love feeding. Launching something new is always a little nerve-wracking — you never quite know if the thing you've poured your energy into will land the way you hoped. But that's also what makes it exciting. If you're local, come find us this Saturday. First 50 sourdough cinnamon rolls are on us with any coffee order. Come early — we don't expect them to last long. And if you're not nearby, I'm curious — what's the best thing you've ever eaten from a small, independent bakery? Drop it in the comments. 👇 #FamilyBusiness #Sourdough #SmallBusiness
