SocialBee alternative: a free plan with the API, and 10 businesses for $29 a month
SocialBee is a social media scheduler built around content categories, sold by the number of social profiles and workspaces. PostWire writes a different post for each network from one idea and publishes them — from the dashboard, the REST API, n8n or an AI agent — with a free plan and pricing per business.
Short answer. PostWire has a free plan with the REST API and the MCP server in it; SocialBee has a 14-day trial and then starts at $29 a month for 5 social profiles and 1 workspace. 10 businesses on 5 networks are $29 a month on PostWire against $179 on SocialBee Pro50 (50 social profiles, 10 workspaces), both billed monthly.
Every SocialBee price and feature here was read on SocialBee's own pages on Oct 13, 2026, with the link next to it. If they changed since, their page wins.

Where PostWire is better than SocialBee
- A free plan, not only a trial. 1 business, 20 posts a month, with the REST API and the MCP server, no card and no time limit. SocialBee's free trial lasts 14 days, and posting stops when it ends.
- Paid plans from $9 a month. PostWire Starter covers 3 businesses and 1,000 posts a month. SocialBee Bootstrap is $29 a month for 5 social profiles in 1 workspace.
- Per business, not per profile. 10 businesses on 5 networks are $29 a month on PostWire Pro. That is 50 social profiles in 10 workspaces: SocialBee Pro50, at $179 a month.
- Your team is in the plan. PostWire Starter has 3 seats for $9 a month in total. SocialBee Bootstrap and Accelerate have 1 user per workspace; an extra user is $10 a month.
- A REST API on every plan, the free one included: one POST to
/api/postpublishes,/api/schedulequeues. SocialBee's pricing and integrations pages list Zapier, Pabbly and Make, and no API of its own. - An MCP server and an n8n node, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or a workflow can write and schedule the posts. SocialBee's pricing and integrations pages list neither.
- Every network's post written in one request, from the dashboard, the API or an agent: one idea in, a TikTok hook, a YouTube title with tags and a LinkedIn post out.
- Mastodon, Telegram and Discord published directly, next to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook Pages, Bluesky and X. SocialBee lists 10 networks for direct posting; Mastodon and Telegram are under Universal Posting, which goes through its mobile app.
Who PostWire is for
- You want to publish from an API, n8n or an AI agent before paying: PostWire's free plan includes the API and the MCP server.
- You post for several businesses: 10 businesses × 5 networks is $29 here, against $179 a month on SocialBee Pro50.
- You want each network's post written for you from one idea, and published directly to Mastodon, Telegram or Discord too.
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 |
| SocialBee Pro50 | 10 businesses × 5 networks = 50 social profiles in 10 workspaces: Pro50 (50 social profiles, 10 workspaces) at $179 a month billed monthly | $179 |
Monthly billing in USD, before tax. Both prices are per month on monthly billing; SocialBee takes 16% off on yearly billing. Its Pro plan ($99) stops at 25 social profiles and 5 workspaces; extra profiles are $15 a month per set of 5 and an extra workspace is $10 a month. Source: socialbee.com/pricing/, read on Oct 13, 2026; PostWire's prices come from the code that bills you.
What “a different post per network” means
PostWire writes each network's version from one idea in one request — a hook for TikTok, a searchable title and tags for YouTube, a longer first-person post for LinkedIn — and then publishes them. The same request works from the dashboard, the REST API, the n8n node or an AI agent.
The idea: Most people brush for about 45 seconds. Dentists recommend 2 minutes. Our clinic's tip: split your mouth in 4 and give each 30 seconds.
Brushing Teeth the Right Way 🦷 The 4-Zone Method
Most people brush their teeth for only 45 seconds — but proper teeth brushing takes a full 2 minutes. If hitting that goal feels impossible, this one simple trick will change your routine tonight. Dentists recommend the 4-zone method: divide your mouth into four sections — upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right — and spend exactly 30 seconds on each. That's it. Two minutes, zero guesswork, and actually clean teeth. In this video, we break down: • Why 45 seconds falls so far short • What plaque buildup looks like in that extra 75 seconds • How to build the 4-zone habit so it sticks • Tools that make timing easier (spoiler: your phone works fine) This is one of the most common things we see overlooked at our clinic, and it's one of the easiest fixes you can make today — no new products, no extra cost. If you've ever been told your gum health needs work at a checkup, this is probably why. #DentalHealth #BrushingTeeth #OralHygiene Drop a comment if you're going to try the 4-zone method tonight — we'd love to hear how it goes!
Most people brush their teeth for 45 seconds. Dentists recommend 2 minutes. That gap is costing people real dental health — and almost nobody knows it. Here's the simple fix we share with every patient at our clinic: Divide your mouth into 4 zones. Upper right. Upper left. Lower right. Lower left. Give each one 30 seconds. That's it. You've just hit 2 minutes without watching a timer or guessing. No new toothbrush. No app subscription. No lifestyle overhaul. Just a mental framework that turns a vague recommendation into something you can actually follow. Why does it matter so much? Plaque starts hardening into tartar in as little as 24–72 hours. Most of the damage happens in the spots people rush through — back molars, the gum line, the inner surfaces nobody sees. The 4-zone method forces you to slow down and be deliberate. We've seen patients dramatically improve their gum health scores simply by fixing their brushing time — before changing anything else. Small habits, compounded daily, create outsized results. This applies to oral health. It applies to most things in life. If you work in healthcare, wellness, or patient education — what's the smallest habit change you've seen create the biggest impact for the people you serve? #DentalHealth #PreventiveCare #PatientEducation
