What each plan costs, in each company's own units
Upload-Post prices per profile. PostWire prices per brand: one business with as many networks as it has — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and LinkedIn for the same business is still one brand. Compare the row that matches your own setup, not the tier names.

The same two setups, priced on both
Tier names hide the thing that decides your bill: what counts as one unit. PostWire counts a brand — one business with every network it uses. Upload-Post counts a profile. Here is what that does to two setups people actually have.

Which one should you actually pick
Choose Upload-Post if…
You need unlimited uploads at a fixed price, or the white-label integration on their $50 tier, and you do not need TikTok on the free plan to evaluate it.
Choose PostWire if…
You want to test TikTok publishing before paying anything, you want the cheapest paid entry ($9 against $24), you group networks by business rather than counting profiles, or you want an MCP server your agent can call directly.
The free-tier difference that matters
Upload-Post's free plan explicitly excludes TikTok, which is the platform whose API approval is hardest to obtain and the one most people want to test first. PostWire's free plan includes it — 30 posts a month, no card.
Where Upload-Post is genuinely ahead
Unlimited uploads on every paid plan, generous video processing minutes, and a white-label option. If you publish very high volumes, metered plans like PostWire's are the wrong shape.
What PostWire does that most of these do not
A native post per network from one idea. Smart Distribute writes the caption each platform rewards — length, hashtags, SEO and format — instead of pasting identical text everywhere.
It refuses posts that are going to fail. TikTok and YouTube reject anything without a video; Instagram rejects text-only. PostWire blocks that combination while you are writing, rather than reporting four errors after you hit publish.
A real MCP server, not just an API. One tool call from Claude, Cursor or any agent — plus n8n templates if you prefer no code.
Platform approvals already granted. TikTok Direct Post and Meta advanced access were approved for PostWire, so connecting is an OAuth click instead of a review queue.
It depends on your setup, and the two tools do not count in the same unit. Upload-Post prices per profile; PostWire prices per brand — one business with as many networks as it has — from free (1 brand) to $299 (200). The tables on this page list both so you can check your own number rather than trust a headline.
When should I choose Upload-Post instead of PostWire?
You need unlimited uploads at a fixed price, or the white-label integration on their $50 tier, and you do not need TikTok on the free plan to evaluate it.
When is PostWire the better choice?
You want to test TikTok publishing before paying anything, you want the cheapest paid entry ($9 against $24), you group networks by business rather than counting profiles, or you want an MCP server your agent can call directly.
Does PostWire have a free plan?
Yes: one brand with all of its networks and 30 posts a month, no card required, TikTok included.
Does Upload-Post have a free plan?
Free plan: 10 uploads a month, 2 profiles, TikTok excluded.
Can an AI agent post through PostWire?
Yes. PostWire ships a REST API and a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, so Claude, Cursor or any agent can publish with one tool call, and there are n8n templates that do it without code.
