Comparison

# Ravenpost vs Hootsuite

Both schedule one post out to many social accounts. This page compares what they cost at the same size and what each one does better — including the parts where Hootsuite wins.

Hootsuite's prices and features below were read from their own public pricing page on 2026-08-06. Prices move, so check ours against theirs: [Hootsuite pricing](https://www.hootsuite.com/plans)

## What you pay for the same number of accounts

Tiers aren't the same size on both products, so lining up “plan 1 vs plan 1” flatters whoever numbered theirs more generously. Instead: the cheapest plan on each product that covers the accounts you actually have.

| Connected accounts | Ravenpost | Hootsuite | You save |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 5 accounts | $14 | $99 | $85 |
| 15 accounts | $24 | $199 | $175 |
| 50 accounts | $49 | $199 | $150 |

Hootsuite quotes per seat on annual billing, so $99 is one user paying a year up front — a three-person team on Standard is $297 a month. It does not publish a monthly-billing price, so the column understates what month-to-month actually costs.

Monthly billing, US dollars. A dash means no plan on that product covers that many accounts.

## Feature by feature

| Feature | Ravenpost | Hootsuite |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Free plan (not a trial) |     | 14-day trial |
| A different caption per platform |     |     |
| Per-platform preview before publishing |     |     |
| Recurring posting queue |     |     |
| Unlimited posts | Paid plans |     |
| Analytics included |     |     |
| MCP server (Claude, ChatGPT) |     | Wisdom AI connectors |
| Public API |     |     |
| Comment & message inbox |     |     |
| Approval workflow |     | Advanced plan |
| Social listening |     | Enterprise plan |
| Team seats |     | Billed per seat |
| AI content generation |     |     |

A dash means Hootsuite's pricing page doesn't mention that feature — it isn't a claim that they lack it. An amber check means partial support.

## Where Hootsuite is stronger

-   A unified inbox, social listening and employee advocacy — three product areas we do not have at all.
-   Unlimited social accounts from the Professional plan up, which we do not offer at any price.
-   Approvals, message routing and team performance reporting built for large teams.
-   Single sign-on and compliance tooling on Enterprise, plus twenty years of brand recognition.
-   An AI assistant with MCP connectors on every plan.

## Where Ravenpost is stronger

-   Fifteen accounts is $24 here against $199 a seat on Hootsuite.
-   Seats are not a multiplier: our Agency plan is $49 with unlimited seats, where Hootsuite bills every user separately.
-   A free plan that does not expire, against a 14-day trial that caps daily posting.
-   Telegram, Bluesky and Threads publishing, with a rendered preview per destination.
-   A monthly price published as a monthly price, not an annual figure divided by twelve.

## Platforms Ravenpost publishes to

-   Threads

## Questions people ask

Is Ravenpost cheaper than Hootsuite?

For 15 connected accounts, yes: $24/mo against $199/mo on Hootsuite's cheapest plan that covers that many. At other sizes the gap changes — the table above prices three of them.

Is there a free plan?

Ravenpost has one that doesn't expire: one connected account and ten posts a month, no card. Hootsuite offers a 14-day trial with daily posting limits instead.

How do I move from Hootsuite?

Reconnect your accounts through Ravenpost's OAuth flow — a few clicks each — and rebuild your posting schedule in Settings. There's no import tool: your existing scheduled posts stay where they are and publish from there, so run both until that queue drains.
