What Later does

Plans and auto-publishes posts across social networks, tracks analytics, and offers influencer campaign tools and Link in Bio pages.

Later is a vendor with two connected product lines: social media management and influencer marketing. On the social side, it lets you plan content on a visual calendar, schedule posts to networks such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Threads, Pinterest and LinkedIn, and publish them automatically. Extras include AI tools for ideas and captions, a Link in Bio page for Instagram or TikTok, a media library, and a Chrome extension for saving photos from the web. There are also iOS and Android mobile apps.

Three paid plans exist. Starter costs $18.75 per month billed yearly and covers one user with one social set. Growth costs $37.50 per month billed yearly and adds a second user, approval workflows, a social inbox and longer analytics history. Scale costs $82.50 per month billed yearly and adds custom analytics, competitive benchmarking, brand monitoring and priority support. Prices are in USD, taxes are extra, and each plan starts with a 14-day free trial. The pricing page states that yearly billing saves 25% compared with monthly billing.

Post volume is counted per profile each month: 30 on Starter, 180 on Growth, and unlimited on Scale. AI credits are 5, 50 and 100 per month respectively.

For brands that want creator partnerships, Later also offers influencer marketing software and full-service campaign programs, plus a route for creators to earn income. Pricing for those services is not published on the official site.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Three clearly priced plans with a 14-day free trial
  • Auto-publishing to several networks from a visual calendar
  • Growth adds approvals and a social inbox for teams
  • Scale adds custom analytics and competitor benchmarking for up to 20 competitors
  • Link in Bio page and AI caption and idea tools are included on every plan

Cons

  • No free plan, only a 14-day trial
  • Pricing page shows only yearly-billed per-month prices, no monthly-billing figure
  • Starter is limited to 1 user and cannot add extra users, social sets or AI credits
  • Starter allows only 30 scheduled posts per profile
  • Influencer marketing and full-service program pricing is not published on the official site

Our take

Later suits social media managers, small brands and agencies who want scheduling, analytics and team approvals in one tool, with a clear three-tier price list. Starter fits one person with one set of profiles, while Growth is the first tier with approvals and a social inbox. Trade-offs: there is no free plan, only a 14-day trial, and the pricing page lists only yearly-billed per-month figures. Starter cannot be extended with extra users or credits, so growing teams must move up a tier. Influencer marketing pricing is not published on the official site, so brands interested in that side must ask the vendor.
