Later Pricing
Later costs $18.75 to $82.50 per month when billed yearly: Starter at $18.75/mo, Growth at $37.50/mo and Scale at $82.50/mo. Those are the yearly-billing rates — Later advertises them as 3 months free, around 25% off — so the month-to-month price is higher. Plans are sized in "social sets" (one profile of each supported network), with a 14-day free trial.

Later pricing: the small print
The caveats the price table hides: what the headline number does not cover, and what pushes the bill up.
- Every price above is the billed-yearly rate (Later frames it as 3 months free, about 25% off). The month-to-month rate is higher and we did not capture it, so do not budget from these numbers if you intend to pay monthly.
- A "social set" is one profile of each supported network. The supported networks are Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Threads, YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Snapchat.
- Posts are counted when they are scheduled, not when they publish. Rescheduling and drafting eat into the same quota.
- The post quota is per profile per month: 30 on Starter, 180 on Growth, unlimited only on Scale.
- Add-ons apply on Growth and Scale only: an extra social set is $11.25/mo, an extra user $3.75/mo, and 100 extra AI credits $3.75/mo.
- AI credits are metered: 5/month on Starter, 50 on Growth, 100 on Scale.
- Analytics history is capped by tier: 3 months on Starter, 1 year on Growth, 2 years on Scale.
- There is a 14-day free trial.
What the same thing costs on Upload-Post
One profile is one account on every one of the 22 supported platforms, and the API is included on every plan, Free included.
Later’s Starter plan is $18.75/month billed yearly (more if you pay monthly) and caps you at 30 scheduled posts per profile per month, with posts counted at scheduling time. Upload-Post Basic is $24/month, or $16/month on annual billing, with unlimited uploads and 5 profiles, and a profile covers one account on each of the 22 supported platforms — so no social-set maths and no per-profile post quota. Before that, the Free plan is $0 forever with 10 uploads a month, 2 profiles and full API access, no card (TikTok posting needs a paid plan). Where Later wins: visual planning, the link-in-bio tool, UGC collection, Meta Ads analytics and Snapchat, none of which an API-first tool replaces. Where the maths flips: the moment you are posting daily across profiles, Later pushes you to Growth or Scale for the post quota, while Upload-Post’s post volume is unlimited from $16/month.
| Upload-Post plan | Monthly | Annual (per mo) | Uploads | Profiles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | 10 uploads/mo | 2 |
| Basic | $24/mo | $16/mo | Unlimited | 5 |
| Professional | $50/mo | $33/mo | Unlimited | 25 |
| Advanced | $147/mo | $118/mo | Unlimited | 75 |
| Business | $438/mo | $350/mo | Unlimited | 225 |
The Free plan is free forever, no card, with API access included. TikTok posting needs a paid plan.

Later pricing FAQ
The questions people actually search for, answered with the numbers above.
How much does Later cost per month?
Billed yearly, Later is $18.75/month for Starter, $37.50/month for Growth and $82.50/month for Scale. Later presents those rates as 3 months free, roughly 25% off. The month-to-month price is higher; check the live pricing page for the exact monthly figure before you budget.
Is there a free Later plan?
We did not find a free forever tier on the pricing page — what Later offers is a 14-day free trial. If you need something permanently free, Upload-Post’s Free plan gives 10 uploads a month, 2 profiles and API access with no card and no expiry date.
What is a social set on Later?
A social set is one profile of each supported network: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Threads, YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Snapchat — 8 profiles. Starter includes 1 set, Growth 2 sets (16 profiles) and Scale 6 sets (48 profiles). Extra sets cost $11.25/month on Growth and Scale.
How many posts can you schedule on Later?
Starter allows 30 scheduled posts per profile per month, Growth 180 per profile per month, and Scale is unlimited. Important detail: posts count when you schedule them, not when they go live, so drafts and reschedules consume the same allowance.
What do Later add-ons cost?
On Growth and Scale, an extra social set is $11.25/month, an extra user is $3.75/month and 100 extra AI credits are $3.75/month. Starter does not get add-ons, so growing past 1 social set or 1 user means moving up a tier.
Is Later cheaper than Upload-Post?
Later Starter at $18.75/month billed yearly is below Upload-Post Basic at $24/month, but Basic drops to $16/month on annual billing and carries unlimited uploads and 5 profiles against Later’s 30 posts per profile and 1 social set. For scheduling volume, Upload-Post is the cheaper unit; for visual planning and link in bio, Later does things Upload-Post does not.
Test the full API before paying anything
Upload-Post's Free plan is a real plan, not a trial: 10 uploads a month, forever, with API access to 22 platforms and no credit card. Upgrade when you outgrow it.
