Up to 3 accounts: free. 5 accounts: the Creator plan at $9 (which includes 10 accounts), with unlimited posts and the API. ### Is X supported on Shager's free plan? Yes, X is an account like any other. Posts with a link on X come from a monthly allowance per plan; Free has none, so on Free you post to X without links. ### Does my team have to pay? No. Unlimited users on every plan. ### Can I connect an AI agent on the free plan? Yes. The MCP server and REST API are available from the free plan, with human approval before publishing. ### Can I try both side by side? Yes. Each tool's permission is separate, and the same accounts can connect to both. ## More comparisons - [Shager vs Metricool](https://shager.ai/en/compare/metricool) - [Shager vs Buffer](https://shager.ai/en/compare/buffer) - [Shager vs Hootsuite](https://shager.ai/en/compare/hootsuite) - [Shager vs Later](https://shager.ai/en/compare/later) ## Who it is for - [For creators](https://shager.ai/en/for/creators) - [For agencies](https://shager.ai/en/for/agencies) - [For small businesses](https://shager.ai/en/for/small-business) ## Product - [Pricing](https://shager.ai/en/pricing) - [For AI agents](https://shager.ai/en/agents) - [Supported networks](https://shager.ai/en/networks) - [Choosing a distribution platform](https://shager.ai/en/blog/choosing-a-distribution-platform-for-agents) ## Try it on your own accounts, free. 3 accounts free forever, no card required.
