The short answer
An X scheduler costs from $6 to $99 a month for one account. Buffer is cheapest for one X account at $6 a month. For 3 accounts, OpenTweet ($29) and Postiz ($29) cost least. For 10 accounts, Blotato ($29) and Postiz ($39) cost less than OpenTweet ($49), Typefully ($200) or Tweet Hunter ($199).
Headline prices hide two things. First, the unit: some tools charge per channel or per social set, others charge a flat plan, so the gap grows with every account you add. Second, links: X charges $0.20 for every post with a URL sent through its API, and tools either include it, pass it on, or strip the link. We make OpenTweet, so every competitor figure below links to its own pricing page.

"Not found" means the pricing page did not say, not that the feature does not exist. Buffer shows $5 a month billed yearly ($60 a year, "save 2 months"), which puts monthly billing at $6. Typefully's pricing table loads in the browser only, so its figures are from our October 17 check. OpenTweet Pro covers 1 X account and 20 posts a day, Advanced 3 accounts and 100 posts, Agency 10 accounts and 300 posts.
Per account or per plan decides the bill
Per-channel tools look cheapest for one account and climb with every account after it: Typefully Business is $20 for one X account and $200 for ten. Flat plans look pricier for one account and stay put. Count the accounts you will have in six months, not today.The hidden cost: links on X
X charges $0.20 for each API post that contains a URL and $0.015 for one without, per X's API pricing. Tools handle that fee in one of four ways.
| How the link fee is handled | Tools | What you pay |
|---|---|---|
| Included in the plan | OpenTweet | 1 link post a day on Pro, 10 on Advanced, 20 on Agency, then link credits |
| Link removed unless you buy an add-on | Post Bridge, Upload-Post | Post Bridge $10 a month for 40; Upload-Post $19 a month for 50 |
| Passed on to you per post | Zernio, the X API itself | $0.20 a link post, $0.015 a plain post |
| Not stated on the pricing page | Buffer, Typefully, Tweet Hunter, SuperX, Postiz, Blotato, Hootsuite | Ask before you rely on links: 10 link posts a day is about $60 a month in X fees |
If you share blog posts, product pages or affiliate links every day, this matters more than the plan price.
Which one to pick
| If you need | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| One X account, a few posts a week | Buffer Free or Essentials | $0 for 10 queued posts, $6 a month for unlimited |
| One X account, paid once a year | Typefully Creator | $99 a year, if you are sure you will not add a second account |
| 3 X accounts, posts with links | OpenTweet Advanced ($29) | 10 link posts a day included across the 3 accounts |
| 10 to 20 accounts across many networks | Blotato or Postiz | $29 to $39 flat; check how each handles X links |
| An AI agent or script that posts | OpenTweet, Postiz or SuperX Pro | All three ship an API and an MCP server; OpenTweet has 43 tools |
| A team with approvals and an inbox | Hootsuite or Agorapulse | Built for teams, priced per user, and X costs extra on Agorapulse |
When OpenTweet is the wrong choice
- You run one X account and post a few times a week. Buffer at $6 or its free plan costs less.
- You need Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or Facebook too. OpenTweet covers X, Bluesky and LinkedIn only.
- You run 10 to 20 accounts and rarely post links. Blotato at $29 is cheaper than Agency at $49.
- You need a shared inbox and approval chains for a large team. Hootsuite and Agorapulse are built for that.
Frequently asked questions

For one X account, Buffer: its free plan holds 10 queued posts, and Essentials is $6 a month per channel ($5 billed yearly). For 3 accounts, OpenTweet Advanced and Postiz Standard both cost $29. For 10 accounts, Blotato Starter at $29 is cheapest. Prices read November 4, 2026.
How much does Typefully cost?
Typefully has a free plan with 10 posts a month and no AI, Creator at $99 a year (billed yearly only, one social set), and Business at $20 a month per social set ($18 billed yearly). Three X accounts on Business cost $60 a month. Checked October 17, 2026; Typefully replaced its $10 Pro plan with Creator in autumn 2026.
How much does Buffer cost for X?
Buffer charges per channel, and each X account is one channel. Free covers 3 channels with 10 scheduled posts each. Essentials is $6 a month per channel or $60 a year, and Team is $12 a month or $120 a year. Ten X accounts on Essentials cost $60 a month.
Does Hypefury still support X?
Not as far as its pricing page shows. On November 4, 2026 Hypefury listed Instagram, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, TikTok and Bluesky as its platforms, and X was not among them. Check with Hypefury if you are an existing X customer.
Why do some schedulers charge extra for links on X?
Since X moved its API to pay-per-use, a post that contains a URL costs $0.20 and a post without one $0.015. A scheduler that posts 10 links a day for you pays X about $60 a month. Some tools include a number of link posts, some remove links unless you pay for an add-on, and some pass the fee on.
Is there a free X scheduler?
Yes, with limits. Buffer Free covers 3 channels with 10 queued posts each and 1 thread. Typefully Free allows 10 posts a month. Post Bridge gives free users 5 posts a month. Postiz is free if you host it yourself, but then you need your own X developer app and pay X's API fees directly.
Can I schedule posts on X without a third-party tool?
In X Pro (the old TweetDeck), which needs Premium+ at $40 a month, and in the X app on iPhone, where X began rolling out scheduling in September 2026. Neither has a queue, bulk upload, RSS or an API.
