Taplio vs Typefully vs Hypefury: prices checked 20 October 2026
Typefully is the cheapest way in this comparison to post to both X and LinkedIn, and Taplio costs the most. The table lists every plan as each vendor's own pricing page showed it on 20 October 2026, with the billing basis: Taplio, Typefully and Hypefury.
| Tool and plan | Billed monthly | Billed yearly | Limits that matter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taplio Starter | $39 a month | $32 a month ($384 a year) | Scheduling, analytics, viral post library; no AI credits |
| Taplio Growth | $69 a month | $49 a month ($588 a year) | 250 AI credits and 500 comment credits a month |
| Taplio Pro | $199 a month | $149 a month ($1,788 a year) | Unlimited AI; auto-DMs, bulk DMs and automatic connection requests |
| Typefully Free | $0 | $0 | 10 posts a month, 1 social set, 1 user |
| Typefully Creator | Not offered | $99 a year (annual billing only) | 1,000 posts a month, 1 social set, 1 user; AI writing and X analytics |
| Typefully Business | $20 per social set a month | $18 per social set a month | 1,500 posts a month, up to 50 social sets, unlimited users |
| Hypefury Flexible | $6 per channel a month | $5 per channel a month | Pay for each channel you connect |
| Hypefury Full | $19 a month | $199 a year | All channels: Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok |
One page does not add up on its own. Taplio's yearly switch carries a 25% badge, but the yearly prices save different amounts per plan: 18% on Starter ($384 against 12 × $39 = $468), 29% on Growth ($588 against $828) and 25% on Pro ($1,788 against $2,388).
Old figures still circulate, so check the date on any comparison. Findstack's Typefully listing, which says its prices were last updated on 18 February 2024, still shows a Creator plan at $24 a month. Typefully's own page now sells Creator for $99 a year, which works out at $8.25 a month.
What does Taplio do on LinkedIn and X?
Taplio is a LinkedIn tool first, and it reaches X only through a second product. Its pricing page lists a library of more than 5 million viral posts, post scheduling, analytics and a monthly stats email on every plan. AI writing starts on Growth, with 250 AI credits a month, and Pro makes AI posts and comments unlimited. Taplio's help centre also explains how to post from a LinkedIn company page you administer.
Pro is the outreach plan. It is the only one with the lead database, auto-DMs, bulk DMs and automatic connection requests to people who engage with your posts. Taplio's help pages set the limits:
- Bulk DMs: up to 100 a day, with extra messages queued for the next day. People you are not connected to get a connection request first, then the DM once they accept (How to use Networking in Taplio).
- Auto-DMs on a post: only 1st-degree connections receive them, only the first 100 people who like or comment are eligible, and the feature stops 24 hours after the post is published (Taplio Post Boosts).
Taplio's pricing FAQ says it is safe to use because it behaves like a real LinkedIn user. LinkedIn's automated activity page says it doesn't allow third-party software or browser extensions that automate activity on its website. Weigh both before you switch on Pro's automation; our post on whether LinkedIn automation is safe covers the risk.
For X, Taplio's help centre says you connect Tweet Hunter, which it calls its tool for X, and you need an active subscription to both. Connecting them takes 25% off each, if you don't already have a discount. Posts sent to X this way are limited to 280 characters, even with X Premium. Tweet Hunter's pricing page showed its Discover plan at $29 a month on monthly billing, though the same page's title says plans start from $49 a month.
What does Typefully do on X and LinkedIn?
Typefully is a writing and scheduling app that publishes to several networks at once, with its deepest features on X. Its pricing table lists X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon and Substack on every plan, including Free. Accounts are grouped into social sets, which its help centre defines as a collection of social media accounts for a person or brand, so you write once and cross-post.
On LinkedIn, the pricing table lists first comments and PDF carousels on every plan, and Typefully's LinkedIn page says you can schedule to your profile or a LinkedIn company page you have access to. The gap is measurement. Its analytics help article, dated 11 August 2026, says analytics only support X accounts and that LinkedIn analytics are being worked on.
X is where Typefully goes further:
- Engagement tools on every plan: replies, scheduled retweets, automatic plugs, auto-DMs, a thread finisher and X Communities.
- X analytics on Creator and Business: detailed metrics, profile conversion rate, posting streaks and CSV download.
- Auto-DM rules: its auto-DM help article allows three campaigns at once, sends up to 500 DMs a day, triggers on a reply, retweet or follow, and stays active for four days after the post goes out. It also tells you to mention a DM in the first post so readers know auto-DMs are on.
Business is the team plan. It adds teams, roles and permissions, unlimited users and Slack channel notifications, at $20 per social set a month or $18 billed yearly.
Does Hypefury still support X?
No. Hypefury's own features and pricing page, checked 20 October 2026, says in its FAQ that Hypefury no longer supports X. The channels it lists are Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok. The page does not say when X support ended, so any comparison that still ranks Hypefury as an X scheduler is out of date.
Hypefury's FAQ says you can schedule LinkedIn posts and carousels, and its feature list includes LinkedIn carousels or long posts, cross-posting to every connected channel, an automatic first comment (Autoplugs) and an engagement builder that watches users and keywords. The page does not say whether Autoplugs or the engagement builder work on LinkedIn. Its AutoDMs are listed for Instagram only. Pricing is per channel: Flexible costs $6 a channel a month, or $5 billed yearly, and Full covers every channel for $19 a month or $199 a year. Both plans come with a 7-day free trial and no credit card.
The page is loose in places, so confirm the price at checkout:
- The headline describes a single plan, above two plan cards.
- The FAQ offers a 7-day trial on a Starter plan, a plan name that appears nowhere else on the page.
- With yearly billing selected, Flexible shows $5 a month but still says each extra channel costs 6 USD a month.
Taplio vs Typefully: which one fits your use case?
Pick by the networks you post on, then by whether you want automation. Each row uses the vendor's own page, checked 20 October 2026.
| Your situation | Best fit | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You post on LinkedIn only and want ideas and analytics | Taplio Starter ($39, or $32 billed yearly), or Growth for AI writing | Viral post library and LinkedIn analytics on every plan, plus company-page posting |
| You want DMs and connection requests sent to people who engage with your posts | Taplio Pro ($199, or $149 billed yearly) | The only plan in this comparison with LinkedIn auto-DMs, bulk DMs and automatic connection requests; read LinkedIn's rules first |
| You post on X and LinkedIn and want the lowest price | Typefully Creator ($99 a year) | Both networks, AI writing and X analytics for $8.25 a month |
| You want to try before paying anything | Typefully Free | 10 posts a month across all six networks |
| An agency or team handling several brands | Typefully Business, or Taplio with its team discount | Typefully: up to 50 social sets and unlimited users. Taplio: multiple accounts, shared analytics, writer and client roles, up to 30% off |
| You need Instagram or TikTok alongside LinkedIn, and not X | Hypefury Full ($19, or $199 a year) | Five channels for one price |
All three are schedulers. If you want posts and replies to turn into conversations, our Taplio alternatives page compares Taplio with tools that also send outreach. Siela's Social Media agents post on LinkedIn and X in your voice at the pace you set, like and comment for you, and let you choose per account whether every post waits for your approval.
What does a year cost for one founder on LinkedIn and X?
For one person posting to both networks, Typefully Creator costs $99 a year, and Taplio Starter with Tweet Hunter Discover costs $732 a year at list price, with Tweet Hunter billed monthly. The arithmetic below uses prices checked on 20 October 2026. Tweet Hunter is priced on monthly billing, at $29 a month. Its Yearly tab shows Discover at $23 a month, which would take $72 a year off each Taplio row (12 × $6).
| Setup | Cost a year | Arithmetic |
|---|---|---|
| Typefully Creator (X and LinkedIn) | $99 | Annual billing only |
| Typefully Business, one social set | $216 | 12 × $18, billed yearly |
| Taplio Starter + Tweet Hunter Discover | $732 | $384 + (12 × $29 = $348) |
| Taplio Growth + Tweet Hunter Discover | $936 | $588 + $348 |
| Taplio Pro + Tweet Hunter Discover | $2,136 | $1,788 + $348 |
| Hypefury Full (LinkedIn, no X) | $199 | Yearly price |
The Taplio rows are before the 25% discount Taplio's help centre mentions for connecting the two tools. The extra money buys different things. Taplio's spend goes on LinkedIn depth: the viral post library, LinkedIn analytics and, on Pro, outreach automation. Tweet Hunter describes itself as an all-in-one, AI-powered X tool. If LinkedIn analytics matter to you, Typefully's help article says its analytics cover X only for now.
How to choose a scheduler in one week
Run all candidates on the same real posts for a week. These steps are our advice.
List your networks and must-haves
Write down where you post, whether you need LinkedIn analytics, and whether you want DM automation. That list rules tools out fast: Hypefury if you need X, and Typefully if you need LinkedIn analytics today.
Start on the free tier or trial
Typefully Free allows 10 posts a month. Taplio's 7-day trial gives full Pro access, then switches to the plan you picked; its FAQ offers a refund within 30 days of payment if you forget to cancel. Hypefury's trial runs 7 days with no card.
Schedule a real week of posts
Load five posts per network, for example from our LinkedIn post templates. Check how each tool previews line breaks, carousels and first comments before anything publishes.
Check what you can measure
Open each tool's analytics after a few posts have gone out. Note which networks it reports on and whether you can export the data.
Decide on billing
Typefully Creator is annual only. Taplio's yearly prices save 18% to 29% depending on the plan. Hypefury Full costs $199 a year against $228 on monthly billing (12 × $19), a $29 saving. Pay yearly only for the tool you kept using all week.
