visual Instagram planning vs hosted multi-platform automation

PostFast is for creators and agencies who want eleven networks, inbox, and agent connectors in one hosted app. Later lets you plan Instagram posts on a visual calendar and grid. You also get Link in Bio.

Later

  • > Caption Writer and Ideas create copy in the post builder. You spend monthly AI credits.
  • > Annual Starter starts at $18.75 per month for one social set, Link in Bio, and a 14-day trial.
  • > Access Groups split media libraries and calendars when you manage extra brands.
  • > You get an Instagram grid planner, Link in Bio, UGC collection, and Scale competitive benchmarking in one dashboard.
  • > Growth and Scale include internal and external approvals. You can share a review link without a Later login.

PostFast

  • Agent connectors run through PostFast accounts — no self-hosted skills, workspace MCP, or AGPL source to audit
  • Scheduled post caps on Starter through Growth (150–3,000) before unlimited Pro tiers
  • Hosted client workspaces — not isolated agent workspaces with separate tokens, MCP endpoints, and self-host control
  • Hosted-only product — no open-source path to run scheduling on your own infrastructure
  • Starter tier limits you to 150 scheduled posts and limited analytics
