Why people look past Ocoya

Ocoya does a lot for its price. It writes the caption, designs the visual and picks the hashtags in one pass, publishes to 28 integrations and can be driven from Claude or ChatGPT over MCP. The reasons to look elsewhere are narrower. The 7-day trial needs a card and renews automatically until you cancel in Settings, then Billing. AI output is metered in credits: 300 a month on Starter, 1,500 on Team and 5,000 on Agency. And everything it does is organic. There is no paid campaign launch and no landing page beyond a link-in-bio page.

Ocoya pricing and free plan

As of October 2026 Ocoya has no free plan. Starter is $29 a month billed monthly for one user, five social profiles and 300 credits; Team is $79 for five users, 20 profiles and 1,500 credits; Agency is $199 for 20 users, 100 profiles and 5,000 credits. VAT is added where it applies, and the yearly toggle advertises two months free.

Vibiz has no free plan either. Pro is $79 a month, or $63 a month billed yearly, Ultra is $229 a month, and ads you launch carry a service fee on ad budget, shown before launch. The side-by-side is on Vibiz vs Ocoya.

How to choose

Sort the list by the problem you are solving.

You only need scheduling. Buffer is the cheapest serious option, with a free plan for three channels and $5 a month per channel after that. You write the posts, it queues them. Hootsuite sits at the other end: listening, competitor monitoring and inbox automation for a team, priced per user from $99 a month billed yearly.

You want posts written for you, cheaper or simpler. SocialBee keeps unlimited AI generation on every plan and organises posts into categories it can recycle, which suits a business with evergreen content. Marky leans on designer templates and Google Business posting, and its yearly plans are half the monthly price. Predis.ai gives the biggest allowance for the money, about 325 images on Core, but auto-posting only starts on Rise.

You need the posts to sell. If you also pay for Meta or Google ads and send people to a page, a scheduler leaves gaps. Vibiz schedules the posts, launches the campaigns on Meta and Google, builds the landing page with checkout and handles comments in one inbox. On TikTok, LinkedIn and X it publishes organic posts only. See the AI ad generator for how the creative side works.

What to check before you switch

The trial terms. Ocoya and Predis.ai take a card up front. SocialBee and Hootsuite do not, and Hootsuite says it will not charge automatically when the trial ends.

Your network list. Ocoya's 28 integrations are hard to match. If you rely on Bluesky, Discord or WordPress publishing, confirm the replacement covers them before you move your calendar.

What a month costs at your volume. Count channels, seats and posts. Buffer charges per channel, Hootsuite per user, Ocoya and Predis.ai per credit, and Vibiz per plan.

Frequently asked questions
