What is SocialPilot?
SocialPilot is a social media scheduling and publishing tool started in 2014 by Jimit Bagadiya and Tejas Mehta, and it still runs its main operations from Ahmedabad. In India it fits digital marketing agencies, freelancers who handle several brand pages, and in-house teams at D2C or real estate firms that post daily to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and Google Business Profile. It connects ten networks, including Threads, Bluesky and TikTok. TikTok is banned in India, so that one won't matter here.
Where it does well is volume and client work. You can bulk-schedule up to 500 posts from a CSV, set queue times once and copy them across accounts, and send drafts to clients for approval without giving them a full login. From Premium upward you also get white label PDF reports and client management, and those are usually the reasons an agency switches from Buffer or Meta Business Suite.
The gaps are real, though. Essentials, the cheapest plan, has no social inbox, no bulk scheduling and no team seats, so it's really a solo scheduler. Analytics history is capped at 3 months on Standard and 12 months on Premium. The iOS app has a weak 3.0 rating, and the few written reviews say it lacks the desktop calendar view. Support is 24x5 through a knowledge base and tickets, which means weekend issues have to wait.
Pricing is published only in USD, EUR, GBP and AUD; we found no rupee pricing. Essentials costs $20 a month (or $17 a month billed yearly) for 5 accounts and 1 user. Standard is $40 for 10 accounts and 3 users, Premium is $100 for 20 accounts and 6 users, and Ultimate is $200 for 40 accounts and unlimited users. Extra accounts are $4 each. Every paid plan comes with a 14-day trial that doesn't ask for a card. Expect your card to be charged in dollars, with bank forex markup on top. Our advice: an agency running 10 or more client pages should start on Premium, because client approvals and branded reports aren't available below it.
What works well
- +Bulk scheduling of up to 500 posts per CSV upload, from the Standard plan upward
- +Client approval workflows and client seats are unlimited on Premium and Ultimate
- +White label PDF reports carry the agency's own logo and colours from Premium
- +14-day free trial on every paid plan with no credit card required
- +Supports ten networks including Google Business Profile, Threads, Bluesky and YouTube
- +Extra social accounts cost only $4 a month each on any paid plan
- +Yearly billing cuts the monthly price by 15 percent across all plans
What to watch out for
- −Pricing is only published in USD and other foreign currencies, not INR
- −Essentials plan lacks the social inbox, bulk scheduling and any team seats
- −Analytics history is limited to 3 months on the Standard plan
- −SSO and API access are reserved for the custom-priced Enterprise plan
- −iOS app holds only a 3.0 rating from 17 ratings on the App Store
- −Standard support runs 24x5, so weekend problems wait until Monday
Best suited for: Indian digital marketing agencies managing 10 to 40 client social profiles · Freelance social media managers who need client approvals and branded reports · Real estate and D2C brands posting daily across Instagram, Facebook and Google Business Profile · Teams moving off Meta Business Suite that also need LinkedIn and YouTube scheduling

How much does SocialPilot cost in India?+
SocialPilot doesn't publish rupee prices. Its Essentials plan costs $20 a month, or $17 a month billed yearly, for 5 social accounts and 1 user. Standard is $40, Premium is $100 and Ultimate is $200 a month, with Enterprise priced on quote. Indian buyers are charged in USD, so the rupee amount depends on the exchange rate and your card's forex markup.
Does SocialPilot charge GST or give GST invoices?+
SocialPilot's pricing page lists prices only in USD, EUR, GBP and AUD, and we couldn't find any statement about GST-compliant invoices for Indian businesses. If you need input tax credit, ask SocialPilot support during the trial whether invoices can show your GSTIN. Otherwise, treat the subscription as an imported service and ask your accountant how to handle it.
Is there a free plan or free trial for SocialPilot?+
SocialPilot has no permanent free plan. Each paid plan, from Essentials to Ultimate, comes with a 14-day free trial that doesn't need a credit card. That's enough time to connect your Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn pages, try bulk CSV scheduling on Standard, and send a client approval request before you decide which tier to buy.
Which SocialPilot plan should an agency choose?+
Most agencies should pick SocialPilot Premium at $100 a month. It's the first plan with client management, client approval workflows, white label reports, custom fields and 12 months of analytics history, and it covers 20 social accounts and 6 users. Standard at $40 is fine for internal teams, but it can't give clients their own approval seats.
SocialPilot vs Buffer: which is better for Indian agencies?+
SocialPilot usually works out better for agencies because client approvals, bulk scheduling of 500 posts and white label PDF reports come built in at fixed plan prices, while Buffer's pricing scales per channel. Buffer has the cleaner interface and a free plan for 3 channels. For a solo creator with a few accounts, Buffer's free tier may be enough. For client work, SocialPilot Premium is the stronger fit.
Does SocialPilot have a mobile app?+
Yes. SocialPilot has companion apps on Android (Google Play) and iOS, and you need a paid account to use them. You can draft, schedule and publish posts, reply to comments and messages, and approve content from your phone. The iOS app has a 3.0 rating from 17 ratings, and reviewers mention a missing calendar view and an interface that feels built for iPad.
Which social networks does SocialPilot support?+
SocialPilot connects to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Pinterest, Threads, Bluesky, Google Business Profile and TikTok. TikTok is banned in India, so Indian users effectively get nine networks. Google Business Profile support helps local businesses such as clinics, restaurants and real estate offices, which can schedule offers and updates alongside their Instagram and Facebook posts.
Is SocialPilot secure for client accounts?+
SocialPilot offers two-factor authentication on every plan and lets you enforce 2FA for the whole team on Ultimate. Single sign-on comes only with the custom Enterprise plan. Role-based permissions mean clients and junior staff see only the accounts and actions you allow. We didn't find SOC 2 or GDPR claims on the features page, so ask sales if your client contracts need them.
How long does it take to set up SocialPilot?+
A small team can usually get SocialPilot running in an afternoon: connect accounts, set queue times, and upload a CSV of scheduled posts. Agencies moving many clients from another tool can get migration and onboarding help, but only on Ultimate ($200 a month) or Enterprise, which also include a dedicated account manager. On lower plans you set things up yourself using the knowledge base.
What support does SocialPilot offer to Indian customers?+
Every SocialPilot plan includes 24x5 support plus a self-service knowledge base, and Ultimate and Enterprise customers get a dedicated account manager. The company runs its operations from Ahmedabad, but it doesn't publish India-specific phone support or hours. Expect ticket- and email-based help on weekdays, and plan any big campaign launches around that.

SocialPilot's login is at https://auth.socialpilot.co/login, linked from its official website.
