What Buffer does well

• On the free plan you can manage three social accounts, with ten scheduled posts per account and no time limit.
• With one or two accounts, the $6 per-account monthly fee is a good deal.
• The social inbox lets you follow comments and replies in one place. Posty has no inbox like that.
• The Chrome extension lets you save content while you browse. Posty has no browser extension.
• The public API and MCP server are available on every plan, including free. AI agents can drive Buffer's calendar with them directly.

When should you pick Buffer instead?

For one or two social accounts Buffer can be cheaper, and for three accounts there is the unlimited-time free plan. It is also the better pick if you need a social inbox or a Chrome extension. With more accounts, recurring posts or more involved automation, it is worth considering Posty too.

Why switch to Posty?

• Fixed plan price. Pro manages ten social accounts for 8 990 Ft a month. At Buffer, ten accounts cost about $60 a month, because you pay per account.
• More automation. Recurring posts and post sets mean you do not have to type every slot by hand. RSS auto-post turns new content into a post. Buffer's RSS feed is only for gathering ideas.
• Full agent control. Both products have an MCP server and a public API. Posty also ships a published CLI and a SKILL.md file, so your own AI agent can drive the calendar from the terminal. This is available from the Pro plan.
• Hungarian support. The interface and help are in Hungarian, and the invoice is in forints with Hungarian VAT. If you get stuck, you can write in Hungarian, and Norbi, the founder, replies.
