Is there a social media scheduler without a monthly fee?

The short answer

Yes. Spica Post Starter is a one-time payment of $99 for posting to up to 3 connected accounts, 1,000 posts a month, through your own AI assistant. A monthly plan is for unlimited posts, more accounts, posting to X, and results and research tools.

What the one-time plan covers

Connecting your accounts, publishing and scheduling by asking your assistant or by hand, a calendar, tracking each post, and an account page for connections, usage and billing.

What the limits are

Starter covers 3 connected accounts, 1,000 posts a month, 1 GB of video uploads a month and scheduling up to 30 days ahead. A post sent to several accounts counts once. Unlimited posts and posting to X are part of Studio and Pro, not Starter. Uploaded media is deleted 7 days after its post is published.

When a monthly plan makes sense

If you want to see which posts worked, the best times to post, local keyword research, or reports for several locations, those are in Studio and Pro.

Who the one-time plan suits

A single business with a handful of accounts that posts a few times a week and does not need statistics. If you want results, more accounts or posting to X, a monthly plan fits better.

What to check in any pay-once offer

  1. Which networks are included, and which are not.
  2. The limits: accounts, posts a month, how far ahead you can schedule.
  3. Whether your own AI assistant is needed, and what that costs you.
  4. What you keep if the company changes its plans.
