Overview & Highlights

  • One-time price from $49 for a scheduler covering 12 social platforms
  • Bulk CSV import and evergreen queues for scheduling months ahead

SocialBu is a social media management tool for scheduling, publishing, and tracking posts across 12 platforms from one dashboard: Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads, Google Business Profile, YouTube, Reddit, TikTok, and Pinterest. It is built by a bootstrapped team in Lahore, Pakistan, and has been around since 2019.

Beyond the drag-and-drop calendar it offers bulk post import by CSV, custom queues that recycle evergreen content, separate workspaces and roles for each brand or client, Google Drive integration, an AI writer, and performance analytics. Higher tiers add a social inbox, automation workflows, SocialBu Listen for keyword monitoring, content curation, and an MCP server that lets ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and other assistants draft, schedule, and publish posts.

The AppSumo deal is a one-time purchase with 4 tiers. Tier 1 ($49) gives 10 social accounts, 600 posts and 500 AI writer credits per month, 8 queues, and 1 team, but no inbox, automations, Listen, or MCP server. Tier 2 ($129) gives 25 accounts, 1,500 posts, 1,200 AI credits, 3 teams, and 30 automations, and adds the inbox, MCP server, Listen, and curation. Tier 3 ($279) raises that to 75 accounts, 5,000 posts, 2,400 AI credits, 10 teams, and 150 automations. Tier 4 ($499), launched for AppSumo Plus members, gives 150 accounts, 12,000 posts, and 5,800 AI credits. Each post to one account counts as one post, and X posts with links are capped at 10 to 50 per month depending on tier.

Track post and account performance across networks, compare platforms, and filter by content type, account, or time period.

Inbox, automations, and Listen

Reply to comments and messages from one inbox, run automation workflows such as auto-replies, and monitor keywords with SocialBu Listen (Tier 2 and up).

MCP server and ChatGPT app

Connect ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf through https://socialbu.com/mcp so an assistant can draft, schedule, approve, and analyze posts.

Pros, Cons & Verdict

Our honest editorial opinion to help you decide before you buy.

The Good (Pros)

  • Quick setup and a clean interface that beginners pick up fast
  • MCP server lets Claude and other agents draft and schedule posts
  • Bulk CSV import makes queuing months of content fast
  • Per-platform options, including LinkedIn first comments and carousels
  • Inbox, automations, listening, and API included from Tier 2
  • Publishes to X, including posts with links

Considerations (Cons)

  • Some reviewers say social accounts disconnect often and need reconnecting
  • Tier 4 buyers reported delays getting the advertised 150 accounts
  • Workspace and team management confused at least one reviewer
  • Slow load times reported when connecting accounts and contacting support
  • X posts with links are capped at 10 to 50 per month

LTD Explorer Verdict: SocialBu

Worth it

“SocialBu is worth it for creators, small businesses, and agencies who schedule across many networks and want AI assistants to handle drafting through its MCP server, and Tier 2 is the sensible start because Tier 1 lacks the inbox, automations, and MCP. Skip it if you need heavy X link posting or zero tolerance for account reconnects, and test connection stability within the 60-day refund window before committing to a big tier.”

Frequently Asked Questions (6)

Essential answers regarding deal terms, stacking, licensing, and refunds.

Can I get a refund?
Yes. AppSumo offers a refund within 60 days of purchase.
Is there an activation deadline?
Yes. You must activate your license within 60 days of purchase.
Do the tiers map to SocialBu's regular plans?
No. AppSumo tiers are separate lifetime plans with their own limits and do not map to Starter, Growth, or Agency. You get all future updates to the custom AppSumo plan, can upgrade between the 4 tiers while the deal is live, and can downgrade within 60 days of purchase.
How are posts and social accounts counted?
Publishing to one social account counts as one post, so the same content sent to five accounts counts as five. Drafts, replies, and direct messages do not count. Each connected profile, Page, or channel is one social account.
Are there limits on X posts with links?
Yes. X posts with links are capped per month across all connected X accounts: 10 on Tier 1, 20 on Tier 2, 30 on Tier 3, and 50 on Tier 4. X posts without links only count toward the normal monthly post allowance.
Can I redeem the deal on an existing SocialBu account?
Yes. If you have a paid subscription, cancel it first, then redeem the AppSumo license with your existing SocialBu login, ideally using the same email as your AppSumo purchase.
