PostGate vs bundle.social

A bundle.social alternative without a monthly post ceiling

bundle.social is a real social media API with a typed SDK, an MCP server, and a genuinely free tier for API access. It also prices every plan — including paid ones — around a hard monthly post quota. PostGate takes a different shape: unlimited posting on every paid plan, SDKs generated in six languages instead of one, and delivery evidence tracked per platform target instead of per aggregate post. Below is a factual, sourced comparison so you can judge which fits your stack.

How PostGate and bundle.social compare

Every bundle.social figure below is sourced from bundle.social's own pricing page and API reference as of this writing and may change — verify current details on their site before deciding. PostGate figures come from our own docs and pricing page, linked throughout.

DimensionPostGatebundle.social
Starting price & free tierFree sandbox plan (10 posts/mo, no card required). Paid plans start at $4.00/mo. See /pricing.Free plan at $0/mo (20 posts/mo, 3 connected accounts). Paid plans start at $100/mo (Pro, 10,000 posts/mo), then $400/mo (Business, 100,000 posts/mo), with custom Enterprise pricing above that.
Post volume on paid plansNo monthly post cap on any paid plan — Solo, Launch, and Build all publish without a posts-per-month ceiling. Only the free sandbox plan is capped, at 10 posts/mo. See /pricing.Every tier ships with a hard monthly post quota: 10,000 posts/mo on Pro ($100/mo) and 100,000 posts/mo on Business ($400/mo). Connected accounts are unlimited on paid plans, but the post count itself is not.
Per-platform posting costsThe plan price covers publishing to every connected platform — no separate per-post surcharge for any provider.X (Twitter) posts draw down a separate balance on top of the plan price — $0.015 per post, or $0.20 for a post containing a link.
SDK language coverageGenerated clients for six languages/runtimes — Node.js/TypeScript, Python, Go, Ruby, PHP, and .NET — from one OpenAPI contract. See /docs/sdks-mcp.An official, typed TypeScript SDK. Other languages are documented as integrating directly against the OpenAPI spec rather than through an official generated client.
MCP / AI-agent supportA hosted MCP server that creates a draft by default — a tool call must explicitly pass confirm: true to publish. See /docs/sdks-mcp.An official MCP server exposing post creation, scheduling, account listing, and analytics tools for MCP clients such as Claude and Cursor.
Delivery evidenceEach post carries a per-target status array — pending, publishing, retry state, error, platform ID, permalink — plus sanitized logs correlated by request and trace ID. See /docs/delivery.Documents webhook delivery and per-platform parameters in their API reference for tracking post outcomes.

"No account limits" and post caps are two different promises

What developers have actually said about it

bundle.social markets itself around unlimited connected accounts — no per-account pricing, no hard caps on how many profiles you connect. That claim is accurate. But every plan, including paid ones, still caps the number of posts you can send per month. On bundle.social's own Show HN launch thread, one commenter pushed back on that framing directly, asking whether "no account limits but post limits" is really a different constraint from the per-account pricing bundle.social was positioning against, or just the same ceiling moved to a different metric. It is a fair question: if your workload is post-volume-heavy rather than account-heavy — high-frequency automation, agencies posting on behalf of many clients, or AI agents generating content continuously — a monthly post quota can bind before an account limit ever would. PostGate's paid plans do not put a ceiling on posts at all; you scale by connected profiles instead. See /pricing for exact plan limits.

Why teams switch

Why teams switch to PostGate

No monthly post ceiling

One endpoint handles drafts, scheduled posts, queued posts, and immediate publishing, with a stable Idempotency-Key making retries safe for 72 hours — and no posts-per-month cap on any paid plan. Read the posts guide.

Cron and slot-based queues

Define recurring schedules with cron expressions or human-readable daily slots, pause them without deleting configuration, and let queued posts take the next open slot automatically. Read the schedules guide.

Delivery evidence per target, not per post

A partial result is a legitimate terminal state — some targets published, some didn't — with per-target status, retry count, error detail, and permalink so you know exactly what happened on every platform. Read the delivery guide.

SDKs in six languages, plus MCP

Build from generated clients in Node.js/TypeScript, Python, Go, Ruby, PHP, and .NET, or connect an AI agent to the hosted MCP server with draft-first publish safety. Read the SDKs & MCP guide.
