Predis.ai is unusual because it generates the creative, not just the caption. It produces finished videos and carousels and then publishes them to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, X and Google Business Profile. The Core plan is currently $24/mo, discounted from a $32 list price, and covers 10 accounts. Rise is $55/mo (list $79) for 20 accounts, and Enterprise+ is $212/mo (list $249) for 60.
People shop around for two reasons. There is no free plan, and both the channel count and the AI credits are capped per tier, so the cost of “make more” and the cost of “post to more places” move together even when only one of them is your constraint.

Work out which half you are paying for
Predis.ai is a generator and a publisher in one subscription. The alternatives split cleanly along that line:
| What you use it for | What to look at instead |
|---|---|
| Finished video and carousel generation | An AI creative tool, paired with any scheduler |
| AI captions plus scheduling | A general scheduler with AI built in |
| Publishing, with the AI mostly unused | A dedicated scheduler at a fraction of the price |
If you are honest that the AI output needed heavy editing anyway, the third row is usually the answer.
1. Ocoya, cheaper AI plus scheduling
Ocoya is the closest like-for-like: AI copywriting and template-based design alongside publishing, starting at $15/mo on the Bronze plan with a 7-day free trial. Its integrations page lists Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn and Pinterest as generally available, with Threads, TikTok, Google Business Profile, YouTube Shorts, Discord, Telegram and Slack marked beta.
- Best for: Small brands who want AI content at a lower entry price
- Limitation: Over half its channels are still labelled beta on its own site, and there is no free plan
Note: Pricing and features mentioned in this post were verified against Ocoya’s official site as of September 2026. Plans and pricing may have changed since publication.
2. Simplified, if you need the full creative suite
Simplified goes further than Predis.ai on the creative side: AI design, video, subtitles, brand kits and copywriting in one workspace, with a unified social inbox. The trade is price. The cheapest plan, Starter, is $59/mo, caps at 7 social accounts and 1 seat, and there is no free plan. Bulk scheduling does not appear until the $199/mo Business tier.
- Best for: Teams replacing a design tool and a scheduler at once
- Limitation: More than twice Predis.ai’s entry price, with fewer accounts on the entry tier
Note: Pricing and features mentioned in this post were verified against Simplified’s official site as of September 2026. Plans and pricing may have changed since publication.
3. Canva plus a scheduler, if the visuals are the point
If what you actually wanted was better-looking output, a general-purpose design tool will beat an AI generator most of the time, and Canva’s own Content Planner can schedule the results to Facebook Pages, Instagram Business, X, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Tumblr, one platform per design. It cannot schedule Threads, Bluesky, TikTok, Instagram Reels, Stories or carousels, so this only works as a pair with a publisher. Our Canva Content Planner alternatives post covers that pairing in detail.
- Best for: People who would rather design than prompt
- Limitation: Six networks, one platform per design, and no Reels, Stories or carousels
Note: Canva’s own site could not be reached when this post was written, so no Canva price is quoted here.
4. Flick, if it was Instagram and the captions
Flick started as hashtag research and grew into an Instagram-led scheduler with an AI assistant tuned to your brand voice. It covers Instagram (posts and Reels), Facebook, TikTok and LinkedIn, and the Solo plan is £11/mo billed yearly with a 7-day trial. Analytics covers Instagram only.
- Best for: Instagram creators who want hashtag research bundled in
- Limitation: Four networks, GBP pricing, no free plan
Note: Pricing and features mentioned in this post were verified against Flick’s official site as of September 2026. Plans and pricing may have changed since publication.
5. Plann, if you want a free tier to test on
Plann is Instagram-first with genuinely good mobile apps, and it handles the formats AI generators usually target: posts, Stories, carousels and Reels. It publishes to Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube Shorts and Threads. Paid plans start at $15/mo, or $12.50/mo billed annually, and there is a free forever plan with one brand, though it schedules Instagram only and allows 30 AI credits a month.
- Best for: Solo creators who plan and post from a phone
- Limitation: No X, Bluesky or Google Business Profile, and team tiers cap at 4 users
Note: Pricing and features mentioned in this post were verified against Plann’s official site as of September 2026. Plans and pricing may have changed since publication.
6. SocialBu, if the AI turned out to be optional
If the generated creative was never quite usable and you kept making things yourself, you are paying for a generator you do not use. SocialBu covers 12 networks including Reddit, Mastodon and Bluesky, with automation rules, at $29/mo or $22/mo billed annually and a 7-day trial. Its free plan is 10 lifetime posts, so treat it as a trial.
- Best for: People who want the publishing half with wider network coverage
- Limitation: Starter caps at 8 accounts, and analytics are thin
Note: Pricing and features mentioned in this post were verified against SocialBu’s official site as of September 2026. Plans and pricing may have changed since publication.
7. Postly, if the account cap was the constraint
Predis.ai’s Core plan gives you 10 accounts and meters AI credits alongside them. If you needed more accounts but not more generation, Postly’s Pro plan is $16/mo billed yearly for 5 channels, an effective $3.20 per channel per month, with unlimited team members and unlimited workspaces. It covers Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Google Business Profile, Pinterest, Telegram and WhatsApp.
- Best for: Small agencies adding channels one at a time
- Limitation: No free plan, API access is a $12/mo add-on, and the next tier is $299/mo
Note: Pricing and features mentioned in this post were verified against Postly’s official site as of September 2026. Plans and pricing may have changed since publication.
How the alternatives compare

| Simplified | $59/mo (Starter) | No | Design, video, copy | 12+ |
| Flick | £11/mo yearly | No | Captions, hashtags | 4 |
| Plann | $15/mo ($12.50 annual) | Yes, Instagram only | Captions | 7 |
| SocialBu | $29/mo ($22 annual) | Yes, 10 lifetime posts | Captions | 12 |
| Postly | $16/mo yearly | No | Add-on | 9 |
Blotato and FeedHive also compete here and are worth a look, but we did not verify their current pricing in this pass, so no figures are quoted for them.
Scheduling what the AI made
Whichever generator you settle on, something has to publish the result on a schedule. BulkPublish is that half without a creative suite attached: 15 platforms (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Bluesky, Threads, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Google Business Profile, Mastodon, Discord, Telegram, Tumblr and Snapchat), with a shared media library for the assets and a calendar for the dates. AI caption help is built in rather than sold as credits on top.
Channels: Free: 3 (1 per platform). Pro: 30 (2 per platform). Business: 75 (5 per platform). Posts: Free: 3/day. Pro: 30/day. Business: unlimited.
AI generations run to 50 a month on Free, 300 on Pro and 1000 on Business. You can judge the output before signing up for anything: the AI Instagram post generator allows 3 runs a day anonymously.
The short version
Predis.ai earns its price only if you actually ship the video and carousels it makes. If you edit everything heavily, you are paying a creative premium for a scheduler, and SocialBu or Postly will do the publishing for less. If you want the same idea cheaper, Ocoya starts at $15/mo. If you want the same idea bigger, Simplified starts at $59/mo. And if the real problem was that Instagram Reels and carousels are hard to schedule, that is a publishing problem, not a generation one.
