# A Later alternative for many accounts

> One price for any 10 accounts, however many are on one network.

## Is PostMesh a good Later alternative?

PostMesh costs less than Later when you run several accounts on one network: Creator is $29 a month for any 10 accounts, where Later prices by social set, one profile per network, so 10 Instagram accounts come to $170 a month. Spread across networks, Later's Growth plan covers 10 accounts for $50. Later is built around Instagram and Pinterest, with Stories, Pinterest publishing and an inbox, which PostMesh doesn't offer.

## What it costs each month

| Accounts | PostMesh | Later |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 3 accounts, one per network | $29/mo (Creator) | $25/mo (Starter: 1 social set, 30 posts per profile a month) |
| 10 accounts | $29/mo (Creator) | $50/mo (Growth: 2 social sets, up to 2 accounts per network) |
| 10 Instagram accounts | $29/mo (Creator) | $170/mo (Scale: 6 social sets plus 4 at $15) |

Monthly billing for both. A Later social set holds one profile on each of Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn, YouTube, Threads and Snapchat. Billed yearly, Later is $18.75, $37.50 and $82.50 a month with extra sets at $11.25, and PostMesh is $22, $37 and $75. Prices in USD before tax.

## Questions

### Is PostMesh cheaper than Later?

It depends on how your accounts are spread. Later prices by social set, one profile per network. One account on a few networks fits Later's Starter at $25 a month. Ten accounts with no more than 2 per network fit Growth at $50. Ten Instagram accounts need 10 sets, $170 a month. PostMesh Creator is $29 a month for any 10 accounts and Growth is $49 for 50.

### Does PostMesh post to Pinterest?

No. PostMesh posts to Instagram, Facebook Pages, Threads, Reddit, X, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Bluesky, Mastodon, Telegram and Discord. If Pinterest is a big part of your plan, Later publishes to it.

### Can PostMesh post Instagram Stories or carousels?

Carousels, yes: up to 20 photos and videos in one Instagram post. Stories, not yet. Later supports both.

### Can I move my scheduled posts from Later?

Yes. Export them, then import a CSV with the columns content, platforms and scheduled_at, up to 50 rows per file. They arrive as drafts you check and schedule. You reconnect each account through its network's sign-in.

### Does PostMesh have an inbox like Later?

No. PostMesh shows the likes and comments on posts you sent from it, where the network shares them, but you reply in each network's own app.

### Is there a free plan?

No. Every PostMesh plan starts with a 7-day free trial, and you can cancel before it ends. Later has a 14-day trial.
