SocialBee's Real Price Isn't on the Pricing Page
Base plan: $49. Inbox: +$19. Analytics: +$19.
Actual cost: $87/month. For features that should be standard. You're paying for three subscriptions to run one tool.
"Inbox and analytics are core features."
Not premium add-ons. Not optional extras. Core features. You shouldn't need three subscriptions to run your social media.
"The AI is basic."
Generic captions that need editing. No voice learning. No personalization. AI that feels like it was built in 2022.
You love the category system. We get it.
Beacon has categories too. Plus inbox, analytics, and AI that actually works — all for $79. Not $87.
Meet Beacon: One Price. Everything Included.
Content Categories (Yes, Really)
Organize posts by topic, type, or campaign. Category schedules. Evergreen recycling. Balanced distribution.
The workflow you built in SocialBee translates directly to Beacon.
Inbox & Analytics (Included)
Unified inbox for all platforms. Advanced analytics and reporting. Exportable data. No $38/mo add-on tax.
Core features shouldn't cost extra.
