Later sells 'social sets' (one profile per network), not channels. Mapping to channel counts is our estimate. "est." = from third-party 2026 pricing guides, not checked on the vendor's own page. SocialPostScheduler is free for 3 months, then at cost: scheduling, approvals and the API stay included; AI use is charged at exactly what it costs us (rates).
