MeetEdgar made evergreen content recycling famous — but $29.99/month buys just 5 social accounts, with no Mastodon and YouTube Shorts only. SocialKit covers all 11 platforms with 15 accounts on one flat EUR plan.

Kurz gesagt — das schnelle Fazit
Der Fairness halber: MeetEdgar’s evergreen recycling is genuinely best-in-class as a concept: build a categorized library once and Edgar keeps re-sharing it when new content runs low. Its 30-day trial is also longer than SocialKit’s 7 days, and both plans include a generous 20 team members.

Die Grundlagen
MeetEdgar is a social media scheduling tool founded in 2014 by Laura Roeder, best known for its octopus mascot and its signature feature: evergreen content recycling, where Edgar automatically re-shares posts from a categorized library when new content runs low. It targets solopreneurs, freelancers, and small teams, and has been a SureSwift Capital portfolio product since the acquisition was announced in January 2022. MeetEdgar supports 10 of SocialKit’s 11 platforms (no Mastodon, and YouTube is Shorts-only) and sells two USD plans: Eddie at $29.99/month for 5 social accounts and Edgar at $49.99/month for 25 accounts, with a 30-day free trial (as of June 2026).
MeetEdgar’s entry plan, Eddie, lists at $29.99/month — or $299/year, about $24.91/month — and includes just 5 social accounts, with extra accounts billed at $4.99/month each on monthly billing (as of June 2026). One brand posting to Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and X already uses all five slots. SocialKit Solo costs €29/month (€17.40/month billed annually) and includes 15 social accounts across all 11 platforms.
See MeetEdgar’s pricing pageMeetEdgar covers 10 networks, but Mastodon is not among them — their own Buffer comparison page tells readers to consider Buffer “if you need additional platforms like Mastodon.” YouTube support is limited to Shorts, so long-form videos are out. SocialKit publishes to all 11 platforms, including Mastodon and YouTube with both long-form and Shorts.
MeetEdgar’s own Buffer comparisonEvergreen recycling is the whole pitch — yet Eddie limits you to 10 weekly automations and 4 content categories, and Inky AI to 15 credits per month that expire every 30 days (as of June 2026). To unlock unlimited categories and 1,000 weekly automations you need the $49.99/month Edgar plan. The feature you came for sits mostly behind the bigger plan.
Compare MeetEdgar plansMeetEdgar was acquired by SureSwift Capital (announced January 2022), and founder Laura Roeder is no longer involved. Some users report on G2 and Trustpilot that the interface feels dated, that social accounts disconnect more often than they would like, and that Instagram scheduling has limits around Reels — worth weighing against more actively developed alternatives.
Funktionen im Detail
MeetEdgar’s coverage is broad: Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Pinterest, Google Business, and YouTube Shorts. For most everyday networks the two tools overlap.
The differences sit at the edges — and they matter if you post there. MeetEdgar has no Mastodon support, a gap it openly concedes on its own comparison pages. And its YouTube support is Shorts-only: long-form videos cannot be scheduled. SocialKit publishes to all 11 platforms, including native Mastodon and YouTube with both long-form uploads and Shorts. If your content calendar includes a podcast clip, a tutorial, or anything longer than a Short, that difference shows up every week.
Credit where due: evergreen recycling is MeetEdgar’s genuine strength. You file posts into categories, set time slots, and Edgar automatically re-shares library content when the queue runs dry. For coaches, bloggers, and anyone with a deep back catalog of evergreen content, that set-and-forget loop is the reason to use Edgar — and SocialKit does not pitch itself as a recycling specialist.
SocialKit’s focus is the broader publishing workflow: unlimited scheduled posts on every plan, best-time auto-posting, per-platform customization of each post, first-comment scheduling, and native thread posting on X, Threads, Bluesky, and Mastodon. You also get a content library and post templates for reusing what works. If recycling is one tool in your kit rather than the whole strategy, SocialKit covers more of the job.
SocialKit Solo is €29/month flat (€17.40/month billed annually) and includes 15 social accounts across all 11 platforms, unlimited scheduled posts, analytics, AI on every plan, and API + webhooks.
MeetEdgar’s Eddie plan lists at $29.99/month — about $24.91/month when billed annually at $299/year (as of June 2026) — for 5 social accounts, 10 weekly automations, 4 content categories, and 15 Inky AI credits that expire every 30 days. Extra accounts cost $4.99/month each on monthly billing. The bigger Edgar plan is $49.99/month ($499/year) for 25 accounts.
At nearly the same monthly sticker price, SocialKit includes three times the social accounts and one more platform — and on annual billing it is meaningfully cheaper. Check their pricing page for current rates; MeetEdgar has adjusted pricing over the years.
MeetEdgar is genuinely generous with seats: both plans include 20 team members (as of June 2026), which is unusual at this price point. What its pricing page does not list is an approval workflow or post-level commenting — the review step most client work needs before anything goes live.
SocialKit’s Team plan is a flat €49/month (€29.40/month billed annually) with 30 social accounts, 2 seats (extra teammates €2 each, extra accounts €4 each), a built-in approval flow, comments on posts, and user management. If teammates just need login access, Edgar’s 20 seats are plenty; if work needs sign-off before publishing, SocialKit has the workflow for it.
Both products ship an AI assistant. MeetEdgar’s Inky generates captions, hashtags, and post variations, metered at 15 credits/month on Eddie and 50 on Edgar — and credits expire every 30 days, with extra packs at $2.50 per 100 (as of June 2026). SocialKit meters AI too — 150 credits on Solo, 500 on Team, 1000 on Enterprise — so it is AI on every plan, not unlimited, but the entry allowance is ten times Eddie’s.
Both tools include an analytics dashboard. One genuine SocialKit differentiator: API access and webhooks ship on every plan, including Solo — ready for Zapier, Make, and n8n — while MeetEdgar’s pricing page does not list API or webhook access (June 2026). If automation beyond recycling matters to you, that gap is worth checking before you commit.

Eine ehrliche Antwort: Es kommt darauf an, wie du arbeitest. Hier die Kurzfassung.
I love its pricing the most, it gives really good value for money. It's significantly lower cost than the big name alternatives with fewer restrictions on the qty of accounts/staff.
Pretty solid software. I can get more channels for the price versus other platforms.
