TryPost: the open source Agorapulse alternative
Agorapulse is built around the social inbox: replies, DMs, mentions, all unified. It's a strong product if engagement is your team's daily fire. TryPost is built around the calendar instead. If publishing and team workflows are the daily fire, the comparison favors us, and the open source angle closes the gap further.
Why teams move from Agorapulse to TryPost
Open source
Self-host TryPost free with no caps. Agorapulse is closed SaaS.
Lower price for publishing-focused teams
Agorapulse's Standard plan is $79/user/month. TryPost Pro covers 15 users on a single plan price.
AI and MCP
Agorapulse added AI Writing Assistant in 2023. TryPost ships 5 AI generators + an MCP server.
Modern stack
TryPost is built on Nuxt 4 / TypeScript / edge runtime. Agorapulse is feature-rich but heavier.
