  • Each has a real cost: Agorapulse standard, Professional and Advanced tiers all cap at 10 connected social profiles; unlimited profiles require the custom-priced tier; Runway the free tier is 125 one-time credits rather than a monthly allowance, so it runs out and does not refill

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Agorapulse

  • Standard, Professional and Advanced tiers all cap at 10 connected social profiles; unlimited profiles require the custom-priced tier
  • Additional social profiles beyond the plan limit cost $10 to $15 per month each
  • Monthly billing runs noticeably higher than the quoted annual rate, for example $99 per month monthly versus $79 per month paid annually on Standard

Runway

  • The free tier is 125 one-time credits rather than a monthly allowance, so it runs out and does not refill
  • Outputs carry a watermark until the Standard plan at $12 a month
  • Everything is metered in credits, and Gen-4.5 video costs 60 credits per 5 seconds, so a Standard plan covers roughly 125 short videos a year
  • Only the Max plan at $76 a month rolls unused credits over, and only for one month
  • The free tier gives a selection of models rather than the full set
