evergreen recycling and agency approvals vs queue-based scheduling

Buffer is for creators and small teams in a browser queue. RecurPost centralizes calendars, client approvals, evergreen libraries, and white-label reports for teams that live in the dashboard.

RecurPost

  • > AI Chat Assistant drafts posts inside the composer, inbox, and reports
  • > Per-profile pricing from $9/mo — extra teammates are a flat $20, not another full seat
  • > Agency client workspaces and password-free onboarding keep client accounts separated
  • > Scheduling plus approvals, unified inbox, Instagram DM automation, and white-label reports
  • > Shareable approval links and visible post-failure handling with 850+ error types

Typical Buffer workflow

  • AI Assistant lives inside Buffer — copy still required for external agent workflows
  • Per-channel pricing that climbs before volume tiers kick in
  • One queue for every brand, client, and channel
  • Free plan caps you at three channels and 10 scheduled posts per channel
  • Approval workflows require the Team plan — not on Free or Essentials
