Post Limits

Posting limits that apply in Social Post Flow.

By default, Social Post Flow has no scheduling limits – queue as many posts as you like across your connected profiles.

There’s one exception: X link posts.

Why X has a limit

On July 1st 2026, X (formerly Twitter) moved to a pay-per-use API pricing model, charging $0.20 for every post containing a link and $0.015 for every text-only post. To keep Social Post Flow affordable, while remaining sustainable, each plan includes a monthly allowance of X link posts:

PlanPriceX Link Posts / Month
TrialFree4 (during trial)
Starter$49 / year10 / month
Growth$99 / year20 / month
Pro$199 / year40 / month

Limits reset on the 1st of each calendar month.

What counts as a link post?

A post counts against your monthly X link post limit if any of the following contain a URL:

  • The URL field on a Link post
  • The text of a Text or Image post
  • The first comment attached to a Text or Image post

Everything else – text-only posts, image posts without URLs, videos, threads – is unlimited on every plan.

What if I need more?

Connect a Buffer Account

Social Post Flow supports connecting a Buffer account as an integration. Profiles connected to your Buffer account then become available for use in Social Post Flow.

Best of all, Buffer doesn’t have any limits on X posts.

  1. Sign up for Buffer — their free plan supports 3 profiles.
  2. In Buffer, connect the X account(s) you want to route through Buffer.
  3. In Buffer, generate a Personal API Key from your API Access settings.
  4. In Social Post Flow, go to Manage ProfilesBuffer.
  5. Paste your API Key, click Connect, then select which Buffer channels to add to Social Post Flow.

Buffer-routed profiles appear prefixed with “Buffer:” in your profiles list, so they’re easy to distinguish from directly-connected profiles.

Upgrade your plan

Upgrade your plan. Growth doubles Starter’s allowance, Pro quadruples it. You can change plans anytime from your Billing page.

24-hour rolling limits

Some social networks impose their own limits on how many posts can be published to a single profile in any 24-hour window. Social Post Flow honours these platform-level limits automatically — you don’t need to worry about them. You’re still free to schedule as many future posts as you like; they’ll be delivered within each network’s rate limits when their scheduled time arrives.
