What Metricool does
Who it’s for: people in charge of communications at a small or midsize business, and those who have to report numbers on social media.
The publishing calendar
You create a post, check the networks, adapt the text for each one, and place it in the calendar. It goes out at the set time. Networks: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Threads, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, Twitch, Bluesky, and Google Business Profile.
The best times to post
A grid shows, day by day and hour by hour, when your audience is most active. The darker the cell, the better the slot. For LinkedIn and YouTube, these are general estimates, not your own numbers.
Your statistics and your competitors’
Metricool brings together the numbers from all your networks: followers, views, reactions, top posts. You also follow competitor accounts to compare yourself.
Also

A report ready to send

Nova’s advice
Start with the free plan if you post on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok. Move to Starter the day you need LinkedIn, a report to send, or more than 20 posts per month. Advanced is only worth it for working as a team with approval.
