What Is Metricool?

Metricool lets creators, brands, and agencies schedule social content, analyze account and campaign performance, monitor competitors, manage messages and comments, and build reports from connected social and advertising networks. Its planner includes multi-network publishing, while SmartLinks, hashtag and competitor analysis, ad reporting, and client-management features extend the platform beyond basic scheduling.

Best for: Creators, brands, and agencies that want social scheduling, analytics, competitor tracking, inbox management, and advertising reports together.

Metricool organizes connections by Brand, with one account per supported network inside each Brand and only one Brand on its Free tier. SmartLinks can combine media and buttons, then report visits, clicks and click-through rates. The February 2026 product update also restricts its guided Recurring Schedule functionality to Advanced plans, so repeated campaigns may require a different setup on lower editions.
