Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Minter.io
Social profile analytics billed per account
Minter.io reports on one social profile at a time and charges that way, which suits somebody running three accounts and nothing like a marketing department. Instagram is where it goes deepest, down to stories, reels, collabs and hashtag performance. Reports are scheduled and emailed rather than waiting in a dashboard nobody opens. Adding a competitor's public profile costs the same as adding your own.
Our note
Count your profiles first and multiply, because this is cheap at two accounts and expensive at ten in a way the headline price hides. Iconosquare and Metricool are the flat-rate comparisons; Minter.io wins when you track few accounts deeply and loses when you track many.

SocialBee
Category-based scheduling for a steady mix
SocialBee organises the queue into content categories and posts from each in rotation, so the ratio of promotion to everything else is a setting rather than a good intention. Evergreen posts can be recycled on a schedule instead of being written again. There is an AI assistant for drafts and captions, and an agency-shaped side with client workspaces. The trial is two weeks on the Pro plan with no card, which is enough to see whether the category model fits how you plan.
