MagicPost alternatives

4 tools our write-ups put next to MagicPost, with starting price, free tier, MCP and API side by side.

MagicPost from $29/mo Free trial MCP server API

The short answer

  • Taplio : LinkedIn growth suite if you want a broader creator toolkit. From $39/mo
  • AuthoredUp : LinkedIn editor if formatting and analytics are enough. From $19.95/mo
  • Supergrow : Another LinkedIn content tool if you do not need agency seats. From $19/mo
  • Buffer : Multi-network scheduler if LinkedIn is only one channel. From $5/channel/mo

Why people look past MagicPost

AI post generation and API/MCP start on the second plan ($39/mo annual, $69 monthly). The entry plan is manual writing plus analytics.

What we noted

  • LinkedIn only, no other networks
  • AI generation not on the entry plan
  • Best prices need annual billing

Not the right fit for

  • People who need Instagram, TikTok or X in one tool
  • Buyers who want AI writing on the cheapest plan

Worth keeping in mind: Publishes through LinkedIn's official API, not a browser extension, with an MCP server on the content plan.

What each one does differently

Taplio

$39/mo 7 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: LinkedIn growth suite if you want a broader creator toolkit.

Stands out: Hosted LinkedIn MCP server, so Claude or ChatGPT can draft, schedule, and queue comments on your Taplio account.

Watch out: The 7-day trial gives full Pro access, then you move to the plan you picked. Unlimited AI credits and automated lead outreach are on Pro at $199/mo.

Best for

  • Creators who want LinkedIn drafts, analytics, and comments in one app
  • Founders building a personal brand on a $39 plan
  • Users who will run LinkedIn from Claude via MCP

AuthoredUp

$19.95/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: LinkedIn editor if formatting and analytics are enough.

Stands out: A hosted MCP server and a REST API come with trial and paid accounts, so AI assistants can read your posts, stats and drafts.

Watch out: Business costs $14.95 per profile per month with a three-profile minimum. The free trial has no stated length, and there is no free-forever plan.

Best for

  • Individuals formatting and scheduling LinkedIn posts
  • Small teams sharing drafts across three or more profiles
  • Users who want Claude to read drafts via MCP

Supergrow

$19/mo 7 day free trial MCP

Why it comes up: Another LinkedIn content tool if you do not need agency seats.

Stands out: Postcast turns a short AI interview into several LinkedIn posts, and Pro adds a Supergrow MCP server for Claude or ChatGPT.

Watch out: Starter caps Postcast at 2 sessions and leaves out carousels, analytics and MCP. Those need Pro at $39/mo.

Best for

  • Solo creators starting on the $19 Starter plan
  • Executives who would rather talk than write posts
  • People repurposing videos, articles and PDFs

Buffer

$5/channel/mo Free tier 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Multi-network scheduler if LinkedIn is only one channel.

Stands out: MCP is included on the free plan, so Claude or ChatGPT can draft and queue posts without a paid seat.

Watch out: The $5 figure is per channel on yearly billing; monthly costs more. Free caps you at 10 scheduled posts per channel and one user.

Best for

  • Creators scheduling LinkedIn and other networks from one queue
  • Teams that want MCP on the free plan
  • Developers using the Buffer API
