Where they pull apart

MagicPost

Stands out: Publishes through LinkedIn's official API, not a browser extension, with an MCP server on the content plan.

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

Not the right fit for

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

Taplio

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.

Not the right fit for

Sales teams that need a multi-seat LinkedIn sequencer, not a creator studio
Buyers who will not live in LinkedIn content
