Overview
Ordinal is a social media platform built for teams: a shared content calendar, scheduling, AI drafting and employee engagement, where colleagues like, comment and repost from inside the tool. Starter covers up to 3 seats and 4 social profiles with 50 scheduled posts a month. Pro and Growth add unlimited seats, unlimited posts, all-time analytics and team engagement, and Growth adds leads data and a shared Slack channel.
Teams pick Ordinal when social is a team effort rather than one person's brand. Starter is $85/mo billed annually or $95/mo monthly. Pro is $235/mo annually or $265 monthly and adds API and MCP access. Growth is $625/mo annually or $695 monthly, and Enterprise is custom. Extra profiles are $20/mo each and engagement-only profiles $10/mo. Starter and Pro come with a 14-day trial and no card.
