Q: Switching from Publer Lifetime to SocialBu: is X/Twitter truly included for life without extra fees?
Hi!
I own a Publer Business Lifetime deal (30 social accounts, unlimited posts, ChatGPT/MCP integration). Unfortunately, Publer now charges $3.50/month per X account due to API costs.
I’m considering SocialBu Tier 1 ($49) mainly for X, while keeping Publer for Facebook/Instagram.
Before buying, could you confirm:
1. Is X included for life without recurring API fees?
2. Do image/text posts without links count only toward the 600 monthly posts?
3. Could future X API changes introduce fees or restrictions for lifetime users?
4. Can the ChatGPT plugin schedule and publish X posts with images?
5. Are these features and limits guaranteed for Tier 1?
I’d like to avoid repeating my Publer experience. Thanks!

Thanks for asking before purchasing. There are a few important distinctions:
1. X is currently supported without a separate mandatory per-account X subscription fee, within SocialBu’s included allowances. However, I can’t promise unrestricted X access forever regardless of future API changes.
2. Text and image posts without links count toward Tier 1’s 600 monthly posts, shared across your connected accounts. However, that is not the only X restriction: X publishing also has hourly, daily, and additional usage allowances. Tier 1 separately includes 10 X link posts per month.
3. Future X API changes could affect availability or limits. We cannot guarantee that a third-party platform’s pricing, policies, or access requirements will remain unchanged.
4. Our ChatGPT/MCP integration supports scheduling and publishing X posts with images, but it is included from Tier 2 onward. Tier 1 does not include MCP access.
5. Tier 1 provides lifetime access under the deal terms, with its included features and limits. That does not guarantee every network integration will remain unchanged indefinitely.
Given your requirements, Tier 1 would not cover the ChatGPT workflow you described, and I wouldn’t recommend buying it on the assumption that it guarantees 600 X posts every month forever.
