Kavio vs Buffer

Buffer is simple for small channel counts, but cost and workflow friction increase as you add brands and platforms.

Pricing

Kavio: Starter includes a 7-day trial, then $5/mo. Paid plans from $19/mo, with 30 accounts on Pro ($24/mo).

Buffer: Lower entry point, but pricing scales per channel and can become expensive for multi-client use.

Kavio: 12 connection types including Threads, Bluesky, and Mastodon in one calendar.

Buffer: Strong on major networks, but less coverage for teams needing broader channel mix.

Kavio: Creators, teams, and agencies that need one workspace model across many brands.

Buffer: Individuals with lighter publishing cadence and fewer connected accounts.

Migrating old scheduled posts may require manual recreation.
