ViralFarm

Your agentic social media scheduler: plan and publish to every channel from one calendar, or let your AI agent schedule for you.

ViralFarm is your agentic social media scheduler built for creators and small teams. Schedule and publish to TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Threads, Facebook, YouTube and X, plus blog posts to WordPress, from one calendar and queue. Write once and tailor the caption for each channel, bulk-schedule a week of posts in one go, publish now or save drafts, and post every format that matters: Reels, Stories, carousels, Shorts, Instagram trial reels, TikTok drafts and long posts for X Premium accounts. When the queue runs low, ViralFarm can fill it with slideshows, carousels and pins built on templates modeled after posts that went viral.

What sets ViralFarm apart is that it is built for AI agents. Its MCP server and REST API let Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf and any MCP client schedule and publish for you on autopilot: upload your photos and videos, post them across every channel on a schedule you describe in plain words, or run one of the preset viral templates to create the post first. Agent access is included on every plan, even Free, and posts your agent writes use no ViralFarm credits.

Best for: Creators, founders and small teams who want one calendar for every channel, run by hand or by their AI agent

Which one should you choose?

Choose ViralFarm if…

  • You want one flat price instead of paying per user. ViralFarm schedules to TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Threads, Facebook, YouTube and X from one calendar, starts free and costs $12 to $39 a month for the whole account; Agorapulse costs $79 to $149 per user per month on annual billing, or $99 to $199 month to month.
  • You want bulk scheduling without paying $149 per user. ViralFarm includes bulk scheduling and per-channel captions, and publishes blog posts to WordPress from the same calendar; Agorapulse keeps CSV bulk scheduling for its Advanced and Custom plans and does not publish to WordPress.
  • Your AI agent runs the schedule. ViralFarm's MCP server and REST API let Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor or any MCP client upload media and schedule or publish across every channel from a plain-language request, on every plan, even Free, and posts your agent writes use no ViralFarm credits.
  • When you need posts to schedule, ViralFarm makes them. It turns a link, topic or pasted text into TikTok and Instagram slideshows, carousels and Pinterest pins on templates modeled after posts that went viral, while Agorapulse's AI focuses on writing and repurposing text.

Agorapulse may suit you if…

  • Engagement is the core of your job. Agorapulse's inbox handles comments, DMs and Google reviews across networks on every plan, adding assignments, saved replies and moderation rules on higher tiers.
  • You report to clients or leadership and need white-label reports, plus ROI, competitor and ads reporting on the Advanced plan.
  • You post to Bluesky or Google Business Profile, which ViralFarm does not support.

Frequently asked questions

Is ViralFarm better than Agorapulse?

For creators and small teams, yes. ViralFarm schedules and publishes to eight networks plus WordPress from one calendar, includes bulk scheduling, starts free and costs $12 to $39 a month for the whole account, versus $79 to $149 per user on Agorapulse. It can also make posts when your queue runs low. Agorapulse is the better fit only if your team works mainly in its inbox and client reports.

Is ViralFarm cheaper than Agorapulse?

Yes, by a wide margin. Agorapulse charges per user: $79, $119 or $149 a month on annual billing ($99, $149 or $199 month to month), each with 10 social profiles, and extra profiles cost $10 to $15 a month each. ViralFarm has a free plan, and its paid plans cost $12, $29 or $39 a month for the whole account, with 3, 8 or 15 channels.

Does Agorapulse have a free trial?

Yes. Agorapulse offers a 30-day free trial with no credit card. ViralFarm has a free plan you can keep using, with 2 channels and 20 published posts a month and no card, plus a 7-day trial of Pro and Premium for first-time subscribers.

Can Agorapulse design posts with AI like ViralFarm?

Not in the same way. Agorapulse has an AI writing assistant for captions, AI alt text, and Archie, which turns articles, webinars and videos into on-brand posts, and it connects to Canva for design. ViralFarm generates the finished visual post, a slideshow, carousel or pin built on a viral template, from a link, topic or pasted text.

Does Agorapulse support X (Twitter)?

Yes, on paid plans through the X Lite add-on, and managing X messages and reports needs X Plus at $50 per X profile a month. ViralFarm publishes plain X posts on every plan, including Free, with no per-account X fee, and supports long posts for X Premium accounts. X posts with links need a paid ViralFarm plan.

Does ViralFarm include an inbox and reports like Agorapulse?

Not yet. ViralFarm focuses on scheduling and publishing the posts that grow your reach. If your main job is answering comments and DMs or sending client reports, Agorapulse covers that.
