What Quetzal does that Agorapulse does not.

The week arrives planned and written

Quetzal reads your website and brand kit, plans the week and writes every post in your voice. You open a finished week instead of an empty calendar.

Designed posts and carousels in your brand

Quetzal designs posts, carousels and stories in your colours and type, so every account looks like one brand. Designed images come on every plan, and posts from your own photos are unlimited.

Clients approve without an account

Each client gets a private link to approve posts or ask for a change, with no seat and no login. Review mode holds every post until someone says yes.

Priced per brand, with seats included

A plan covers one brand with its accounts and its team (3 people on Growth, more on larger plans). Agencies pay per client brand on one invoice, with a discount from the third client.

Where Agorapulse is the better pick.

Stay with Agorapulse if your bottleneck is inbox volume and team coordination rather than making the content.

  • A unified inbox for messages and comments on every plan
  • Post and inbox assignments with approval workflows
  • Reporting up to ROI analysis and competitor benchmarking
  • A free plan and a long free trial with no card
