Ocoya vs Hopper HQ
Visual-first social scheduling, priced per connected account.
3 to Hopper HQHopper HQ is a visual-first scheduler priced per connected account: $5 a month each on Grow, $10 on Scale, which adds unlimited users and approvals. For two or three accounts that is hard to beat, and analytics, link in bio and an AI caption assistant come with every plan. The per-account price is also where it turns — twenty accounts on Scale is $200 a month. Ocoya charges a flat $29, $79 or $199 and spends it on making the content: AI images, a design studio, campaigns, an inbox and workflows. If you schedule a few accounts and already have the content, Hopper HQ. If producing the content is the work, us.

| AI copywriting | AI captions from a prompt, with brand voice, tone and length controls, on every plan — plus rewrite, shorten, expand, tone and translate on any caption. Copilot, beside the post editor, also writes or reworks a caption when you ask | Unlimited AI assistant on every plan — caption writing and hashtag generation |
| AI image & video | AI image generation in-app — in Copilot, the post composer, campaigns and workflows, from the same credit pool. No AI video generation yet | AI image upscaling; no image or video generation advertised |
| Campaign generation | One prompt becomes a whole campaign — posts, visuals and a schedule across every network. Blog campaigns start from keyword research and write a run of SEO articles, each with an SEO score, for your blog or CMS | Posts are written one at a time; bulk upload and CSV import for volume |
| Design tooling | Design Studio built in — templates, brand kit and a full editor in the same tab as the calendar | Built-in image editing — crop, filters, frames, text overlays and colour adjustment; no template editor |
| Networks | Integrations: Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Pinterest, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube Shorts, Google Business, TikTok, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Mastodon, Dribbble, Tumblr, WordPress, DEV.to, Whop, Notion, Airtable, Framer, Wix, Twitch, Kick, WooCommerce, and Custom | Nine networks: Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts, Threads and Bluesky |
| Unified inbox | DMs, comments, mentions and Google reviews from Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, Google Business, Telegram, Discord, Mastodon, WordPress and Whop in one inbox, with AI reply suggestions, assignment, open/resolved statuses and internal notes. On Facebook and Instagram you can also hide or delete a comment and ban its author | No inbox advertised |
| Workflow automation | Visual workflows that start on a schedule, from an RSS feed or a webhook, a new WooCommerce product, a new Notion, Airtable, Framer or Wix item, or a new DM, comment or review — with AI text and image steps — then publish to any channel or reply. An AI agent can trigger them too | Auto-publishing, bulk upload and CSV import — no workflow builder, triggers or RSS listed |
| MCP / AI assistant control | mcp.ocoya.com — an OAuth-secured MCP server covering the whole product: create, design, schedule, run workflows and switch brands. Included on every plan | No MCP server published |
| Analytics | In private beta — not yet open to every account | On every plan — reach, engagement, follower growth, hashtag performance and best time to post, with one-click report export |
| Approval workflows | Request approval on any post: pick which brand members review it, they get an email with one-click approve or reject, and the post cannot publish until it is approved. Every decision is logged on the post. Not gated behind a higher tier | Post approvals and team permissions — Scale plan only |
| Link in bio | Bio pages built in — a link-in-bio page at yourname.tool.bio on every plan (each page uses one social profile slot) | Link-in-bio page on every plan, with your own colours, fonts and layout, and click data |
| Free trial | 7-day free trial of the full product | 14-day free trial; a payment method is taken at signup |
| SEO content | SEO blog campaigns built in — keyword research finds what people search for, AI writes a run of articles around those keywords, each gets an SEO score with one-click fixes, and they publish to your blog or CMS on a schedule | No keyword research or article writing — social posts only |
| Email marketing | Email marketing built in — unlimited contacts, signup forms and imports, AI-written emails in your brand voice, a block editor, and scheduled sends from your own domain, all in the same plan as your social posts | No email campaigns or newsletters — social channels only |
