Why teams switch from Sprout Social

A fraction of the per-seat cost

Sprout Social starts at $249/seat/mo. So-me Studio's Lite plan is $15/mo and the Standard plan $35/mo. Most teams save thousands a year.

AI on every plan

Sprout's AI Assist sits at the top tiers. So-me Studio includes AI captions on every plan, free tier included, unlimited on Advanced.

Analytics without an upsell

Sprout charges extra for custom reports. So-me Studio includes per-platform and single-post analytics with period-over-period growth, plus data export, on every plan.

Same unified inbox idea, simpler UX

Sprout pioneered the unified inbox. So-me Studio gives you the same, comments, DMs and mentions across every inbox-enabled platform, with saved replies and bulk reply, minus the learning curve.

Post from any AI chatbot

Let Claude, ChatGPT or any AI agent run your posting through So-me Studio's MCP server (200+ tools), REST API and CLI, from the Standard plan. Sprout gates API access behind enterprise contracts.
