The short answer
Metricool is a social media and ads analytics tool with scheduling, known for its free plan and reporting. Sendible is a social media management tool for agencies, known for client workspaces and unlimited users on every plan.
At 10 channels an exact price gap cannot be worked out, because Metricool prices by brand, not by channel. Metricool lists more networks (11 against 10). On the 10 features we track, Metricool alone has public API and MCP server, and Sendible has nothing Metricool lacks.
Choose Metricool if you post to Pinterest and Twitch, you need public API, you need MCP server and you want a free plan. Choose Sendible if you post to WordPress.
