The HeyOrca alternative for teams who approve their own work
HeyOrca is built to get a client's sign-off. SocialPost is built for when the approver is you. No per-brand pricing, no client portal, no waiting.
One waits on a client. One waits on you.
HeyOrca's approval flow is very good at one specific thing: sending a post to someone outside your company and getting a yes back without making them create an account. Agencies need that. HeyOrca built it well.
That is not the bottleneck for a founder or an in-house team. Nobody is waiting on a client. The question is whether the post is any good and whether it sounds like you. SocialPost puts the approval where that question lives: your AI writes the week in your voice, you read the drafts in Claude or ChatGPT, you approve, it schedules.
Per-brand pricing sounds fair until you add the second brand. For a team that approves its own work, a client portal is a door nobody walks through.
SocialPost vs HeyOrca, line by line.
An honest look at both tools. HeyOrca is agency software built around client sign-off. SocialPost is built for the team that approves its own work, and it is free to start.
When the client portal is a door nobody walks through.
Per-calendar pricing scales against you
One brand on HeyOrca Basic is $59 a month. Three is $177. SocialPost Team is $99 a month with unlimited channels and unlimited users, whether you run one brand or six.
You are paying for a client portal with no clients in it
The shareable approval link is HeyOrca's best feature and the reason to buy it. If nobody outside your company signs off on posts, you are funding a door nobody walks through.
Their free plan is a demo. Ours is a plan.
HeyOrca Free gives you 15 posts a month and one user. SocialPost Solo gives you 10 scheduled posts a month, 30 AI generations, the full Claude and ChatGPT connection, and the AI writing in your voice from day one. Free forever, no card.
No AI assistant connection
HeyOrca has Oscar AI in-house. SocialPost connects to the assistant you already use: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok, on every plan including the free one. Ask for the week, read the drafts, approve. You never learn a second interface.
The approval is where the work is
HeyOrca's approval is a handoff between people. SocialPost's approval is a check on what the AI wrote, which is the step that actually decides whether the post is good. Nothing goes out without your say-so.
HeyOrca is a real product.
Here is the honest version of when HeyOrca is the right call.
You are an agency with clients who sign off
The no-login approval link genuinely saves time, it is included on every paid plan, and SocialPost has nothing equivalent.
Your client relationship is the product
Hiding in-progress posts, structured feedback, a clean record of who approved what. HeyOrca is built for that and it shows.
You want unlimited users at the entry tier
HeyOrca gives you unlimited seats on Basic at $59. SocialPost's unlimited seats start at Team, $99. If seat count is the constraint and you only run one brand, they win.
SocialPost wins when the approver and the author are the same person, and when adding a second brand should not double the bill. HeyOrca wins when a client has to say yes first.
HeyOrca charges per brand. SocialPost charges once.
Three brands on HeyOrca Basic is $177 a month, $2,124 a year, or roughly $1,806 on annual billing. SocialPost Team is $99 a month, $891 on annual billing, with unlimited channels and unlimited users. That is about $915 a year back, and it does not change when you add a fourth brand. One brand: HeyOrca Basic is $59 a month, SocialPost Pro is $29.
