Hypefury was built for growing on X. Evergreen posts, auto-retweets, auto-plugs and auto-DMs made it popular with creators and founders who wanted their best tweets working for them long after they were posted.
That changed. Hypefury's pricing page now answers the question "Does Hypefury still support X/Twitter?" with "Nope! Hypefury no longer supports X." It now focuses on Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok. If X is still your main channel, you need a new tool.
This guide compares seven Hypefury alternatives that still post to X in 2026, with a focus on the automation features Hypefury users relied on, and September 2026 pricing.
Quick answer: Typefully is the closest replacement for most people: a clean editor, X scheduling, auto-plugs, auto-retweets and auto-DMs, with a free plan and a $99/year Creator plan. If you want an X-only growth tool with a viral tweet library and a CRM, choose Tweet Hunter (from $29/month) or SuperX (from $49/month). Buffer and Publer are cheaper if you just need reliable scheduling across networks.
How we compared: we checked each tool's pricing page and documentation in September 2026. Okara publishes this guide. Prices are in USD unless noted and change often, so confirm before you buy.
Quick comparison
| Tool | Best for | X automation (auto-plug, auto-DM) | Starting price (monthly billing) | Free plan |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Typefully | Closest all-round Hypefury replacement | Auto-plugs, auto-retweets, auto-DMs | $99/year (Creator) | Yes, 10 posts/mo |
| Tweet Hunter | X growth with a viral library and CRM | Auto-plug, auto-retweet, auto-DMs, evergreen | $29/mo | No, 7-day trial |
| SuperX | X-only AI writing, auto-DMs and lead signals | Auto-DMs | $49/mo | Free trial |
| Buffer | Simple, cheap scheduling across networks | No | $6 per channel/mo | 3 channels |
| Publer | Low-cost scheduling with post recycling | Recycling on Business | $5/mo for 1 account | Yes, but no X |
| Postwise | AI-written X posts in your voice | No | $37/mo | No, 7-day trial |
| Okara | Founders who need posts written daily, not automated | No | $129/mo | Strategy only |
For reference, Hypefury now costs $6/month per channel on its Flexible plan or $19/month for all channels on its Full plan, with a 7-day free trial. Those channels no longer include X.
Why people are leaving Hypefury
- No X support. This is the big one. If you grew your audience on X, Hypefury can't post there anymore.
- Automation habits. Hypefury users often ran evergreen queues, auto-retweets and auto-plugs. Plain schedulers like Buffer don't do these, so it matters which alternative you pick.
- X API costs changed the market. Tools pay more for X access than they used to. Publer, for example, says it can only support X on paid plans "due to the Twitter / X Enterprise API cost." Expect X features to cost money, or to sit behind a paid tier, wherever you go.
If you've already moved your audience to Bluesky, Threads or LinkedIn, Hypefury's Full plan at $19/month is still reasonable. The rest of this guide is for people staying on X.
The 7 best Hypefury alternatives for X
1. Typefully: the closest all-round replacement
Best for: Creators and founders who want a good writing experience plus the X automation Hypefury had.
Typefully started as a distraction-free editor for tweets and threads, and it's still the best writing experience on this list. It publishes to X (posts, threads and X Articles), LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon and Substack Notes. For Hypefury users, the important part is that its help center documents auto-plugs (a follow-up reply once a post hits an engagement threshold), auto-retweets and auto-DM campaigns.
Auto-DMs come with clear limits: three campaigns at once, up to 500 DMs a day, and each campaign runs for four days after the post goes out. Your first tweet has to mention "DM", "message" or "send" so people know what they're signing up for.
Pros:
- The best editor for threads and long posts
- Auto-plugs, auto-retweets and auto-DMs for X
- Free plan to try it, and cross-posting to five other platforms
Cons:
- Creator is billed yearly only
- AI features and analytics aren't on the free plan
- Business pricing is per social set, so several brands add up
Price: Free (1 social set, 10 posts/month, no AI or analytics); Creator $99/year (1 social set, X analytics, AI writing features); Business $20 per social set/month ($216 per social set billed yearly) with unlimited users and team features. See Typefully pricing for the current offer.
2. Tweet Hunter: X growth in one tool
Best for: X-first creators who want inspiration, scheduling, automation and a lead CRM together.
Tweet Hunter is X-only and built around growth. Every plan includes a library of more than 12 million viral tweets, tweet and thread scheduling, evergreen tweets, auto-plug and auto-retweet, auto-DMs and X analytics. Grow adds an AI writer and a CRM for tracking people you engage with. It is the closest match to Hypefury's X feature set, including evergreen posts.
Pros:
- Evergreen tweets, auto-plug, auto-retweet and auto-DMs in one place
- Large viral tweet library for ideas
- CRM for tracking relationships on X (Grow plan and up)
Cons:
- X only, so you'll need another tool for LinkedIn or Threads
- The AI writer requires Grow
- The pricing page runs promotions, so the price you see may differ
Price: Discover $29/mo (1 X account, 3,000 auto-DMs/month), Grow $49/mo (5 X accounts, 7,500 auto-DMs, AI writer and CRM), Enterprise $200/mo (unlimited accounts, 15,000 auto-DMs). Quarterly and yearly billing are cheaper. 7-day free trial. See Tweet Hunter pricing.
3. SuperX: X-only AI writing and lead signals
Best for: Founders who use X for lead generation and want AI replies and auto-DMs.
SuperX focuses on X and adds features aimed at finding customers. Pro includes 5 connected X accounts, 500 scheduled posts a month, X Article publishing, auto-DMs, a "Signal Agent" that surfaces potential leads, and cross-posting to Bluesky. Advanced adds an AI post and thread writer, a viral posts library and SuperX Engage, which helps you reply at volume.
Pros:
- Auto-DMs on every plan
- Lead-finding features built in
- API, CLI and MCP access
Cons:
- X only (plus Bluesky cross-posting)
- The AI writer requires Advanced
- Automated replies at volume can look spammy if you're not careful
Price: Pro $49/mo (1,000 auto-DMs/month), Advanced $99/mo (listed at a $49 launch price in September 2026), Ultra $199/mo (10 X accounts, 5,000 auto-DMs). Free trial available. See SuperX pricing.
4. Buffer: simple scheduling across networks
Best for: People who post to X alongside other networks and don't need automation.
Buffer is the easy option. It schedules to X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, Instagram, TikTok and more, with an AI assistant and a simple queue. You pay per channel, so you only pay for what you use. It doesn't have auto-plugs, auto-retweets, auto-DMs or evergreen recycling.
Pros:
- Very easy to learn
- Free plan for up to 3 channels
- Cheap for one or two channels
Cons:
- None of Hypefury's X automation
- Cost rises with every channel
- Team features require the Team plan
Price: Free (3 channels, 10 scheduled posts per channel); Essentials $6 per channel/mo ($5 billed yearly); Team $12 per channel/mo ($10 billed yearly). 14-day free trial. See Buffer pricing.
5. Publer: lowest cost, with post recycling
Best for: Solo operators who want X scheduling for very little money and some Hypefury-style recycling.
Publer schedules posts and threads to X, Threads, Bluesky and Mastodon, plus the usual visual networks. Paid plans include unlimited scheduling, first-comment scheduling and a threads composer. The Business plan adds post recycling, analytics, best times to post and competitor analysis.
Pros:
- Very low starting price
- Threads composer for X, Threads, Bluesky and Mastodon
- Post recycling on Business
Cons:
- X isn't available on the free plan
- Recycling and analytics require Business
- No auto-DMs
Price: Free (3 accounts, not X); Professional $5/mo for 1 account, falling to $4 per account from three accounts; Business $10/mo for 1 account, falling to $7 per account from three accounts. Extra team members cost $2 (Professional) or $3 (Business) each. Yearly billing gives two months free. See Publer plans.
6. Postwise: AI-written posts for X
Best for: Creators who mostly struggle with what to post, not when to post it.
Postwise is an AI writing tool for X, LinkedIn and Threads. Its GhostWriter assistant drafts posts in custom AI voices, and you schedule them from the same place. It's a writing tool first, with scheduling attached.
Pros:
- Generates a lot of drafts quickly
- Custom AI voices on every plan
- Supports X, LinkedIn and Threads
Cons:
- No auto-plugs, auto-retweets or auto-DMs listed
- More expensive than Typefully for scheduling alone
- AI drafts still need heavy editing to sound like you
Price: Basic $37/mo (3 social accounts, 500 AI posts/month), Boss $59/mo (5 accounts, analytics), Unlimited $97/mo. 7-day free trial. See Postwise pricing.
7. Okara: when the real problem is writing every day
Best for: Founders who know they should post on X daily but don't have time to write.
Okara is an AI CMO, not a scheduler. Its X Agent, included in AI CMO Lite at $129/month, drafts at least 30 posts a month, including threads, based on your website and brand voice. You edit them, then schedule or post to X from the Okara dashboard. The same plan includes SEO, AI search visibility (GEO) and influencer agents, so X becomes one part of a wider plan.
Be clear about what it doesn't do. Okara has no auto-DMs, auto-plugs, auto-retweets or evergreen queues. If those automations drive your growth, use Typefully or Tweet Hunter, and consider Okara only for the writing.
Pros:
- Daily X drafts in your voice, so you're not starting from a blank page
- Schedule or post to X from the dashboard
- Other marketing channels in the same plan
Cons:
- No X automation features
- More expensive than a scheduler if scheduling is all you need
Price: Free plan (website analysis and strategy only); AI CMO Lite $129/mo ($108/mo billed annually), which includes the X Agent; AI CMO Pro $249/mo adds LinkedIn, Reddit and more. See Okara pricing.

Common questions
Does Hypefury still work with X?
No. Hypefury's pricing page FAQ says it no longer supports X. It now supports Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok.
What's the best free Hypefury alternative?
Typefully's free plan lets you schedule 10 posts a month to X. Buffer's free plan covers 3 channels. Publer's free plan excludes X, so it won't help if X is your main channel.

Typefully and Tweet Hunter both document auto-plugs and auto-retweets for X. Tweet Hunter also has evergreen tweets, which is the closest match to Hypefury's evergreen queue.
Is Tweet Hunter better than Typefully?
It depends on what you value. Tweet Hunter is X-only and focused on growth, with a viral library, evergreen posts and a CRM. Typefully has the better editor and posts to X, LinkedIn, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon and Substack.
Can Okara auto-DM people on X?
No. Okara's X Agent drafts posts and threads and lets you schedule or post them to X. It doesn't send auto-DMs, auto-plugs or auto-retweets.
