Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Analyst

Weighted verdict

Has to compare metrics the networks define differently and report a number the board believes. Wants history retained past the platforms' own windows, normalisation documented rather than hidden, and UTM attribution that reaches web analytics.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Publishing & calendar

How this is scored

Scheduling across networks: per-network formatting, the calendar as a working surface, bulk operations, and what happens when a post fails at 3am.

0 — One post to several networks at once with no per-network variation and no calendar.

3 — A calendar with scheduling and basic per-network text variants; failures are discovered by noticing the post never appeared.

5 — Per-network content, media and first-comment variants, drafts, a usable calendar with drag-and-drop, and failure notifications with a retry.

8 — Bulk upload and CSV import, evergreen or queue-based scheduling, link shortening with UTM rules, preview matching each network's actual rendering, and stories, reels or shorts supported where the API allows.

10 — Publishing is dependable at volume: hundreds of scheduled items across many accounts without collision, best-time recommendations from the account's own history, and every failure surfaced with the platform error and a one-click recovery.

Report an error

The Analyst

The calendar is a real working surface: three scheduling modes, manual or Autopilot queues, repeating posts with expiration by date or count, and drag-and-drop across weekly and monthly views. I found no public information on bulk upload, per-network variants, previews, or how an overnight failure is surfaced, and that silence is what holds this down. 4 5 12

Engagement & community inbox

How this is scored

Comments, mentions and messages in one queue — the half of the job that is customer service wearing a marketing badge.

0 — No inbox; engagement happens in each native app.

3 — Mentions and comments listed per network with no assignment, no status and no history.

5 — A unified inbox across the connected networks with assignment, status and internal notes, and the conversation history visible per person.

8 — Direct messages included where the API allows, saved replies, SLA timers, sentiment or priority flags, spam and hidden-comment handling, and escalation to a helpdesk.

10 — The inbox is a service desk: every public and private interaction in one queue with ownership and response-time reporting, moderation rules that act automatically, and a per-person history spanning networks.

Report an error

The Analyst

The inbox is documented only for Facebook business pages — direct messages, comments and questions with threading, filters, attachments and a reviewed status that marks itself when answered. I found no public information on assignment, internal notes, per-person history, or inbox coverage for the other connected networks, so the customer-service half of the job stays largely unevidenced. 6 7

Report an error

Analytics & reporting

How this is scored

Measurement across networks with different metrics and retention windows, plus the reporting an agency hands a client.

0 — Per-network vanity counts pulled live; no history kept.

3 — Basic post and profile metrics with a short history and no cross-network comparison.

5 — Metrics stored beyond the networks' own retention, cross-network comparison, competitor benchmarking, and scheduled exports.

8 — Custom dashboards, white-label client reporting, paid and organic combined where the API allows, UTM-based attribution into web analytics, and audience demographics over time.

10 — Reporting answers what worked and why: metrics normalised across networks with the differences documented rather than hidden, full historical retention independent of platform windows, and exports an agency can hand over unedited.

Report an error

The Analyst

Analytics spans five networks plus Google Business Profile and Facebook ads, with scheduled recurring exports by email, SFTP or any HTTP endpoint in CSV or JSON that a warehouse can consume — and, to my liking, the differences between native and PromoRepublic metrics are documented, alongside public notes on the March 2024 Facebook metric change. I found no public information on UTM attribution into web analytics, competitor benchmarking, or retention of metrics beyond the networks' own windows, which is what separates this from the top band. 8 9 13

Approvals, roles & brand safety

How this is scored

How a team of several people and an agency publish to a brand account without an accident — and who can be shown to have approved what.

0 — Shared login, no roles, no approvals.

3 — Separate users with a coarse admin split and an optional single approval step.

5 — Roles per network and account, multi-step approval workflows, comments on drafts, and an activity log.

8 — Client or brand workspaces with strict separation, configurable approval chains including legal review, content locking after approval, and an audit trail of who changed and published what.

10 — Governance a regulated brand could pass an audit on: complete audit trail of edits, approvals and publications, enforced approval before anything reaches a network, granular permissions per account and action, and no shared credentials anywhere in the design.

Report an error

The Analyst

A single approval step is real and enforced: proposed posts will not publish unapproved, a late approval flips to a publish-now button, and the client can edit date, image, caption or boost — while the marketing pages claim role-based permissions for multi-brand, multi-location work. I found no public information on multi-step approval chains, comments on drafts, content locking after approval, or an audit trail of who changed and published what. 1 10

Network coverage & API resilience

How this is scored

Which networks are supported through official APIs, how quickly the vendor follows platform changes, and what the customer keeps when a network breaks or leaves.

0 — A few networks, some through unofficial means, with no statement about API status or platform changes.

3 — The major networks through official APIs, but feature gaps undocumented and platform changes communicated after they bite.

5 — Official API integrations across the main networks with the per-network limitations documented, and a changelog when platform behaviour changes.

8 — Broad official coverage including the newer networks, a public status page for integrations, advance notice of deprecations, and full export of the customer's own publishing and engagement archive.

10 — Platform dependency handled as an engineering commitment: official partner status where it exists, per-network capability documented and kept current, rapid response to API changes with the history to show it, and an archive that stays the customer's whatever a network does next.

Report an error

The Analyst

The main networks plus TikTok and YouTube are supported, the YouTube API is named as the integration route, and per-network capability is tabled alongside articles reacting to platform changes such as the March 2024 Facebook metric deprecation and TikTok's AI-labeling requirement. I found no public information on a public integration status page, advance notice of deprecations, or export of the customer's full publishing and engagement archive. 2 3 4 12 13

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where the archive and the community conversations are processed, who the contracting entity is, which subprocessors touch them. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline. Note that the networks themselves are non-EU by definition — this criterion judges the tool, not the platforms it talks to.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed.

3 — EU hosting offered as an option while the contracting entity is non-EU, or the subprocessor list is absent.

5 — EU hosting as standard and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — AI features, analytics, support tooling — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — EU or DACH hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, complete subprocessor list published, and the handling of message content from the networks described with its legal basis.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, entity, hosting and every subprocessor European, certification published, and a DPA that squarely addresses the personal data arriving from the networks in comments and messages.

Report an error

The Analyst

The contracting entity is PromoRepublic Oy under Finnish law with the District Court of Helsinki as venue, and the privacy policy states personal data is processed in the European Economic Area with adequacy decisions and standard contractual clauses for transfers outside it. The captured pages give different addresses for the company's seat — Helsinki in the privacy policy, Palo Alto on the site — and I found no public information on a subprocessor list or on where the AI providers that process prompts statelessly are located. 1 2 3

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a team can compute the real annual invoice for their account and user count — including the tier where approvals and the inbox begin — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A per-user headline exists, but the number of social accounts included, or the tier where approvals and the inbox appear, is unstated.

5 — Per-user or per-account prices public with billing period stated, but at least one commonly needed capability (inbox, approvals, reporting) sits in an unpriced tier.

8 — Every tier priced publicly with account and user limits, feature boundaries, the cost of an extra account or seat, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual invoice derivable for a given number of social accounts, users and client workspaces, with every add-on priced.

Report an error

The Analyst

The pricing page carries no prices at all, and the terms disclose only that billing is monthly or annual, charged in advance, exclusive of taxes, with a single trial per user and cancellation three days before renewal. The approval workflow is stated to be plan-dependent, but on which plans and at what price we found no public information — a team cannot compute its annual invoice from these pages. 1 2 10
