How Socifyr and Ayrshare differ
Price of entry
The gap that matters first is the entry point. Ayrshare paid plans start at $149 a month; Socifyr Pro is $9.99 for up to ten connected accounts and Business is $39 for up to forty. If you are an individual developer or a small team running one or two agents, that difference decides most evaluations.Where the agent lives
Socifyr is built around agents and pipelines. The MCP server, the CLI and the TypeScript SDK all share one key, and per-key guardrails (daily limits, X spend caps, require-approval) apply across all of them. Ayrshare has an SDK but no CLI, and its MCP server does not connect on claude.ai.Token handling
In Socifyr, agents get an API key and a workspace ID and never see platform tokens. Our research rated Ayrshare "Partial" on this point; check their current docs for how profile keys and linked-account tokens are exposed.Webhooks cost
Signed webhooks are a Business feature at Socifyr ($39). Ayrshare reaches the same capability at $299.
When Ayrshare may be the better choice
Switching from Ayrshare to Socifyr
If you publish to a handful of your own accounts, migrating is mostly a swap of the call that publishes plus a one-time reconnect of those accounts. These are the concepts to map:
| In Ayrshare | In Socifyr |
|---|---|
| A linked social profile / account | A connection slug such as instagram-mybrand (connect once in the dashboard) |
| Your Ayrshare API key | A Socifyr key (sk_...) plus an X-Workspace-Id header |
| List of platforms in the request | connections: an array of slugs |
| Scheduled date on a post | scheduledAt (ISO 8601) and optional timezone |
| Webhook subscription | POST /api/webhooks with events like upload.completed (Business plan) |

Post through Socifyr
Run the snippet below with your own key and connection slugs.
import { Socifyr } from '@socifyr/sdk'
const socifyr = new Socifyr({
apiKey: process.env.SOCIFYR_API_KEY!,
workspaceId: process.env.SOCIFYR_WORKSPACE_ID!,
})
// Replace the body of your existing publish() helper with this call.
export async function publish(text: string, targets: string[]) {
const post = await socifyr.uploads.text({
connections: targets, // e.g. ['instagram-mybrand', 'linkedin-mybrand']
text, // e.g. 'Hello from Socifyr'
})
return socifyr.uploads.getStatus(post.requestId) // per-channel results
}We have not mirrored Ayrshare's request fields here; map yours from their docs. Reconnect each account in the Socifyr dashboard first, since tokens do not transfer between providers.
