Lately.ai

A closer look at Lately.ai

Lately is an AI social content assistant for enterprises, franchises, small businesses and agencies: it generates social posts with its Social Post Autogenerator and Video Clip Autogenerator, supports social selling and employee advocacy, and connects with Hootsuite, HubSpot Marketing Hub, Sprinklr and Salesforce. A chat-based agent called Kately is presented as new, and Hootsuite users can connect any Hootsuite account without switching. The pricing page lists Starter at $14 per month billed annually or $19 billed monthly, Growth at $199 per month billed annually or $239 billed monthly, and Enterprise custom, with an Enterprisely plan for employee advocacy syndication and nonprofit pricing on annual contracts.

Check before committing

• Much of the homepage text read is industry and navigation boilerplate; the product substance comes from the product, solutions and pricing sections.
• The homepage carries placeholder-style repeated industry blurbs; this page relies on the concrete product and pricing statements.
