Flexible, usage-based pricing that costs a fraction of Sprout Social
Let’s start with affordable, shall we? NapoleonCat’s pricing is reasonable and flexible, starting at just $79 a month. Pick your plan, adjust the number of users and profiles, and still pay less than most social media management platforms with similar capabilities. No hidden fees included.
AI Auto-moderation that filters spam so your team handles real conversations
The AI Assistant in the Social Inbox automatically detects spam and hate – and even comment sentiment. Then the Auto-moderation can take over and automatically remove spammy messages and comments. No manual spam removal from now on.
A streamlined Social Inbox built for high-volume comment management
The experience you’ll have moderating all comments and DMs with just one Social Inbox? We’re already jealous! Everything in one dashboard, where you can reply, like, assign to moderators, and leave notes and tags. (And not worry about manual spam removal if you automate it.)
Transparent billing with no hidden contracts or surprise auto-renewals
The pricing in NapoleonCat is clear, and so is the billing. We won’t surprise you with an unannounced annual billing you’ll discover in your bank account. Or with small print that later has big consequences.
Track customer history and relationships with built-in Social CRM
A CRM but for social media interactions? Yes, please! The Social CRM will show you your previous conversations with your customers across your social media channels, so you and your team can always access the important context and provide relevant answers.
Responsive customer support included in every plan – not just enterprise
NapoleonCat’s customer support is for every customer – not just the highest-paying. And it’s what our customers really appreciate. (You could be one of them!)
Role-based team permissions with workspace-level access control – included in every plan
If you manage multiple brands or work for many clients, you can comfortably separate different teams and social media channels into Workspaces. Complete with their own sets of tags, team roles, and permissions, they’ll make your life easier (at least on social media).
An affordable Sprout Social alternative we think you’ll love
Here’s why our clients love NapoleonCat
Join businesses that save hours every week with an all-in-one social media management platform
It’s hard to imagine our work without a tool that includes so many valuable features. It won’t be an overstatement when I say that NapoleonCat saves us multiple full-time positions that would be dedicated to just moderating comments or manually generating reports.
NapoleonCat saves up to one-third of a full-time position. That’s time we would otherwise spend manually moderating thousands of comments each month using the Meta Business Suite, profile by profile and comment by comment. Time we can now use for growth. NapoleonCat is the best tool of its kind on the market, and it’s still constantly evolving and improving by introducing new AI features.
It’s the first social media engagement tool we have ever tried that is truly intuitive and that makes it easy for us to include the clients in the process. The service and support is great and personal. And the value for money is great!
We work with multiple clients, and with NapoleonCat, we don’t waste time switching between multiple software tools. We can also deliver reliable data from a single source. We tested other social media moderation and analytics tools before, but none of them lived up to what NapoleonCat delivers. They’re the best, and I personally love using the tool. 🙂
NapoleonCat is now an indispensable tool that we use for moderation and analytical purposes, as well as content publishing. We’re curious to see new capabilities of the tool and test its new uses, for example, to moderate TikTok ad comments, as we predict this social media channel to become more and more important for our clients.
