Why teams switch from Planly to NapoleonCat
A full Social Inbox – not just Facebook and Instagram
Manage comments, DMs, mentions, and reviews across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Google Business in one place – not just the two platforms Planly’s inbox supports.
AI auto-moderation that hides spam and hate automatically
Spam and hate comments are detected and hidden the moment they’re posted – no keyword lists or rules to build. Planly’s scheduler-first setup doesn’t cover this at all.
Social CRM for context-rich replies across channels
Every customer’s conversation history across your social profiles lives in one profile, so whoever picks up a message always has full context – something Planly doesn’t offer.
Ad comment moderation on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok
Hide, reply to, or assign comments under your paid posts the same way as your organic ones – ad moderation isn’t part of Planly’s scope.
Advanced analytics with competitor benchmarking
Track your profile growth, content performance, moderation efficiency, and your competitors’ – with fully customizable, automated, white-label PDF reports sent straight to your inbox.
Chat support and 1:1 onboarding on every plan
Email and chat support come standard, and onboarding training is included – not gated to a single top-tier plan.

A unified social inbox for comments, DMs, and reviews – not just a scheduler
The heart of NapoleonCat is the Social Inbox – one dashboard for all your engagement and teamwork. Track and manage all comments, DMs, and even Google reviews from all your locations. Assign them to team members, leave notes and tags, and centralize your social media customer service for quicker replies and higher customer satisfaction.
AI auto-moderation that hides spam and hate automatically
Hand over the part of moderation that doesn’t need human attention to automation. Your AI Assistant can reliably and consistently detect and tag spam and hate in the comments and DMs. And Auto-moderation will swiftly hide it from view, so it doesn’t disrupt conversations and engagement (and doesn’t take up your team’s precious time).
Social CRM for tracking customer history across every platform
Reply in a more relevant and personalized way with Social CRM. Each customer profile has all your previous conversations across your social media profiles in one place. So you have instant access to context and don’t have to scroll through tons of old engagement just to find out what happened before.
AI reply suggestions for fast, on-brand responses
Apart from helping you sort through spammy content, AI can also help you with genuine engagement. Ask AI to generate a reply suggestion based on your previous replies and the content you provide it – and reply faster without compromising engagement quality.
Multi-platform direct publishing with team approvals
Besides moderation, NapoleonCat also includes a shared publishing calendar for all your social media channels. Schedule posts, Reels, Stories, and more, collaborate with content creators and designers, send for approval, add feedback, and automatically post – all glitch-free.
Cross-platform analytics and automated reports
Time to check engagement on your posts and moderation performance – no worries, you’ll find the right analytics metrics right in your NapoleonCat account. Need to send them to a client or CMO? Schedule an automated report with all the important KPIs, sent straight to their email inbox.
Responsive customer support replying in minutes
If you’re used to software tools not responding to your support emails, first of all, we’re sorry! And second of all, NapoleonCat’s support team is here, available to answer your questions no matter what subscription plan you’re on.
The actual ultimate social media management tool?
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.
