  7. 7. Infinall AI

    Infinall AI saves your brand once from your store website, then makes images, motion videos, video (Pro), voiceovers and copy in that brand. The Social Hub calendar plans and schedules posts, the inbox answers Instagram and Facebook messages, and you can reply to comments and Google reviews. You can boost a published post or build a paid ad for Meta, Google, LinkedIn or TikTok, and the ad platform charges the budget to your own ad account.

    Watch out: Connecting accounts so posts publish by themselves is Pro only. On Free, scheduled posts become reminders that you post yourself.

How to choose

Start with where your Shopify orders come from. If Pinterest sends you traffic, Tailwind is the specialist: it syncs content from Shopify and turns a product URL into a new Pin every week. If Instagram drives sales, look for link in bio and product tagging. Agorapulse Professional lists Instagram product tagging, and Later, Metricool and Buffer all have link in bio pages.

Next, decide who makes the posts. A scheduler only helps once the product photos and videos exist. Predis.ai makes product ads from a product link, and Infinall AI makes images, motion videos and captions from your saved brand. If you already have a designer or a photo library, a plain scheduler such as Buffer or Metricool costs less.

Then plan for customer questions. Shoppers ask about sizes, stock and delivery in comments and DMs. Pick a plan with an inbox: Later Growth, Agorapulse, Metricool or Infinall Pro. Metricool Flows can also send people from a DM to your catalog.

Check how you will handle ads. Metricool manages Google, Facebook and TikTok ads from one dashboard, Agorapulse Professional replies to ad comments, and Infinall AI boosts a published post from your own ad account.

Finally, price it for your size. A store on 3 channels pays $15 a month on Buffer Essentials, while Agorapulse starts at $79 per user per month.

What a Shopify store needs from a social media management tool

A Shopify store uses social media to sell, so the tool has to do more than post. Keep this list in mind:

  • A calendar for launches, sales and restocks, planned weeks ahead.
  • Publishing to the networks your buyers use, often Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and Pinterest.
  • A way to send people to products: link in bio pages, Instagram product tagging, Pins made from product pages or DM flows to your catalog.
  • One inbox for comments and messages, because product questions turn into orders.
  • A path to paid ads, so a post that sells can be boosted.
  • A steady supply of product images and videos. For many small stores this is the real bottleneck, not the scheduling.

Free plans and trials compared

Three tools here have a plan you can keep using for free:

  • Buffer: free forever for up to 3 channels, with 10 scheduled posts per channel.
  • Metricool: $0 per month for 1 brand, up to 20 posts a month and 30 days of analytics.
  • Infinall AI: 1,000 credits every month, no card. The calendar is free, but posts become reminders until you connect an account on Pro.

Tailwind says you can get started for free with no credit card, but its pricing page does not list the free tier limits. Predis.ai starts every plan with 3 days free and takes a card for the trial. Later and Agorapulse are paid plans, so check their pricing pages for current trial terms.

Where Infinall AI fits for a Shopify store

Infinall AI is not the cheapest scheduler, and it has no Instagram product tagging or Pinterest keyword research. If your product content already exists, Buffer, Metricool or Tailwind will cost less. Infinall helps when making the content is the hard part. You add your store website once and it saves your logo, colours and voice, then makes product images, motion videos and captions that match. Shopify is also in the Connectors directory, so Infinall Chat can use data from apps you connect.

Pro costs $10 for the first month, then $30 a month or $299 a year, with 3,000 credits a month. In India Pro is Rs 999 for the first month, then Rs 2,899 a month or Rs 33,999 a year. It includes 2 free account connections, shared by social profiles and ad accounts, then each extra account uses 300 credits a month. Planning, scheduling and publishing never use credits. A live ad or boost uses 2 credits a month, and the ad platform charges the budget to your own ad account. Infinall does not buy media for you.

For individuals, solopreneurs and agencies

If you run a Shopify store on your own, start free: Buffer covers 3 channels and Metricool covers 1 brand. Later Starter at $18.75 USD per month billed yearly is a low-cost step up for an Instagram-led shop, and Tailwind Pin Scheduling & Creation at $17.99 per month billed yearly suits a Pinterest-led one.

Agencies that run social for several Shopify clients need separate brands and approvals. Metricool Advanced adds team and client management with post approvals, Predis.ai keeps clients in separate workspaces, and Agorapulse adds shared content calendars on Advanced.
