One tool for every network, or one built for LinkedIn

Metricool's defining trait is breadth — Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Pinterest, Threads, Bluesky and LinkedIn from one dashboard. But that breadth has trade-offs when LinkedIn is your real focus. ContentIn is the opposite: built only for LinkedIn.
  • Every feature designed around LinkedIn content
  • LinkedIn scheduling included from the $15 Essentials plan
  • Company-page posting and leads analytics on Pro

A specialist beats a generalist for LinkedIn

Metricool schedules your posts — ContentIn writes them

This is the gap that matters most. Metricool is a scheduling and analytics tool: it helps you publish and measure content, but it doesn't create it. Everything you schedule, you wrote yourself first. ContentIn's AI Ghostwriter (Growth plan, $31/month) is trained on your style and drafts full posts that sound like you.
  • Write posts in your own voice with a trained AI Ghostwriter
  • Turn any URL, blog post, or past post into fresh LinkedIn ideas
  • Draft, design carousels, and schedule a week of content in one session

The tool does the hardest part: actually writing

Analytics and reporting: broad dashboards vs LinkedIn-deep insight

Analytics is where Metricool is genuinely strong. It offers cross-platform dashboards, competitor benchmarking, white-label PDF and PowerPoint reports, and a Looker Studio connector on higher tiers. For an agency reporting on many channels to many clients, that depth is a real selling point.

ContentIn's analytics are narrower by design, but deeper on LinkedIn and wired straight into the content workflow:

  • Post and comments analytics to see exactly what's landing on LinkedIn

  • Leads analytics on Pro to track audience conversions and exports

  • Insight that feeds back into the Ghostwriter, so your next post learns from your best one

Easily plan and upload all your LinkedIn posts at once

Why ContentIn wins for LinkedIn-focused creators

  • AI Ghostwriter trained on your voice — Metricool has no AI writing, only a caption assistant

  • LinkedIn included from the $15 Essentials plan — Metricool keeps LinkedIn off its free plan and charges a paid tier just to connect it

  • Purpose-built for LinkedIn: ghostwriter, viral templates, AI carousels, idea generation, FeedZen, AI comments, and repurposing

  • A closed loop — create, schedule, measure, improve — all on LinkedIn, in one place

  • Full AI writing and LinkedIn depth from $31/month

Metricool is an excellent generalist if your job is managing many brands across many platforms. But it treats LinkedIn as one network among ten, and it never writes a word for you. If LinkedIn is where you're building your brand, ContentIn gives you what Metricool can't: content created in your voice, inside a tool built end to end for LinkedIn.
