In short: LinkIntel gives the AI assistant you already write with your own X results, X's ranking weights and reference posts you chose, so each draft starts from evidence, with read-only access and no new editor to learn. Keep Typefully for scheduling and publishing; LinkIntel makes what you schedule better informed.

Evidence before the draft
LinkIntel reads your own recent original X posts and their metrics every day after you connect X, plus X's open-source ranking weights with a commit link for each value. Your assistant reads both back as a cited brief before it writes. The weights describe what X's ranker rewards, not how many views a post will get.
Typefully's pricing page lists X analytics from the Creator plan up, with metrics such as profile conversion rate, and not on Free. You read them in Typefully. LinkIntel puts your own results where the drafting happens, inside your assistant. The weights are also free to read at /x-algorithm.
Typefully MCP and LinkIntel's MCP server
LinkIntel works inside Claude, ChatGPT and any MCP client, so there is no new editor to learn. Typefully's help article says its MCP server can create, edit and schedule drafts and view your queue and published posts, and the page does not mention analytics.
That is why connecting both to one assistant is coherent: LinkIntel informs the draft, Typefully holds the queue. Your assistant drafts; your scheduler publishes.
Your references, not a generic pool
With LinkIntel you choose the public X posts that matter to you. They are stored with their source links and cited in drafts, alongside your own results.
Writing, publishing, platforms and price
Typefully is where you queue and publish: a focused editor with a calendar, publishing to X, Bluesky, LinkedIn, Threads, Mastodon and Substack, with scheduling on every plan, including Free, which is limited to 10 posts a month. Keep it for that, and for team workflows on its Business plan.
Typefully listed a Free plan, Creator at $99 a year with annual billing only, and Business at $18 a month per social set billed yearly. LinkIntel is $39 USD a month with no free trial and a full refund within 7 days of your first payment. LinkIntel is built around one person's own X account, and its access is read-only, so nothing posts, replies or DMs from it.

Questions
Common questions
- Typefully vs LinkIntel: which should I choose?
- They fit together. LinkIntel gives your AI assistant your own X results, X's ranking weights and your chosen references before it drafts; Typefully schedules and publishes the result. If you only need one, choose by the job: evidence for your assistant, or a queue.
- Can I use LinkIntel and Typefully together?
- Yes, that is the intended setup. Draft in your assistant with LinkIntel connected, then schedule the final text in Typefully. LinkIntel is read-only, so it never touches your queue, and it does not import drafts or history from Typefully.
- Does LinkIntel replace Typefully's analytics?
- For your own X posts, it covers the same ground where you draft: your assistant reads your recent original posts and their metrics, refreshed daily after you connect X, and cites them. You read it through your assistant rather than in an analytics tab.
LinkIntel is $39 USD a month, with no free trial and a full refund within 7 days of your first payment. It reads your X results and never publishes.
