What does Paper Route do for the money?

Paper Route is a content employee for real estate agents: it texts you the ideas and the week’s posts; reply yes or ask for a change, with up to 4 edits per post. Each carousel and reel is written from scratch for your market. Carousels close on your name, brokerage and a DM ask that says why; reels put you on screen. You're on screen in two ways: film a take on your phone and we edit it professionally, or we make a hyperrealistic AI video of you talking to camera in your own cloned voice, with no filming.

Starter is $29 for 6 posts a month in market update and educational formats. Plus is $39 for 8 posts in all five formats and posts to your Instagram once you say yes. Pro is $79 for 16 posts; your changes go first. The first week is free, with no card. See Paper Route’s plans and prices.

Which other options publish posts for you?

Three other options publish posts for you under $100 a month: Agent Crate Automate ($99), Boomp ($39 or $79) and Aibrify ($99). Agent Crate posts to Instagram and Facebook, Boomp posts to your profiles after you approve, and Aibrify puts a person on the account.

Agent Crate: 4 posts a week, $99

Agent Crate lists Create as 500+ templates and a content calendar you post yourself; Automate adds 4 Instagram posts a week, pushed to Facebook, with automatic publishing. Choose Agent Crate if you want templates and ready-made posts on one bill. See the Agent Crate and Paper Route comparison and the Agent Crate alternatives.

Boomp: 22 or 28 posts from your website

Boomp makes posts for any small business from its website and posts them to your profiles after you approve. Choose Boomp if you want posts made from your own website, 22 to 28 a month. Its page lists no real estate formats.

Aibrify: a person publishes 20 posts

Aibrify says a person plans the month and publishes 20 posts, “written and published for you”. Choose Aibrify if you want a person running the account. Comment and review replies are listed only on the $199 Managed Pro plan. Verdict: Aibrify suits an agent who wants a person, not a text thread, running the account.

Templates

Which template memberships fit the budget?

Three template services leave the finishing to you: The Social Broker ($47 a month billed monthly), Coffee & Contracts ($74 a month) and Curated Social ($0 a month). None lists a monthly post count; Paper Route Starter lists 6 for $29.

The Social Broker: $47 reels and templates

The Social Broker lists “Done for you and customizable reels, post templates” . Choose it if you will customize and post yourself. It does not publish for you or state a post count. Verdict: the $47 buys templates, reels to customize and strategy calls; you finish and post each one.

Coffee & Contracts: $74 content library

Coffee & Contracts gives one usage license, all its content and a members-only Facebook group, and also bills $199 quarterly. Choose it if you want a content library to post from. It lists no monthly post count and no posting for you.

Curated Social: free weekly posts

Curated Social gives a free account with new weekly posts. Premium, listed from $25 a month paid annually, shows no monthly price, so only the free account counts. Choose it if you have $0 and want posts to grab.

Do it yourself

Which design and scheduling tools fit?

Two do-it-yourself tools cost under $100 a month billed monthly: Canva Pro at $18 for design and scheduling, and Buffer, free or $6 a month per channel. Canva Pro plus Buffer Essentials is $24; neither writes a post.

Canva Pro: $18 design and scheduling

Canva Pro lists social media content scheduling, premium templates, AI tools and five brand kits for one person, at $18 billed monthly. Choose it if you design your own posts. It does not write the posts or pick topics. Verdict: Canva Pro covers design and scheduling, but every post still costs you time.

Buffer: free scheduling, $6 a channel

Buffer is a scheduler: Free covers 3 channels with 10 scheduled posts per channel; Essentials, $6 a month per channel billed monthly, has unlimited scheduled posts. Choose it if you already have posts and need them published on time.
