# Launch Plan Overview

> Entry-level Business plan for teams launching multi-user social media management on Ayrshare

The **Launch Plan** is the entry-level tier of the [Ayrshare Business Plan](/multiple-users/business-plan-overview). It's designed for companies, agencies, and platforms that are just starting to manage social media on behalf of their users, clients, or brands and don't yet need the scale of the full Business plan.

The Launch Plan includes the same multi-user APIs as the full Business plan (posting, analytics, comments, DMs, and ads on behalf of your users) at a lower starting price, with a smaller profile cap to match the needs of early-stage teams. Post quotas, API rate limits, and support match the full Business plan.

To get started, see current pricing and start your subscription on the [Ayrshare pricing page](https://www.ayrshare.com/pricing/).

## Who Launch Is For

<ul class="custom-bullets">
  <li>Early-stage SaaS platforms adding social posting for their first users.</li>
  <li>Agencies onboarding a small set of clients before scaling further.</li>
  <li>Teams running a pilot or proof-of-concept that needs production-grade APIs without committing to the full Business plan.</li>
  <li>Anyone who needs Business-tier features (multi-user JWT linking, per-user analytics, comments, DMs, ads) for **up to 10 user profiles**.</li>
</ul>

<Note>
  The Launch Plan is capped at 10 [User Profiles](/multiple-users/manage-user-profiles)
  (sub-profiles, separate from your primary account). Once you reach the cap,
  the API returns an error with upgrade guidance, and the dashboard shows the
  same message as a toast. To add more, upgrade to the full
  [Business Plan](/multiple-users/business-plan-overview).
</Note>

## What's Included

The Launch Plan gives you the full Business API surface for managing multiple users, capped at 10 [User Profiles](/multiple-users/manage-user-profiles):

<ul class="custom-bullets">
  <li>
    A single API call to post to your users' [social media networks](/apis/post/overview): Bluesky,
    Facebook, Google Business Profile, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Reddit, Snapchat,
    Telegram, Threads, TikTok, X, and YouTube.
  </li>

  <li>
    [Schedule posts](/apis/post/overview#schedule-posts) and [auto-schedule](/apis/auto-schedule/overview) at pre-determined times.
  </li>

  <li>
    [Per-user analytics](/apis/analytics/overview) on posts, social profiles, and links.
  </li>

  <li>
    [Comment management](/apis/comments/overview) and [direct messages](/apis/messages/overview) on supported platforms.
  </li>

  <li>
    [Facebook Ads](/apis/ads/overview) created from existing posts.
  </li>

  <li>
    [Hashtag automation](/apis/hashtags/overview), [RSS feeds](/apis/feeds/overview), [post validation](/apis/validate/overview), and [post history](/apis/history/overview).
  </li>

  <li>
    Secure social authentication via [JWT](/multiple-users/api-integration-business): your users connect their own accounts and you never handle their credentials.
  </li>
</ul>

## How the Launch Plan Compares to the Full Business Plan

The Launch Plan and full Business Plan share the same API tier and feature set for posting, analytics, comments, DMs, and ads. The differences are about scale and add-ons:

| Capability                                  | Launch                              | Business                    |
| ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | --------------------------- |
| User Profile cap                            | Up to 10                            | 30+ (scales as needed)      |
| Core posting, analytics, comments, DMs APIs | Included                            | Included                    |
| Facebook Ads add-on                         | Available                           | Available                   |
| [Max Pack](/additional/maxpack) add-on      | Available at a reduced Launch price | Available                   |
| Free trial                                  | 14 days                             | Available, see pricing page |

Post quotas, API rate limits, and support are the same on the Launch Plan and the full Business Plan.

For exact pricing and the most up-to-date details, see the [Business Plan page](https://www.ayrshare.com/business-plan-for-multiple-users/).

## 14-Day Free Trial

The Launch Plan includes a **14-day free trial** so you can integrate the multi-user APIs and validate the flow with real users before committing. The trial gives you the same APIs and profile capacity as a paid Launch Plan subscription.

## Upgrading to the Full Business Plan

Because the Launch Plan is capped at 10 User Profiles, you'll need to upgrade to the full [Business Plan](/multiple-users/business-plan-overview) once you're ready to onboard your 11th User Profile. You can upgrade at any time from your [account dashboard](https://app.ayrshare.com). Your existing User Profiles, JWT integration, and API keys carry over. No re-integration required.
