What is Ghostwriter?
AI ghostwriter that writes, schedules and publishes LinkedIn and X posts in your voice Ghostwriter is a focused AI writing tool for people who know they should post on LinkedIn and X but never find the time.
Our verdict
Ghostwriter does one thing well - consistent LinkedIn and X posting in your voice - at a price that undercuts nearly everything in this category, with a free plan that actually publishes and unlimited seats on Pro.
Full review
Ghostwriter is a focused AI writing tool for people who know they should post on LinkedIn and X but never find the time. It learns your voice from style guidelines and sample writing, generates drafts on a schedule, and queues them for your review – you approve, it publishes. The loop is deliberately simple: wake up to fresh posts that read like you spent hours on them, pick the ones you like, move on.
The pricing structure is the most generous part. The free plan is usable rather than decorative: connect both platforms, get 3 AI drafts, save 5, and use the calendar with actual publishing. Pro at $20 a month raises that to 30 drafts a month with unlimited saved drafts, advance scheduling, voice and style customization, version control, video uploads, a personal AI copilot and – unusually – unlimited seats. An Agency tier adds 100 drafts a month,

An Agency tier adds 100 drafts a month, team collaboration, bulk creation and an admin panel across up to 10 client workspaces.
The caveats: it covers exactly two platforms, so multi-network teams will need something broader. The product is young and the site shows it – a template copy slip on the homepage references another product’s name, and the testimonials (including one attributed to a Pentagram art director) are vendor-supplied. There is no public company information, no free trial of Pro (the free plan is the trial), and analytics shown on the site are per-post engagement stats rather than a reporting suite.
My verdict: for a founder, operator or small agency whose entire game is LinkedIn plus X consistency, Ghostwriter is a sensible, well-priced pick – the free plan alone can run a light cadence. Anyone needing more networks, deep analytics or an established vendor should look up-market.
Who it's for
Best for
- Founders
- operators and small agencies who want a daily LinkedIn and X presence without writing every post themselves
- and teams who want client workspaces with an admin panel at agency pricing.
Not ideal for
- Teams publishing beyond LinkedIn and X
- buyers who need analytics and reporting depth
- and anyone who wants vendor transparency - there is no public company information.

Frequently asked questions
What is Ghostwriter?
Ghostwriter is an AI writing tool that learns your voice and creates LinkedIn and X posts for you. Drafts arrive on a schedule, you review and approve the ones you like, and it publishes them - so your accounts stay active without daily writing.
How much does Ghostwriter cost?
Three plans: Free at $0 (3 AI drafts, 5 saved drafts, 1 workspace, calendar and publishing), Pro at $20 per month (30 drafts a month, unlimited saved drafts, scheduling, voice customization, version control, copilot, video uploads and unlimited seats), and an Agency custom plan (100 drafts a month, team features, admin panel, up to 10 workspaces).
Is the free plan really free?
Yes. The free plan connects both LinkedIn and X, includes 3 AI-generated drafts, 5 saved drafts and publishing via the calendar. No credit card is required per the vendor.
Which platforms does it support?
LinkedIn and X (Twitter) only. It is deliberately focused on those two networks.
How many seats are included?
Pro includes unlimited seats per the vendor's pricing page. The Agency plan adds team collaboration and an admin panel across up to 10 client workspaces.
Does Ghostwriter publish automatically?
Drafts are generated for your review first. You approve what goes out, and approved posts publish on your schedule. Nothing posts without your pick.
