Ayrshare limits free trial to Launch plan only, others billed instantly
What happened
Between the Jul 20, 2026 and Jul 27, 2026 captures of Ayrshare's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Pricing page clarified that only the Launch plan carries the 28-day free trial; Premium, Business, and Enterprise are now explicitly stated to be billed immediately at signup with no trial. Pulse files it as a packaging change (trial change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Aug 17, 2026) lists Business at $2.99, Premium at $129, Launch at $249, Max Pack at $300 and Ads (Facebook Boosted) at $100.
It lands 7 days after Ayrshare's previous change, "Ayrshare quietly guts trial: free tier now Launch plan, not full Business access" (Jul 20, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Ayrshare caps Business plan at 300 profiles, adds historical content access & 24/7 support" (Jul 6, 2026), "Ayrshare: Launch plan free trial extended from 14 to 28 days" (Jul 2, 2026) and "Ayrshare doubles free trial to 28 days for MVPs and beta users" (Jun 1, 2026). Ayrshare has been tracked since 2026-02-26.
In the same window Buffer, Hootsuite, Sproutsocial, Later and Coschedule also changed their Marketing & Content pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
