Hootsuite: adds a Professional tier, drops the 25% skip-trial discount
What happened
Between the Jun 22, 2026 and Jun 29, 2026 captures of Hootsuite's pricing page, Pulse recorded 3 changes: Hootsuite restructured its plans from three to four, inserting a new Professional tier between Standard and Advanced, rebranded the comparison as 'Hootsuite Social OS' with a Wisdom AI teammate on every plan, moved to an explicit 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and removed the 'Skip trial, get 25% off' discount. In detail: Pricing restructured from three plans to four: a new Professional tier (marked Most popular) was added between Standard and Advanced, alongside Enterprise (Custom). The "Skip trial, get 25% off" discount previously offered on Standard and Advanced was removed; Hootsuite rebranded its plan comparison as "Hootsuite Social OS" and added Wisdom, an AI teammate: "Every plan runs on Wisdom, your AI teammate — one AI brain in every plan that drafts, recommends, and analyzes."; Trial offer changed: the generic "Free trial" CTA became "Free 14-day trial", and the page now advertises "No credit card required", "Cancel anytime" and "No commitment". Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change, feature added, trial change) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Jul 6, 2026) lists Standard at $99 and Advanced at $249.
Hootsuite's previous recorded change was "Hootsuite: New Professional plan added, trial terms overhauled" (Jul 3, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Hootsuite reveals trial posting limits hidden behind asterisks" (Jun 1, 2026), "Hootsuite quietly removes trial account restrictions from pricing page" (May 18, 2026) and "Hootsuite caps trial posting at 10–20 daily, blocks bulk uploads" (May 11, 2026). Hootsuite has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
