Metricool vs ONYX for BlueSky Scheduling and Analytics

Metricool is a broader social media planning and analytics tool that supports BlueSky scheduling, analytics, and multi-channel reporting. ONYX is built specifically around BlueSky scheduling, AI Voice, thread planning, and creator workflows.

Choose Metricool for multi-channel planning

Metricool can be useful when you want one calendar for several platforms, cross-network planning, broad analytics, competitor tracking, reports, and a larger social media operations surface.

Choose ONYX for BlueSky focus

ONYX is stronger when your priority is a simpler BlueSky queue: generate drafts with AI Voice, schedule posts and threads, use timing tools, track the posting rhythm, and review what worked without setting up a full multi-network analytics suite.

The value split is straightforward. Metricool is a broader planning and analytics platform. ONYX Pro is $7/mo for serious single-account BlueSky publishing, and ONYX Studio is $19/mo when multiple BlueSky accounts and higher-volume planning matter.

Start with the workflow you actually need

A creator who only cares about BlueSky does not always need a larger planning suite. A focused scheduler can be faster because there is less setup, fewer unrelated channels, and fewer decisions before the approved post goes live.
