# 11 Best Kleo Alternatives in 2026
Canonical page: https://depost.ai/blog/kleo-alternatives
Eleven tools to move to from Kleo, what each one does beyond writing the post, and the question that matters most: does it know your brand, or start from nothing each time?
By [Atta](https://depost.ai/authors/atta), Depost AI. Published 2026-09-28, updated 2026-09-28.
**Short answer:** The best Kleo alternative is Depost AI. Kleo helps you write a post and design a graphic for it. Depost AI does the work around the post as well, and remembers your brand between sessions: one brand memory holding your positioning, a voice learned from your published posts, every post with its real numbers, the posts you saved, and your own documents. Every agent reads it before it writes, so the ideas come from what has already worked on your account, the graphic is designed with the post, and replies arrive drafted. Nothing publishes until you approve it.
Kleo helps you write a post. You open it, work on the draft, get a graphic, and close it. Everything around the post is still yours to do: deciding what to write about, checking what worked last month, replying to comments, and getting a client or a teammate to sign off.
That is fine until the day you want that work done for you as well. Eleven tools, then, starting with ours. What each one covers beyond writing the post, and what you would be giving up. If you are shopping the whole category rather than replacing one product, [the 15 best LinkedIn AI tools](https://depost.ai/blog/best-linkedin-ai-tools) is the wider list.
## Three questions that sort the list fast
Kleo began as a free Chrome extension for finding post ideas. LinkedIn asked for it to be removed in June 2025, and Kleo came back as a paid web app for writing posts and designing graphics, for one profile.
People start looking for an alternative when one of these three answers is no longer good enough.
**Who does the work?** A tool that helps you with each step is a different product from one that does the steps and hands you the result to approve. Kleo is the first kind. Depost AI is the second. You should know which one you are buying, because the daily experience is nothing alike.
**What does it remember?** Most tools learn your writing style and stop there. A tool that also holds your positioning, what you have already published and how it performed, the posts you saved, and the documents you care about will write a third draft that is better than its first. A tool that forgets will not.
**What happens after the draft?** Writing the post is one job. Knowing which posts worked, finding the conversations worth joining, replying to comments, and getting approval from a client are the rest of the week. Some tools cover them. Many stop at the draft.
The seven jobs a LinkedIn workflow has after the post is written. Features checked 13 August 2026, Oiti 12 September, Kleo 28 September.

## 1. Depost AI
**Best for:** founders, B2B teams, and agencies who want their LinkedIn week planned, written, and designed for them, and who approve everything before it goes out.
This is ours, so weigh it accordingly. The argument against Kleo is not a longer feature list. It is that the work arrives done, and that the tool already knows how you write and what has worked for you.
Connect LinkedIn and Depost AI builds the [brand memory](https://depost.ai/features/brand-memory) itself: your positioning, a voice learned from what you have published and refreshed weekly, every post with its real numbers, and the posts you save. Nothing has to be typed in by hand. Add documents and notes if you want them read, or do not. Every agent reads that memory before it writes anything, and a Sources panel shows you what each draft drew on.
### What a week looks like
All eleven tools write posts. They differ in what happens before and after the draft, and in who does that work.
Top row: what Depost AI does. Bottom row: what you do. Nothing goes out until you approve it.
**It reads your numbers.** Connect LinkedIn and your history syncs: impressions, engagement rate, follower growth, and every post you have published. The [Analyst](https://depost.ai/features/analytics) finds the posts that did better than your own average and works out why: the hook, the format, the topic, the time. Ask "what worked last month?" in chat and the answer comes with the posts attached.
**It plans from them.** Next week's ideas start from what worked on your account. The inspiration library and the posts you saved are a second source, not the first. A library of popular posts shows you what worked for someone else. This starts from what worked for you.
**It writes and designs.** Drafts arrive in your voice, each with its [infographic](https://depost.ai/features/infographics) designed in your colors and type and its [first comment](https://depost.ai/glossary/first-comment) already written. A voice note becomes a post. So does a bookmark, a case study, or a call transcript.
**It publishes when you approve.** Approve, edit, or request changes. Approved posts are [scheduled](https://depost.ai/features/scheduling) for a time suggested from when your audience actually engages, and go out through LinkedIn's official API. If a publish fails, it lands in your inbox with one-click retry.
**It keeps you in the conversation.** Targeted [feeds](https://depost.ai/features/engagement) around the prospects, niches, and topics you name, across LinkedIn, X, Reddit, Threads, and Facebook. Replies, DMs, and connection notes are drafted from what the person actually posted. Lead lists have stages, notes, and reminders. You press send, every time.
### What that does for the business
- **Each week builds on the last.** The plan starts from the posts that did better than your average the week before, so you do more of what works for your audience.
- **The hour after publishing gets shorter.** The replies are drafted when you sit down, so that hour is spent sending and editing, not writing from nothing.
- **Comments turn into leads.** Someone who comments twice goes on a lead list with a stage, a note, and a reminder to follow up.
- **The profile does its part.** Connect the account and your profile is scored section by section, so the people your posts send there find one that is finished.
- **Extra people are free.** On Team, you invite clients, assistants, and reviewers at no cost, with [review rounds, threaded comments, roles per brand, and an audit trail](https://depost.ai/features/approvals).
- **It works inside Claude and ChatGPT.** Every plan includes an [MCP server](https://depost.ai/mcp), with a separate key for each brand, so your AI assistant can read your analytics, add drafts to your calendar, and show what is waiting for review.
### What it costs as you grow
Solo is $59 a month for one LinkedIn account and includes every feature. Team is $99 a month for the first account and $59 for each one after that, up to 30. People are free on Team, so ten client brands cost $630 a month however many people work on them. Both plans have a 7-day free trial, and paying yearly gives you two months free. Details are on the [pricing page](https://depost.ai/pricing).
Kleo has one plan for one profile, and no free trial. Its pricing page lists support for more profiles as coming soon, so today there is no way to add a second brand or a client account.
### Moving from Kleo
- **Your history comes with you.** Your posts are stored on LinkedIn, not in Kleo. About fifteen minutes after you connect, Depost AI has drafted a brief with your positioning, topics, audience, and voice, based on your profile and your last fifty or more posts. Correct what is wrong and approve the rest. Your analytics are complete from the first day.
- **There is no voice to train.** The voice is learned from what you have published, so nothing has to be pasted in or taught again.
- **Your saved posts still count.** Save posts on LinkedIn or in Depost AI and the planner uses them, next to your own results.
- **Scheduled posts do not move.** They do not transfer between any two tools. Anything already scheduled in Kleo gets re-created, which is an afternoon, not a week.
**Who it is not for**
- Anyone who wants posts to go out without reading them first. Every post, reply, and message waits for your approval, on purpose.
- Anyone who schedules the same post to five networks. Depost AI publishes to LinkedIn only. Feeds and saved posts also cover X, Reddit, Threads, and Facebook.
[The full comparison with Kleo](https://depost.ai/alternatives/kleo) has the feature table side by side. The [free trial](https://depost.ai/pricing) is seven days on either plan, and the brief it drafts from your account in the first fifteen minutes is the fastest way to know whether it sounds like you.
## 2. Taplio
**What it is:** a long menu of features: writing help, a post library, carousels, a lead feed, analytics, and scheduling, each one a feature you open and operate.
**What it covers**
- Carousels, a lead feed, AI comments, analytics, and MCP.
**What to know**
- You operate it feature by feature. Nothing is planned or drafted for you.
- Auto-connect and DM sequences run under your name, whether or not you were watching.
- No approvals, and it bills by the seat, so every reviewer and client with a login is a line on the invoice.

## 10. AuthoredUp

## 11. ContentIn
**What it is:** a writing tool with a large template library. It learns your voice from the edits you make.
**What it covers**
- Templates, graphics, and MCP. Feeds and replies are partly covered.
**What to know**
- It learns from your edits, not from the posts you have already published, so expect more editing in the first weeks.
- Plans are based on usage, so a busy month can push you to a higher plan. Team features are limited.
[Depost AI vs ContentIn](https://depost.ai/alternatives/contentin).
## When the switch is worth it
When you want the week planned from your own results, not from templates and other people's posts. When a client, a teammate, or a second brand arrives and one profile is no longer enough. When you are tired of doing everything around the post yourself.
The one real cost is the scheduled posts, covered under moving from Kleo above. Everything else comes with you, because it lives on LinkedIn rather than in the tool.
## What the other lists get wrong
Three patterns are worth knowing when you read the rest of the results.
**Generic scheduler lists are not LinkedIn lists.** Several pages answer this search with Buffer, Hootsuite, and other social schedulers. Those are general social schedulers. None of them writes a LinkedIn post in your voice, reads your LinkedIn analytics, or drafts a reply.
**Many of them have the date wrong.** Several pages say LinkedIn had the Kleo extension removed in early 2026. The founder's own announcement is from June 2025. Check the date on anything you read about Kleo, because reviews from before the shutdown describe a different product.
**Vendor lists rank the vendor first.** Almost every page ranking for this search was written by somebody selling a Kleo alternative, and every one of them puts itself at number one. This one does too, and says so in the first line. The useful signal is not the ranking, it is whether the page shows what each tool actually covers, so you can check the claim against the table instead of taking it on trust.
## FAQ
### What is the best Kleo alternative?
Depost AI. It is the only one here that does the work around the post and remembers your brand between sessions, so the ideas come from what has already worked on your account, the graphic arrives with the post, and replies are drafted and waiting. Nothing publishes until you approve it. The other ten are listed above by what each one covers, so you can see what you would be giving up.
### Is there a free Kleo alternative?
Not a full one. Everything in this category charges, because the drafting costs money to run, and Kleo itself no longer has a free plan. What is free is the individual jobs: our [free LinkedIn tools](https://depost.ai/tools) cover [post ideas](https://depost.ai/tools/linkedin-content-idea-generator), [hooks](https://depost.ai/tools/linkedin-hook-generator), [post templates](https://depost.ai/tools/linkedin-post-templates), formatting, and post previews with no account.
### What happened to the Kleo Chrome extension?
It shut down in June 2025. Kleo's founder, Jake Ward, announced it on 20 June 2025 and said LinkedIn had told them to. Kleo came back as a paid web app. The subscription includes a new extension, but it is for saving posts you like, not the free tool people remember.
### What does brand memory mean, and why does it matter?
Brand memory is what a tool knows about you from one session to the next. Depost AI builds it from the LinkedIn account you connect: your positioning, your voice, every post with its numbers, the posts you save, and any documents you add. It reads all of that before it writes. Without it, you explain who you are every time you open the tool, and the drafts do not improve.
### Which Kleo alternative is safest for my account?
Ask any tool what it sends without you, and how it publishes. Tools that publish through LinkedIn's official API and need a human to approve each post, connection, and message sit in a different risk category from tools running auto-connect and DM sequences on your behalf. [What gets a LinkedIn account restricted](https://depost.ai/glossary/account-restriction) covers where the line is, and [how many comments a day is safe](https://depost.ai/blog/linkedin-comment-limit) covers the volume side.
### Kleo vs Taplio: which is better?
They are the same kind of tool: one you operate yourself. Kleo is drafting and graphics for one profile. Taplio is a longer menu with a lead feed and automated outreach. Neither plans the week from your own results or keeps a brand memory between sessions, which is the difference that decides this list.
