Loomly

Social media calendar with approvals for brands and agencies

Loomly is a social media management tool for Agencies and Small businesses, offered as paid ($65/mo). Founded in United States in 2015.

About Loomly

Loomly is a social media management platform built around a shared content calendar and approval workflow. It started in 2015, was acquired in 2021 by Traject, a marketing software group backed by ASG, and in January 2025 became part of Bending Spoons, the Milan-based company that also owns Evernote and WeTransfer. Its core job is helping marketing teams and agencies plan, approve, publish and report on social posts for one or many brands.

Each brand gets its own calendar with platform-specific post previews, drag-and-drop scheduling, post templates, hashtag and UTM tools and a built-in link shortener. Approval workflows, roles, comments, version history and shareable post mockups support client sign-off. A unified inbox handles comments, mentions and messages, and analytics include scheduled reports. Plans differ mainly by users, social accounts, AI Assistant usage, social listening and custom branding.

Loomly fits agencies and in-house teams whose bottleneck is review and approval rather than raw publishing volume. It is pricier than Buffer for small accounts, social listening is limited to a few searches a month, and the features page does not list X among its publishing integrations. Hootsuite and Sprout Social offer deeper listening and analytics, Buffer is cheaper for simple scheduling, and Planable has a more visual approval flow.

Since Bending Spoons took over, pricing has been simplified into Starter, Beyond and Enterprise. Yearly plans save 25% but cannot be cancelled early, and nonprofits get a 50% lifetime discount.
