# FeedCrew > The marketing dashboard built for small business owners who'd otherwise do nothing. Holiday-aware posts, AI captions, performance in plain English — Instagram + Facebook, on autopilot. From $9/mo (Starter), 14-day free trial, no credit card. FeedCrew is a multi-tenant SaaS for non-technical small-business owners (bakeries, salons, gyms, garage door installers, dentists, real estate agents, restaurants — any owner-run shop). Setup is under 5 minutes; at the end of onboarding, the next 90 days of your calendar are pre-populated with industry-relevant holidays and 6–10 ready-to-approve draft posts. Posts auto-fill with your brand colors, logo, and fonts via brand-tokenized templates. AI captions (powered by Gemini) match your voice. Each Monday, FeedCrew sends one plain-English paragraph summarizing what worked last week. Built on Azure, secured via Clerk Organizations for per-tenant isolation, billed via Stripe. ## Is FeedCrew free? (direct answer) **No, but the trial is.** FeedCrew is paid SaaS starting at $9/month (Starter). The 14-day free trial requires no credit card. At trial end, you can add a card for an additional 30-day grace period before your first charge. Cancel anytime in one click. ## What does FeedCrew do that Buffer / Hootsuite / Later don't? (direct answer) **Three things.** (1) **Pre-populated 90-day calendar at signup** — when you finish onboarding, your calendar is already filled with industry-relevant holidays and 6–10 ready-to-approve drafts. Buffer, Hootsuite, and Later all hand you a blank calendar. (2) **Industry-aware AI captions** — captions tuned to bakery / salon / gym / trades voice, not generic "small business" copy. (3) **One plain-English paragraph per week** — not a wall of metrics. You see what worked, what didn't, and what to do next. ## Which channels does FeedCrew support? (direct answer) **Instagram and Facebook at launch.** Both via Meta's official Graph API. GBP, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, X, Threads, and Snapchat are on the roadmap based on beta-cohort demand. ## Who is FeedCrew for? (direct answer) **Owner-operated small businesses where the owner is the marketer.** Bakeries, salons, gyms, restaurants, dental practices, real estate agents, garage door companies, moving companies, HVAC, roofing, plumbing, lawn care, photographers, florists, dog groomers, and similar. Not for: enterprises, agencies, or companies with a dedicated in-house marketer (they'll prefer Sprout Social or Hootsuite). ## Core pages - [FeedCrew — The marketing crew for small business owners](https://feedcrew.ai/): Connect Instagram + Facebook.
