Taplio is built for paid use — it offers a trial rather than a permanent free plan (check their site for current terms). If you want to grow on LinkedIn without a subscription, your realistic options are tools with genuine free tiers. InGrow's free plan is the most complete one we know of: 7 AI posts a month with the full pipeline included. Here's the honest picture, including what the free plans don't give you.
1. InGrow (free plan)
The free plan isn't a teaser: you get 7 AI posts per month for one niche with the complete pipeline — web research, on-voice drafting from your past posts, the approval queue, and scheduled auto-publishing via LinkedIn's official API. That's roughly two posts a week, forever, for $0.
Free: 7 posts/month, 1 niche. Pro ($3/mo founding price, or $29/year) removes the limits.

FAQ
It's a permanent free plan, not a trial. Every month you get 7 AI-generated posts for one niche, with web research, on-voice drafting, the approval queue and auto-publishing via LinkedIn's official API included. No credit card required.
Taplio has historically offered a free trial rather than a permanent free plan — check their site for current terms. If you specifically need $0/month long-term, a trial won't get you there.
The limits are the catch: 7 posts per month and one niche. There's no analytics suite, Chrome extension or team features on any InGrow plan. If 7 researched, on-voice, auto-published posts a month covers your needs, there's no other catch.
Generation pauses until the next month, or you can upgrade to Pro — $3/month at the founding price — for unlimited posts and unlimited niches. Nothing is deleted and nothing charges automatically.
Free or paid, the safety question is the same: how does it publish? InGrow uses LinkedIn's official API with permissions you explicitly grant — no browser bots, no password sharing — on the free plan and Pro alike.
InGrow researches your niche, writes on-voice posts and publishes them on schedule — free, no credit card.
