Inkie vs Blaze: Which is better for your social media?

Blaze has been gaining attention as an AI-powered content tool that promises to generate posts, blogs, and more in seconds. For some, that speed is appealing. But when I started looking into how it compares with Inkie, I noticed some consistent themes in the reviews - especially around pricing and support - that small business owners might want to know about.


Blaze: What it does well

  • Fast content generation: Blaze can create social posts, blogs, and emails at speed.

  • Brand voice options: It can model your tone and style to try and keep content consistent.

  • Multi-platform scheduling: You can push content out across channels in one place.

  • Repurposing tools: One piece of content can be adapted into other formats.

  • Templates: Structured prompts and workflows make it easy to get started.


Where Blaze falls short

  • Customer support: On Trustpilot, many users report that even at $99/month, they received little or no support. Some struggled to get responses or cancel their plan. (Trustpilot reviews)

  • Strategy gap: The tool generates content, but reviews suggest it can feel random or disconnected without a structured monthly plan.

  • Website scraping risk: Blaze pulls information from your existing site, so if your web copy isn’t exactly how you want to be seen, that’s what it reflects.

  • Value for money: At $99/month, it’s more expensive than many other schedulers — and without reliable support included, small businesses may feel short-changed.


Inkie: Where it fits

  • Structured onboarding: Inkie doesn’t scrape your website. Instead, it learns your brand through onboarding questions and stores everything in a database. That means your content reflects how you want to be seen, not old web copy.

  • Monthly content plan: Posts aren’t random — Inkie creates a calendar that aligns with your goals, keeping themes consistent.

  • Support included: Free onboarding is part of the package, and help is available when you need it.

  • Daily social + blog + newsletter: Content spans multiple formats, not just social snippets.

  • Automation across platforms: Posts are created and scheduled for Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Bluesky, with TikTok and Pinterest on the way.


Who each tool suits best

Blaze

  • Works if you want quick content drafts and you’re confident editing and steering them yourself.

  • Best if your website copy is already strong, since that’s often where it draws from.

  • Pricing: $99/month (USD), paid monthly.

Inkie

  • Designed for small business owners who want tailored, consistent content without the admin.

  • Best if you want more than random posts — a structured monthly plan with your voice built in.

  • Pricing: Free trial available, then £39/month for daily posts, a weekly blog, and a fortnightly newsletter.
