Scala vs ClickGrow: credits or a fixed plan

Updated · Written by the Scala team

ClickGrow and Scala both use AI to market a small business, but they price and work differently. ClickGrow sells credits: Pro starts at $99 a month for 10,000 credits that pay for posts, images, video, website scans, automations and reports, with unlimited businesses and users; Concierge adds a team that helps you set up (ClickGrow billing help). Scala is a fixed plan for one business: 3, 5 or 7 designed posts a week, emails to your customers, a monthly website and Google check and a Monday report, from $19 a month. If you run several businesses or an agency, ClickGrow fits. If you run one local business and want a fixed price, Scala fits better.

We make Scala, so read this with that in mind. ClickGrow facts come from ClickGrow's help center, checked on 12 November 2026.
