Alerts when your name turns up anywhere
Brand24 watches social networks, news, blogs, forums and podcasts for a keyword and tells you when it moves, with sentiment and reach attached. For a creator that is the difference between hearing about a video that mentioned you and not. The entry plan is priced for a business rather than for a person, which is the honest reason most individuals stop at the trial.
Our note
The API costing extra on every tier is the detail buried furthest down the page, and it changes the total for anybody planning to pipe mentions elsewhere. For a solo creator, a saved search and an alert do most of this for nothing.

Audience research done on Reddit
GummySearch reads Reddit for you: which subreddits your people are in, what they complain about, what they already pay for. It sorts posts into patterns rather than handing back a search results page, which is the difference between reading Reddit and researching it. The free plan is enough to find out whether your audience is there at all.
Our note
This is the cheapest honest audience research in the catalog, because the raw material is people talking without being asked. Use it before SparkToro when your market is consumer, and after it when your market is business.
Ratings are the average of reviews readers left. The facts are stated by each tool’s own listing and are not verified by CloutStack. How we make money.
