SnitchFeed alternative: social listening or a ranked buyer list
facts about SnitchFeed checked on 17 October 2026 from its own pages
SnitchFeed is a social listening tool for finding leads. You describe your ideal customer in plain language or enter your domain, and it finds conversations on LinkedIn, X, Reddit, Bluesky and Hacker News, then scores them with AI. If you want a SnitchFeed alternative that drafts a reply for every strong match, HearBuyers does that on X and Reddit. It scores each post from 0 to 100 for buying intent, and a person approves every reply.
This page covers what SnitchFeed does as of 17 October 2026, who it suits better, and how to move over. The facts come from SnitchFeed's home and pricing pages.

What SnitchFeed does
SnitchFeed describes itself as social listening for the agentic era. On 17 October 2026 it was live on LinkedIn, X, Reddit, Bluesky and Hacker News, and it listed GitHub, dev.to, YouTube and newsletters as coming.
AI scores and tags each result for relevance, intent and sentiment, and you can tighten queries with Boolean search. Job posts and promotions are dropped automatically, there are noise controls, and historical data loads when you sign up. Alerts go to Slack, Discord, email or a webhook, and a webhook can push leads into a CRM. The pages also list an AI agent called Snitch and an MCP server. They say nothing about reply drafting.
Plans on 17 October 2026, billed monthly (yearly billing saves 20%):
- Starter, $47 a month: 7,000 credits, 10 tracked terms or profiles, 3 listeners, 3 months of retention, 1 user. LinkedIn and X update hourly.
- Pro, $95 a month: 21,000 credits, 30 terms, 10 listeners, 6 months, 5 users, webhooks, CSV export and real-time updates.
- Scale, $399 a month: custom.
The free trial runs 7 days, needs no card and comes with 1,000 free credits.
Who SnitchFeed suits better
Pick SnitchFeed if your buyers talk on LinkedIn, or if you want Bluesky and Hacker News as well as X and Reddit. It also suits teams that want leads sent to a CRM by webhook, alerts in Discord, or historical data from day one. The plans run on credits, so you can add listeners and seats without switching tools.
What to look for in a replacement
- Where your buyers talk. Choose sources that match your market rather than the tool with the longest list.
- What happens after the match. A lead still needs a reply. Check whether the tool helps you write it.
- Credits versus matches. Credit models charge for scanning. Per-match billing charges for results.
- The evidence in the list. You should be able to see the sentence behind each score.
- A person approving replies.
Where HearBuyers fits, and where it doesn't
HearBuyers fits if your buyers ask their questions on X and Reddit and you want the reply started for you. Paste your company website and HearBuyers works out your product summary, buyer roles, the problems those buyers describe, search phrases, competitors and subreddits. You correct whatever it got wrong. It reads public X posts and replies and Reddit posts and comments, starting with the last seven days.
Every match at or above your threshold (70 by default) gets a drafted public reply, plus a DM draft on X. A person edits, approves, copies and posts it. Alerts come through Slack, a daily email digest and a team inbox with stages.
It's the wrong fit if you need other networks, Discord alerts, webhooks into a CRM or a historical archive. CRM logging is planned but not built. HearBuyers is free for 14 days with no card, then from $19 a month.
The honest case for staying
If your buyers are on LinkedIn or you rely on CRM routing, SnitchFeed covers sources and plumbing HearBuyers doesn't, so staying makes sense.
Moving over
- Export or write down your SnitchFeed listeners, terms and tracked profiles.
- Sign up for HearBuyers and paste your company website.
- Compare its suggested search phrases with your terms and add anything missing.
- Add competitors and the subreddits your buyers use.
- Set your threshold and connect Slack.
