Awario alternative with AI-powered intent detection
Awario finds mentions. CatchIntent finds buyers. Our AI identifies purchase intent on Reddit, X, LinkedIn, Hacker News, and Bluesky — not just keyword matches.
Why teams switch from Awario
Real challenges that lead people to look for alternatives
Mentions aren't leads
Awario's Leads module finds keyword mentions, but can't distinguish between someone looking to buy and someone just talking about a topic.
Alert overload from broad monitoring
Monitoring across many platforms means more noise. Without AI intent filtering, you're buried in irrelevant mentions.
Pricing scales with mentions
Awario's pricing tiers are based on mention volume. More keywords means higher costs, regardless of lead quality.
No intent classification
Awario tracks sentiment (positive/negative) but can't identify buying intent, comparison shopping, or solution-seeking behavior.
Generic social listening focus
Built for brand monitoring and social listening, not specifically optimized for lead generation and sales outreach.
Manual lead qualification required
Even with the Leads module, you still need to manually review each mention to determine if it's worth pursuing.
