The listed annual-billing prices are $29 a month for Starter, $89 a month for Pro and $249 a month for Enterprise. Starter covers three topics and one team member; Pro allows 15 topics and 10 team members; Enterprise allows 100 topics and unlimited team members. Pro and Enterprise include CSV mention export, while Enterprise includes API access and an account manager. A seven-day trial offers Starter access, requires no credit card and allows up to three alerts and 30,000 mentions. Awario was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in Nicosia, Cyprus.

Syften monitors public conversations for signs of buying intent, such as people asking for recommendations, comparing competitors, considering a switch, or describing a problem a product might solve. Alerts link to the person and discussion, so teams can review the original context rather than depend on an unexplained account score. It can surface competitor complaints, migration discussions, pricing objections, feature and category questions, and research that names products. Sources include public websites and communities such as Reddit, Hacker News, X/Twitter, Bluesky, Slack communities, Discourse, Stack Exchange, YouTube, GitHub, podcasts, blogs, forums, newsletters, and Product Hunt. Users can set keyword filters and optional AI acceptance rules; alerts can go to Slack, email, RSS, API, or webhooks. Entry costs $29.95 a month, billed monthly, and includes three community filters, 100 community results per day, one web filter, five web results per day, and a seven-day archive search. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial requires no credit card. Standard and Syften PRO include API access; PRO also lists MCP support. Syften routes public conversations, but does not enrich contact records or identify every mention as a lead.
