Where LeadPerch is different

• Built for finding customers, not tracking brand mentions: every post gets an AI buying-intent score (0–100) with a one-line reason.
• Drafted, disclosed replies that you edit and post yourself. LeadPerch never posts, DMs or automates accounts for you.
• Reddit, Hacker News and X/Twitter (X on paid plans, within a monthly allowance).
• Daily email digest, Slack alerts, mark-contacted and CSV export.
• Free plan; Pro $29/mo (25 keywords) and Agency $79/mo (100 keywords).

Which should you use?

Choose Octolens if you need broad multi-platform listening (LinkedIn, YouTube, GitHub, reviews), high mention volumes or an API. Choose LeadPerch if Reddit, HN and X cover your buyers and you want a ranked lead feed at $29/mo.
