COMPARISON

Mentionr vs F5Bot

F5Bot is free, has run for nine years and sends hundreds of thousands of alerts a day. It is the right answer for one keyword and one person. We are what you move to when the email volume becomes the problem.

The short version

  • Pick Mentionr if the alerts have become a second inbox and you need scoring, dedupe, analytics and a team.
  • Pick F5Bot if you track one keyword, you are one person, and an email per match is exactly what you want.
  • Both are fine together — plenty of people keep F5Bot on a personal keyword and run Mentionr on the brand.

Their strength

Where F5Bot is the better choice

F5Bot is genuinely free, genuinely reliable, and takes two minutes to set up. Nine years of uptime is a real achievement and nobody in this category should pretend otherwise. If you have one keyword and you are happy reading every match, F5Bot is the correct tool and you should keep using it.

There is nothing to import — F5Bot holds a keyword list, not a corpus. Paste the same keywords into onboarding and our backfill fills in the history F5Bot never kept.

Questions

Is F5Bot really free?
Yes, genuinely and with no catch we are aware of. We would rather say that than pretend otherwise.
What do I actually get for $29 that F5Bot does not give me?
Sentiment and intent on every match, deduplication, relevance scoring, analytics, Slack and Discord delivery, an API, team seats and reply drafts.
Can I run both?
Yes, and plenty of people do.
Do you cover comments like F5Bot does?
Yes. Comment coverage is table stakes and neither of us treats it as a premium feature.
