Choose Leadhoot if
You want the posts where someone is asking to buy, scored and delivered within a minute, without connecting your accounts or automating replies. Its AI reads sentiment, not buying intent, so you still sort buyers from noise yourself, and X keywords are limited on the cheaper plans.

A cheap way to watch many platforms for a word. For buyers rather than mentions, intent scoring does the sorting for you.
