# Syften pricing in 2026: what every plan costs, what each one leaves out, and why Redwatcher is the better alternative for Reddit

Canonical: https://redwatcher.com/syften-pricing

**In short**

**Syften pricing has three plans with a listed price, plus a Tailor made plan: Entry at $29.95 a
month for three community filters and 100 community results a day, Standard at $49.95 with AI
filtering, Slack and the API, and PRO at $119.95 with webhooks and MCP. Redwatcher watches Reddit
for 25 keywords at $29 a month, every match scored.**

Syften's prices were read from syften.com/pricing on 20 September 2026.

Syften is a keyword alert tool for Reddit, Hacker News, forums and the public web that charges by
plan, and each plan sets how many filters you can run and how many results a day it sends. A
filter is a search query for the mentions you want to track.

[Redwatcher](/) is a Reddit monitoring tool. Tracks keywords, brand mentions and competitors across
the subreddits you choose, scores every match for relevance, and alerts by email, Slack, Telegram or
webhook around the clock. From $29/month per project.

[Start free](https://app.redwatcher.com/signup) Seven days, no card. From $29 a month after.

**How we checked**

**Read off Syften's own pricing page on 20 September 2026.**
[syften.com/pricing](https://syften.com/pricing): the three plan cards, the notes behind their
info marks, and the FAQ under them. The page has no billing switch and no price in its structured
data, so the monthly prices are the ones on the cards. We have not used a paid Syften plan. We
took the screenshot of the cards below from that page on 20 September 2026.

## How much does Syften cost?

Syften costs $29.95 a month for Entry, $49.95 for Standard and $119.95 for Syften PRO, billed
monthly, with a Tailor made plan priced on request. Read from
[syften.com/pricing](https://syften.com/pricing) on 20 September 2026.

## Why Redwatcher is the better alternative to Syften

1. **Every match is scored on the $29 plan.** Syften's $29.95 card lists no AI filtering.
   Redwatcher scores every post
   and comment from 0 to 100 before it is sent, on the $29 plan and every plan above it, and only
   what scores above the bar you set reaches you.
2. **A score with the reason, and a correction that becomes a rule.** Syften's pricing page
   describes its AI filtering as filtering noisy matches before they reach your alerts, and says
   nothing about a score or a reason. Redwatcher writes the reason under every thread: *"A buying decision in progress, with the
   requirements and the budget stated"* scores 94. When a score is wrong, you say what was wrong
   and it becomes a rule that every later match is judged against.
3. **Plans go by keywords and subreddits, not by results a day.** Syften's daily cap, 100
   community results a day on the $29.95 plan, is listed per plan and covers every community at
   once, so Reddit shares it with Hacker News, forums, podcasts and the rest. Redwatcher's plans
   are 25, 50 or 100 keywords with the same number of named subreddits.
4. **Email, Slack, Telegram and a signed webhook on every plan.** On Syften, Slack starts at
   $49.95 and webhooks at $119.95, and neither is on the $29.95 card. On Redwatcher all four are
   on the $29 plan, and Slack and Telegram install in one click.
5. **A client or a second brand is its own project.** Syften's FAQ says an agency runs every
   customer from one account, with the filters tagged per customer, so every client shares the
   plan's filters and its daily results. On Redwatcher each project has its own keywords,
   subreddits, rules and alert channels, and you pick a plan for each one.

![The Redwatcher inbox for a Klaviyo project: a thread scored 94, a competitor comparison scored 88, and a job post scored 24 and skipped, each with the reasons underneath](img/product-inbox.webp "**The Redwatcher inbox**, captured 18 September 2026. Every thread shows its score, the word that matched is highlighted in the title, and the reasons are underneath. Anything under your bar is not sent, and you can still read it.")

![A thread scored 94 being corrected to 38, and the correction saved as a scoring rule](img/product-scoring.webp "**Tell it what was wrong, and it becomes a rule.** Captured 20 September 2026. Redwatcher writes the correction into your scoring rules, re-scores the thread, and judges every later match against it.")

![Redwatcher's setup, reading a website and proposing the subreddits, keywords and competitors to watch](img/product-setup.webp "**Setup starts from your website.** Captured 20 September 2026. Redwatcher reads it and proposes the subreddits, the keywords, your competitors and the spellings people use, and checks each subreddit against Reddit as you accept it.")

![Redwatcher's alert destinations: a Slack message, a Telegram message and a signed webhook payload](img/product-alerts.webp "**Email, Slack, Telegram and a signed webhook, on every plan.** Captured 20 September 2026. Slack and Telegram install in one click, and every channel has a test button that sends a real message.")

The two larger plans are $49 a month for 50 keywords and subreddits and $89 for 100, with every
feature on every plan and unlimited team members. Redwatcher watches Reddit only and has no plan
at $0. Read from [syften.com/pricing](https://syften.com/pricing) and

## What does each Syften plan include?

Every Syften plan includes archive search, which is on every card, and email alerts, which its
FAQ mentions without naming a plan. The plans differ on AI filtering, Slack, the API, webhooks, MCP
and the add-ons. Read from
[syften.com/pricing](https://syften.com/pricing) on 20 September 2026.

| | Entry | Standard | Syften PRO |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Email alerts | yes | yes | yes |
| Slack | not listed | yes | yes |
| AI filtering | not listed | yes | yes |
| API access | not listed | yes | yes |
| Webhooks | not listed | not listed | yes |
| MCP | not listed | not listed | yes |
| X/Twitter monitoring | not listed | paid add-on, price not on the page | paid add-on, price not on the page |
| YouTube monitoring | not listed | paid add-on, price not on the page | paid add-on, price not on the page |

## What does Syften cost if you only need Reddit?

$49.95 a month, if you want a match judged before it reaches you, because that is the cheapest
Syften plan with AI filtering. On the $29.95 plan, if you want your brand, your competitors and a
problem phrase kept as separate alerts, that is three filters, and three is all the plan gives
you, shared across every community Syften watches. Read

## Which one to pick

Redwatcher, if Reddit is where your customers talk. [The Syften alternative

## How do you move from Syften to Redwatcher?

Copy the terms out of each Syften filter and paste them into Redwatcher as keywords, one term to a
line. Give it your website address and it proposes the subreddits to watch, then set the score you
want to be alerted above and pick email, Slack, Telegram or a webhook. Run both for the week of the
trial and compare what each one sends before Syften's next bill.
