# MentionDrop

> Bounded high-signal mention monitoring for founders, marketers, PR teams, and indie hackers. Tracks brand, product, and competitor mentions from Reddit, Google News, search results, and selected public web results, then delivers AI-summarized alerts by email, Slack, or webhook.

MentionDrop is a self-serve alternative to Google Alerts for teams that need a usable workflow: surfaced mentions include an AI-generated summary, sentiment label, and suggested next action. It starts at $29/month without a sales call. Coverage and freshness vary by source; MentionDrop does not promise Firehose-style real-time web coverage by default.

The product monitors bounded high-signal sources such as Reddit, Google News, search results, and selected public web results. Ahrefs Firehose is optional and disabled by default. AI is used for summarization and relevance scoring, and Stripe powers billing.

- **Transparent pricing** — $29 and $59 flat tiers, no "contact sales" barrier
- **Multi-channel delivery** — email, Slack, or webhook out of the box; pick what fits your workflow
- **Noise filtering** — AI relevance scoring surfaces what matters and collapses routine mentions so digests stay readable
