What is Brand24?
Brand24 is an AI social listening and media monitoring platform that tracks public mentions of your brand, product, or competitors in real time across social, news, blogs, forums, podcasts, video and review sites, with sentiment analysis and an AI Brand Assistant. Founded in Poland (Wroclaw) in 2011 and publicly listed (Warsaw, ticker B24), it is positioned as the affordable, easy alternative to enterprise tools like Brandwatch. Ratings are strong (G2 4.6, Capterra 4.7). It is not cheap: plans run from Individual ($199/mo annual) to Pro ($399) and Business ($599), with Enterprise from $1,499. Limited historical data (~1 year) and English-leaning sentiment are the main trade-offs.
