Best CompetitorTrack alternatives in 2026 (free and paid)

Reasons to look past CompetitorTrack: the free plan covers only 1 competitor with a live 7-day email window, AI Visibility recommendations and the full email archive need Pro at $10 per competitor per month, it only tracks public opt-in campaigns you subscribe an address to, and portfolios of 10+ competitors need a custom quote.

Perplexity searches the web with cited sources and has a free tier; its listed starting price is Education Pro (consumer, verified students/faculty) at $10 per user per month. It answers one-off research questions rather than collecting emails. Notion AI starts at Plus, $12 per member per month, with a free tier, and is a place to keep competitor notes and research. Zapier, from Professional at $19.99 per month for 750 tasks and with a free plan, can route alerts and data between apps if you build the monitoring yourself.
