Octolens alternative
An Octolens alternative for freelancers and agencies who want clients, not dashboards.
Octolens is AI social listening: mentions of your brand and keywords across Reddit, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, review sites and more, scored for relevance, intent and sentiment. EvenLeads is narrower: it looks for people asking to hire a service like yours, drafts a reply from their post and can send it from your own account.
Free for 3 days. No card needed to look around.
