F5Bot is great at free keyword pings. Soonar is built for teams that want to know which of those mentions is actually a buyer — with intent scoring, a one-line reason it's a lead, and a reply draft you can paste.
F5Bot tells you a keyword appeared. Soonar tells you whether it's worth your time — and helps you reply.
Surface buyer intent, competitor pain, and workflow problems — ranked — instead of reading every raw alert manually.
Soonar focuses on Reddit posts and comments, then ranks which matches are actually worth your time.
Get a context-aware draft and edit it before posting from your own account — no blank-page moment after the alert.
Opportunities, Visibility Plays, and Mentions are separated, so each count means something you can trust.
The alert is only the first step. Soonar focuses on the work that starts after a keyword match appears.
A keyword match can be a buyer, a random mention, or noise. Soonar ranks the thread by buyer intent before asking you to read it.
Useful buying intent often appears inside active comment threads, not just top-level posts. Soonar treats comments as first-class signals.
Soonar gives you the reason, the context, and a draft you edit before posting, so the alert turns into action instead of another inbox.
The difference isn't the alert — it's the workflow after a match is found.
