Mention Pricing 2026: $599 a Month Company Plan

Short answer: Mention's only plan sold to new customers is the Company plan, and Mention's own help center states it "starts at $599 per month, on an annual contract". That buys 5 alerts, 50,000 mentions a month and unlimited users. The public pricing page shows no figure at all, and the cheaper Solo, Pro and Pro Plus tiers were withdrawn from new customers in July 2025, so $599 a month is now the floor rather than a mid-tier option.

Last updated September 2026. Plan limits and the $599 figure were read from Mention's own support documentation on September 4, 2026, and the pricing page and its deprecation notice were read from mention.com the same day. Competitor prices come from each vendor's own pricing page, checked during August and September 2026.

What Mention costs in 2026

The gap between those two facts is the whole story. If you last looked at Mention a couple of years ago, you probably remember it as one of the affordable options, because Solo and Pro were the tiers most people bought. Those are gone for anyone signing today. The entry point is now an annual commitment at $599 a month, which is $7,188 a year.

Why the pricing page does not show a price

Mention's pricing page renders the Company plan card with the words "Starting at $" and no number after it, and both buttons read "Get a demo" and "Request a demo". The figure exists, it just is not on the page a buyer lands on. It sits in the support documentation, where far fewer people look.

That matters for a practical reason. A quote-gated vendor is not automatically expensive, but it does mean you cannot compare it in an afternoon, and it means the number you are eventually given is the number that vendor thinks you will pay. Knowing the published floor before the call is worth real money, which is why it is worth writing down: $599 a month, annual contract, per Mention's own documentation.

What changed, and why it should change your shortlist

Two things happened in quick succession. First, Agorapulse acquired Mention in 2025, in a deal reported at EUR 25 million. Second, Mention began removing the parts of its product that overlapped with its new owner. Its FAQ states plainly: "As part of our ongoing efforts to streamline our services and focus on delivering the best user experience, we have decided to progressively deprecate the 'Publish' and 'Respond' features in Mention." It then adds: "We recommend using Agorapulse for all your publishing and responding requirements."

Read that as a buyer rather than as a reader. Mention is being narrowed into a monitoring and listening product, and the publishing and inbox features some teams bought it for are on the way out. If you are evaluating Mention as an all-in-one, you are evaluating a product that its owner has said will not stay all-in-one. If you are evaluating it purely as a listening tool, that narrowing is arguably a good thing, but it should be priced against other listening tools rather than against suites.

Is $599 a month competitive?

Against the published half of this category, it sits near the top rather than the middle.

Two honest observations from that table. Mention is roughly ten times the entry price of the cheapest tools that publish a number, and it costs the same per month as Brand24's Business tier, which comes with 25 keywords and 100,000 mentions. But Mention's unlimited users at a flat price is a real advantage that most of the cheaper list does not match, and it is the reason some teams keep it after the price rise.

Where Mention is genuinely the right buy

It is worth saying clearly, because most pricing articles will not. If you need a large mention quota, broad source coverage that includes review platforms, and access for a whole company without counting logins, Mention's shape fits that well. Fifty thousand mentions a month is a serious quota, and unlimited users on a flat plan means the people who need visibility get it without a budget conversation each time.

That last point is the part worth generalizing. Per-seat billing is the quiet multiplier in this category, and it is why we keep a running comparison of monitoring tools with no per-seat pricing, including the arithmetic for what a five-person team actually pays on each model. Mention belongs on the flat-rate side of that list. It is simply the expensive end of it.

Where Mention is the wrong buy is more specific. If you are buying for early warning rather than reporting volume, the questions that decide it are how often the tool collects and how it decides an alert is worth sending. Five alerts is a small allowance if you want to watch your brand, your products, your executives and two competitors separately, and additional alerts are a purchase rather than an included upgrade.

Mention pricing questions buyers actually ask

How much does Mention cost per month?

Mention's Company plan starts at $599 per month on an annual contract, according to Mention's own support documentation. That includes 5 alerts, 50,000 mentions a month and unlimited users, with extra alerts and extra mention quota available as paid add-ons. No figure appears on the public pricing page, which shows "Starting at $" with the number omitted and routes both buttons to a demo request.

Does Mention still have a cheap plan?

No. Solo, Pro and Pro Plus were withdrawn from new customers in July 2025, and Company Lite is also legacy. Existing customers on those plans may still be on them, but a team signing up today is quoted from the Company plan. If you are looking for a low published entry price in this category, Mentionlytics from $49, EyeOut at $59 and Awario from EUR 29 are the tools that still publish one.

Is Mention owned by Agorapulse?

Yes. Agorapulse acquired Mention in 2025, in a deal reported at EUR 25 million, and the two products are now sold by the same company. Mention's demo requests route to an Agorapulse-hosted page, and Mention's own FAQ recommends Agorapulse for publishing and responding. If you are comparing both, it is worth reading Agorapulse's published plans alongside this, because they are two products from one vendor rather than two independent options.

Is Mention discontinuing features?

Yes, the Publish and Respond features specifically. Mention's FAQ states it has "decided to progressively deprecate the 'Publish' and 'Respond' features in Mention" and recommends Agorapulse for those jobs instead. Monitoring and listening are not affected, so the practical effect is that Mention is becoming a narrower listening product rather than an all-in-one, which changes what you should compare it against.

What is the best Mention alternative at a lower price?

It depends on which part of Mention you are replacing. For unlimited team access on a flat plan with real-time collection, EyeOut is $59 a month billed yearly with seats included on every tier and a graded crisis radar. For a large mention quota at a mid price, Brand24 Team is $299 a month. We keep a fuller side-by-side on our Mention alternative page, including where Mention still wins.

Is Mention's $599 plan billed monthly or annually?

Annually. Mention's documentation describes the Company plan as starting at $599 per month on an annual contract, so the commitment is a year even though the price is quoted monthly. That works out at $7,188 for the first year at the floor price, before any extra alerts or mention quota. Budget for the annual figure, because that is the number that goes to whoever approves it.

Before you sign the annual contract

An annual commitment changes what due diligence is worth doing. Three things are worth getting in writing before the contract goes out for signature, and none of them are on any vendor's pricing page.

Ask how often the tool collects for your sources, in hours. Most vendors in this category publish nothing at all on refresh interval, and it is the specification most likely to make a monitoring purchase useless: a twelve hour cycle is fine for a quarterly report and worthless for a Friday afternoon that goes wrong. Ask what happens when you exceed the mention quota, because some vendors stop collecting, which means a spike is exactly when you go blind. And if you are buying at this price point, the purchase will usually route through a security review, so it is worth running the vendor risk assessment early rather than discovering a questionnaire is blocking the signature two weeks later.

The wider point about this category is that the price is rarely the hard part. Nine vendors publish a number and roughly the same number publish nothing, and the ones that publish a number often meter something that decides your bill more than the plan name does. If early warning is the reason you are buying at all, compare on collection interval and alert quality first, and treat the monthly figure as the second question. That is the same logic behind our approach to crisis monitoring, where the speed of the data underneath an alert matters more than what the alert feature is called.
