ListBrew finds 'best of', comparison and alternatives articles that name your competitors but not you, checks which ones AI answers cite and looks up the editors. Its outreach, pitch writer and email rotation are still listed as coming soon, the free credits are one-time, and Gemini and Perplexity need the $99 plan. - **Value for money: C.** Solo is $49 a month for 100 credits, the middle of this category. Gemini and Perplexity citations need Pro at $99, and credits are spent per keyword, engine, prompt and contact. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A free plan with 50 credits and every feature, no card needed. The credits are one-time and don't renew, so in practice it's a trial. - **Features: C.** Listicle discovery, AI citation checks, Google rank and domain data, an editor finder through Hunter.io and Apollo, and a check for existing mentions. It does listicle prospecting fully, but that's a smaller job, and outreach is still coming soon. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. You enter keywords and rivals and spend credits per search, engine and contact, which takes some working out. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with Hunter and Apollo for contact data and CSV export. No API or built-in sending on record. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from ListBrew's own pages on 23 October 2026.

What surrounds it you could not. The 1 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 25 of the 50 other link building tools grade higher. It costs $588 a year. - You could make: Link outreach: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. ## Works with Hunter, Apollo **Tags:** Link outreach, AI search visibility ## Alternatives - [BuzzStream](https://toolgpa.com/tools/buzzstream): Outreach CRM for link building and digital PR.
