The index

What is SocialAtoZ?

SocialAtoZ is an independent index of AI and business software. Every product is recorded on the same fields, in the same order, whether it leads its category or sits tenth on the list, so two products are read against each other and not against their own marketing.

Listings are not paid placements. A vendor cannot buy a position, and a product is listed because its record is complete enough to compare.

How to compare software on SocialAtoZ

To compare software on SocialAtoZ, find the category, filter on the shared fields, and put the last two products side by side.

    Browse all categories
  2. Filter on the shared fields

3 rules

Why trust SocialAtoZ software data?

SocialAtoZ software data can be checked against each vendor's own site, because three rules decide what gets recorded.

  • One record shape

    Price, plans, deployment, free trial and audience come from one record, so a listing and a comparison table never disagree about the same product.

  • Prices from the pricing page

    Plan prices are taken from each vendor's own pricing page. A number that appears only in marketing copy on a homepage is not recorded.

  • Ranking by completeness

    Category listings sort on how complete a record is, so the products that compare on every field come first.
