Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Determ

  • There is no print media monitoring, so any organisation with a press cuttings obligation or a board that still reads newspaper coverage has to buy a second service alongside it.
  • Mention allowances are the real constraint and a single viral news cycle can exhaust a 1,000-mention monthly quota in days, after which you either upgrade mid-contract or lose visibility exactly when you need it most.
  • Long-range historical reporting is thin, so year-on-year share of voice analysis and multi-year campaign retrospectives are awkward compared with the larger monitoring suites.
  • Facebook coverage is restricted and LinkedIn profiles cannot be monitored, limits imposed by those platforms but which still leave gaps in any brand where the conversation happens there.
  • It is a monitoring tool rather than a PR suite, with no media database, no journalist contact list and no pitching workflow, so agencies replacing Cision or Muck Rack will find half the job undone.

Midjourney

  • Subscription tiers as captured 29 December 2023 ranged from $10/month (3.3 Fast GPU hours) to $120/month (60 Fast GPU hours), with extra GPU time at $4/hour, and companies earning over $1,000,000/year in gross revenue were required to use the Pro plan
