Perigon Media Monitoring review

Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Perigon Media Monitoring tracks brand and executive mentions across news, industry publications, press releases, blogs, and other web coverage. It is aimed at PR and communications, marketing, brand management, and leadership teams that need current visibility into media coverage. AI context interpretation filters irrelevant matches, while deduplication and narrative grouping help organize coverage beyond a raw stream of mentions.

Its pricing has a clear entry point: the Free plan costs $0 per month and includes one monitor, email and webhook connectors, real-time notifications, and MCP server access. The Build your own plan starts at $99 per month base and adds app connectors and monitor analytics, alongside email and webhook connectors, real-time notifications, and MCP server access. Enterprise includes dedicated support, SLA guarantees, and full API control; a price is not specified here. The paid plan is therefore relevant for teams wanting more connector options or analytics, while the free tier offers a way to start with a single monitor.

The product's workflow emphasis is a stronger fit than broad social listening: it groups coverage into narratives, analyzes sentiment and narrative shifts, shows reach by region, market, and publication, and supports custom reports and briefings. Updates can route to Slack, Salesforce, Google Docs, HubSpot, and webhooks; monitors can also be created and managed programmatically through the API. Choose it when news and web mentions, filtering, and automated routing are central to a monitoring process. Teams needing monitoring beyond those source types should consider a tool with broader source coverage.
