Buska
What Buska is
Buska monitors public conversations across social platforms, review sites, and online communities to help find B2B buying opportunities. It identifies signals such as funding, hiring, technology changes, news, active demand, and customer pain, then scores them from 0 to 100 against an ideal customer profile. Buska says it monitors more than 30 platforms and communities, although available sources depend on the plan. Alerts can arrive through Slack, Discord, email, or webhooks.
The service is available on the web and through a REST API. It also provides an MCP server for AI clients including Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. API access and request allowances depend on the plan: Starter does not list API access, while Growth includes 500 requests per month and Scale includes 2,500. The seven-day trial includes five monitored signals, seven sources, and AI scoring, and does not require a credit card. Monthly plans listed are Starter at $49/mo, Growth at $99/mo, and Scale at $249/mo. Buska also sells API credit packages, and its Agency plan uses custom pricing. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in France, Buska describes its intended users as sales teams, growth marketers, SaaS founders, and marketing agencies. Its privacy policy says it processes public social posts rather than private messages or DMs.
