What is Buska?

Buska is a social listening platform built for lead generation. Instead of counting brand mentions, it scans public conversations for people who are looking for a vendor, scores each post from 0 to 100, and sorts the results into HOT, WARM or EXPLORE tiers. The company says more than 3,000 teams have run a search on it.

The product is aimed at B2B founders without a sales team. A buyer might post that a CRM budget is approved or ask which agency handles a migration, and Buska surfaces that post with the sentence that shows intent highlighted. The goal is a short daily list, with about five seconds to decide on each lead.

How does Buska work?

Buska reads posts, comments, reviews and questions on its supported platforms, along with their real dates. Each post gets three checks: buying intent, recency, and fit with the user's ideal customer profile. Posts that pass are scored and tiered. Users can filter by country and language, and scans refresh daily, every three hours or hourly depending on the plan.

Alerts go to Slack, Discord, email or webhook when a HOT lead appears. A daily digest arrives at 4 pm and stays silent when nothing is worth attention. From there, leads move through a Kanban pipeline from To qualify to Won, with Reply Studio drafting responses in a peer, expert or founder tone from the Growth plan.

Key features of Buska

Core monitoring covers signals, ICP profiles and sources, with limits that rise by plan. Starter tracks 5 signals across 16+ sources, Growth 15 signals across 28+, and Scale 30 signals across 33+. Sources include Twitter/X, Reddit, LinkedIn, YouTube, Hacker News, Quora, G2, Trustpilot and Google, with Telegram, WhatsApp and Google Maps on Scale.

Engagement tools include AI Reply Studio, Prospect Finder, lead enrichment, CSV export, webhooks and API access. The Scale plan adds an AI SDR Agent that finds leads, writes messages from the prospect's own post and sends them from the user's inbox over SMTP. The first eight sends need manual approval before autopilot becomes available.
