Breezy: the Similarweb alternative for businesses looking to build successful data-driven partnerships
At Breezy, we get asked a lot about how we compare to tools like Similarweb. Similarweb is the leading traffic comparison tool, great for analysing competitors and similar sites. But sometimes, you just need a dedicated partner discovery tool to get the job done.
Breezy versus Similarweb
We love Similarweb. Who wouldn’t love an all-in-one digital marketing analytics tool that can share some pretty cool data about your competitors and potential partners?!
With Breezy, you know what you’re getting. For each partner search you run, we’ll show you every relevant entity we uncover. That means thousands of leads to power your partnership strategy right now and long into the future – no matter what pricing plan you’re on.
Things aren’t quite so rosey with Similarweb. Instead, you’ll be restricted to viewing just five to 50 results per search (or up to 100 if you upgrade to their $349 per month package). That means sorting and filtering your results can only get you so far.
Put it like this: a Breezy search typically yields between 10 and 50x more results than a Similarweb search. That’s between 10 and 50x better value for money!

Breezy is the market’s most powerful partner search engine
Breezy allows you to run powerful, highly-tailored partner searches, geared towards helping you to reach your partner discovery goals.
While Similarweb lets you run keyword-based and competitor-based searches, it doesn’t combine the data sets. That means you’ll have to cross-reference the results from multiple searches to end up with a definitive list. Similarly, it only allows you to search one keyword or up to five competitors at a time.
On the other hand, Breezy can analyse and pull together data from up to 40 competitors and 500 keywords all at once, combining these data sets to yield overlap and give you results you know you can rely on. In other words, you can be confident that if an entity isn’t showing up in your results, they’re probably not relevant to your niche. Nice!
Unlike Similarweb, Breezy uncovers 1000s of leads each month
With Breezy, you know what you’re getting. For each partner search you run, we’ll show you every relevant entity we uncover. That means thousands of leads to power your partnership strategy right now and long into the future – no matter what pricing plan you’re on.
Things aren’t quite so rosey with Similarweb. Instead, you’ll be restricted to viewing just five to 50 results per search (or up to 100 if you upgrade to their $349 per month package). That means sorting and filtering your results can only get you so far.
Put it like this: a Breezy search typically yields between 10 and 50x more results than a Similarweb search. That’s between 10 and 50x better value for money!
The Similarweb competitor focused on relevancy
At Breezy, our #1 priority is finding you hyper-relevant leads that could make suitable partners.
- Our proprietary Breezy relevancy score ranks results by relevancy and allows you see the leads that most closely match your search inputs first.
- Advanced filters enable you to organise your results by partner type and location, so you can view entities that fit with your partner discovery goals.
- Detailed partnership data on each lead allows you to confirm that a lead already works as a paid partner, and reveal which networks they’re part of.
While Similarweb has a ‘find affiliates’ tool, it doesn’t confirm that the entities recommended actually work as paid partners – and it won’t allow you to search for leads by country unless you upgrade to a pricier plan.
Meanwhile, the Breezy tool has been specially designed to show you leads that are highly relevant to your brand and actively interested in working as paid partners. That way, you have the best chance of converting leads into collaborators!
Gain valuable insights into niche partner ecosystems
When it comes to forming a robust partnership strategy for your brand, you need to understand where you sit within the partnership landscape as a whole.
That’s why Breezy is creating a one-of-a-kind partnership database. So far, we’ve mapped more than 7M partnerships across 350 networks, 250K brands and 800K content creators – making Breezy the world’s biggest partnership database. And there’s more to come!
While Similarweb and similar sites can show you other players in your industry and how they’re performing, this data isn’t geared towards helping you to understand their partnerships. On the other hand, the Breezy partner database gives you a high-level understanding of the global ecosystem, shows you spend by partnership type and lets you segment the data into niche ecosystems specific to your company.
Breezy trumps Similarweb for partner-focused competitor analysis
Similarweb is known for providing competitor analysis. And we’re not going to lie – they’re pretty great at it! With Similarweb, you can view your competitors’ traffic share, engagement levels, audience data and more.
However, none of this data is centred around helping you to find partners. Sure, Similarweb allows you to enter your competitors to find leads that link to them. But there’s no way of knowing whether these are actually partnerships, or simply organic links!
In contrast, Breezy’s partner database enables you to track your positioning in the partner landscape against competitor brands and identify which of your existing partners also collaborate with competitors. You’ll still get valuable traffic and audience data (in fact, this is data that we pull straight from Similarweb!). But you can also reveal the untapped opportunity with powerful gap analysis – setting you up for partnership success!
