Comparison
SpotCheck vs Groover
Groover’s pitch is guaranteed feedback: you spend Grooviz to reach curators and they must respond. SpotCheck’s pitch is upstream of that — independently checking whether a playlist’s audience is real before you spend anything.
If your worry is "will I get a reply," Groover answers it. If your worry is "is this playlist actually real," that’s SpotCheck.

FAQ
Is SpotCheck cheaper than Groover?
SpotCheck is free to check a playlist and £4.99/mo for Pro, whereas Groover charges per submission in credits. They do different jobs, but vetting with SpotCheck first reduces what you spend on submissions anywhere.
