Ketch alternative
Ketch is one of the few "developer-first" CMPs that also publishes its own pricing — something neither OneTrust nor most of the category does, and we give it credit for that. It has real traction: G2 Enterprise Leader (Fall 2026, 4.6/5 across 170+ reviews) and a broad platform with 1,000+ pre-built connectors. The difference with Tripticonsent isn't "who's more developer-first" — it's the billing unit: Ketch charges by monthly unique visitors across the whole site, and that published price has a ceiling.
| Ketch | Tripticonsent | |
|---|---|---|
| Billing unit | Monthly unique visitors across the whole site | Real consent events — unlimited sites and visitors |
| Published-price ceiling | 100,000 visitors/month; above that, a custom contract | No ceiling — the same $0.25/1,000 events at any volume |
| Proof of consent | A record inside their platform | Append-only vault + Ed25519 signed receipt, offline-verifiable |
| AI-agent access | APIs their own marketing describes as "MCP-style" — no public docs of an OAuth-secured MCP server | Production MCP server with OAuth 2.1, DCR and PKCE, scoped like a teammate |
| Minimal integration | Smart Tag + visual editor, or APIs with OpenAPI contracts | npm i @tripticonsent/sdk or a single REST call |
Pricing. Ketch: free up to 5,000 visitors/month, then $150/mo up to 30,000, from $499/mo (billed annually) up to 100,000 — beyond that, a custom Pro contract. Tripticonsent: free up to 1,000 events/month, then $19/mo + $0.25 per additional 1,000 events, with no visitor or site ceiling. See full pricing.
What it does well
- Highest rating in this comparison group: G2 Enterprise Leader (Fall 2026), 4.6/5 across 170+ reviews
- One of the few CMPs at this tier that publishes its own pricing (Free, Starter, Plus) without a sales call to get started
- A broad platform: 1,000+ pre-built connectors, SDKs for web/iOS/Android/React, APIs with OpenAPI contracts
Real user complaints
- The published price has a ceiling: past 100,000 monthly unique visitors you negotiate a custom Pro plan, with enterprise contracts independent analysts put at $30,000–$60,000+/year
- Bills by unique visitors across the whole site, not consent events — a high-traffic site with little banner interaction pays the same
- G2 reviews note a complex initial setup, with some editing features not immediately obvious
“Their services are basically useless and way overpriced. After-market support is practically nonexistent as well, due to how difficult it is to communicate with customer service.”
For very large needs spanning multiple modules — DSR, data mapping, risk management — yes, Ketch covers more surface. If what you need is the consent layer with verifiable proof and pricing that stays the same as you grow, Tripticonsent solves exactly that, at any volume.
You move to the Pro plan, which Ketch quotes by contract — the same "talk to sales" dynamic as OneTrust or other enterprise suites, it just kicks in later. On Tripticonsent the per-event price is the same at any volume: $19/mo + $0.25 per additional 1,000 events.
Migrate the consent layer, don't rewrite your banner.
The SDK speaks the same purpose/GRANTED-DENIED state model you already use. Integration is one API call.
