AgencyAnalytics vs Databox
These two sell reporting on different meters. AgencyAnalytics charges for each client you manage and puts a white-labelled client portal, unlimited data sources and unlimited staff accounts inside that price. Databox meters users, data sources and AI credits, and only Databox between them has a free forever plan. An agency with a steady client list gets a simpler bill from AgencyAnalytics, while a single marketing team that wants to start at zero gets more from Databox. The vendors sit in Toronto and Boston respectively.
Vendors can pay for more visibility on this website, for example a higher place in a ranking or more room on a page. Commercial relationships can also affect which products we feature and how prominently. Every vendor link is marked the same, whatever the arrangement behind it. How that works.
you run an agency with a stable list of clients and want a branded portal, scheduled reports and unlimited staff seats under one per-client price. You can live with rank and AI tracking being billed as extras.
you report on one brand or team, would rather start at zero cost and ask an AI analyst questions about live data. You do not need a separate branded portal for every client.

Where they differ
AgencyAnalytics 2 · Databox 2 · open 2- 01
Where a free plan exists
Databox has a Free plan that never expires, covering 1 user, 3 data sources, 50 AI credits, one dashboard or report and 10 custom metrics, though it lacks CSV export and sharing. AgencyAnalytics shows no free plan in the material we read, and gives a two-week trial without a card instead. Anyone who wants to run reports for months before paying anything can only do that at Databox, so it takes this round on the free tier alone, even though that tier is small.

The $20 client meter
AgencyAnalytics Core costs $20 USD per client per month, billed annually, and the page says annual billing saves 20%. Cost therefore rises in a straight line with the number of clients, and no client cap is stated. Volume pricing for 25 or more clients is available only by contacting sales. An agency with 10 clients sees a figure it can compute in seconds, which is a real advantage when quoting a retainer or checking whether a small account is worth taking.

Branded portals for clients
AgencyAnalytics includes a client portal with white label (logo, colours and custom domain) and scheduled reports sent automatically to every client. Databox sells branding and white-labelling as a paid add-on at $80 per month, and its own data lists sharing only from Team Core upward. For a studio that hands dashboards to clients every month, the base price at AgencyAnalytics already covers what Databox charges extra for.

Seat, source and credit ladder at Databox
Databox plan cards show Analyst at $71 per month with 1 user and 5 sources, Team Core at $199 with 3 users and 10 sources, and Team Scale at $319 with 10 users and 30 sources, all billed annually. The FAQ quotes $249 and $399 for the two Team tiers, and the page does not say why the figures differ. Treat the card prices as the lower reading and confirm in writing.
Depends on the buyer

AI analyst and agent maturity
Databox centres on an AI analyst called Genie, a semantic layer and goals with OKRs, with 130+ integrations. Agents and MCP connectors are marked Soon on the Team and Scale tiers, so some features are not live yet. AgencyAnalytics lists AgencyAI insights, benchmarks and MCP access for ChatGPT and Claude in the base price, and its AI Tracker add-on is labelled beta. Databox has the deeper AI story, with caveats.

Location and connector counts
AgencyAnalytics gives its office as 134 Peter Street, Toronto, Canada, under AgencyAnalytics Inc, and names 90+ integrations including Google Analytics, Semrush, Ahrefs and HubSpot (one page elsewhere says 85+). Databox, Inc. is in Boston, registered in Delaware, with terms under Massachusetts law. Neither site states an owner, and neither says whether the product is cloud-only. Neither is European, and data residency is not shown for either on our pages.
Depends on the buyer
When neither fits
Should a European base matter to you, or a reporting tool priced for a flat team, neither suits you well. Swydo and Whatagraph are the other names in our marketing analytics ranking worth comparing first.
AgencyAnalytics or Databox: questions
3 answersDoes AgencyAnalytics charge for staff accounts?
No, the pricing page lists unlimited staff accounts, data sources, reports and dashboards in the per-client price. The meter is the client.
Rank Tracker at $41.67 per month per 500 keywords and AI Tracker at $20.83 per month per 250 credits are separate add-ons, billed annually.
Can a team stay on Databox for free indefinitely?
Yes, the Free plan never expires, but it is capped at 1 user, 3 data sources and 50 AI credits a month.
It also allows one dashboard or report and shows no CSV export or sharing. Paid tiers can be trialled for 14 days, card not needed.
Why do two Databox prices appear on one page?
The plan cards show Team Core at $199, Team Scale at $319 and Agency from $79 per month. The FAQ shows $249, $399 and $99. The page does not explain the gap, so ask Databox which figure applies to your billing before you commit.
