Choose Vollna if…

- You want a long-established tool with years of filter refinement.

- You want market data (rates, demand trends) alongside alerting.
Verdict
If alerting alone solves your problem, Vollna is a respectable pick. If your bottleneck is what happens after the alert — deciding fast and drafting fast — SnipeWork compresses that whole loop into one Telegram message. Both keep you inside Upwork's rules.
Do both tools comply with Upwork's terms?
Both are alerting-first tools where the freelancer submits proposals manually, which is the compliant pattern. Auto-submission is what violates Upwork's terms — neither tool's core loop depends on it.

Yes. SnipeWork has a 14-day free trial with no credit card: live feed, instant alerts and 5 AI proposals. After it, a Free plan keeps a 60-minute-delayed feed; paid plans are $15, $39 or $59 per month.
