Incogni vs DeleteMe: which one should you actually pick?
Same six criteria for every service, including our own, and an explicit note wherever PersProtect is not the right answer. No affiliate ordering, no invented scores.
Quick answer: Incogni is cheaper and covers more sites automatically; DeleteMe costs more and covers fewer sites on its standard plan but puts human privacy agents behind the requests and reports back quarterly. If you want the most removal per dollar with no involvement, Incogni wins. If you want a person to chase the stubborn brokers and a written report you can read, DeleteMe wins. Neither includes breach or dark-web monitoring.
Head to head
| Service | Removal sites | Price (1 / yr) | Family | Free / trial | Breach monitoring |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Prices and broker counts checked June 2026 against each provider’s public pricing pages. Plans change often — confirm current details on the provider’s site before buying. Broker counts are self-reported and counted differently (advertised reach vs. sites actually removed from), so several are ranges. PersProtect (★) is our own product and is held to the same criteria. Full method on the main comparison page.
Which one fits you
- Price is the deciding factor and you want it fully hands-off
- You would rather have broader automated coverage than a human in the loop
- A 30-day money-back window matters more to you than a trial
~$96/yr (annual billing) · renews ~$96/yr · 420+ (2,420 Unlimited) sites
- You want human privacy agents handling escalations and edge cases
- You want quarterly reports spelling out what was found and removed
- You value the longest track record in the category over the lowest price
$129/yr · renews $129/yr · ~100 (advertises 850+) sites
Neither of those two includes breach or dark-web monitoring, and both ask for a year up front. PersProtect covers 499 sites at the entry tier, adds breach, dark-web and password monitoring, and starts with a $4.99 three-day trial so you can see your exposure first. If the thing you actually want is the cheapest pure removal or a human privacy agent, the two above remain the better answers.

Incogni vs DeleteMe: which is better?
Incogni is cheaper and covers more sites automatically; DeleteMe costs more and covers fewer sites on its standard plan but puts human privacy agents behind the requests and reports back quarterly. If you want the most removal per dollar with no involvement, Incogni wins. If you want a person to chase the stubborn brokers and a written report you can read, DeleteMe wins. Neither includes breach or dark-web monitoring.
Which is cheaper, Incogni or DeleteMe?
Incogni starts at ~$96/yr (annual billing) and renews at ~$96/yr; DeleteMe starts at $129/yr and renews at $129/yr. Figures checked June 2026 — confirm on each provider's site, because pricing in this category moves several times a year.
Do Incogni and DeleteMe remove data from the same sites?
They overlap on the big people-search sites everyone covers, then diverge in the long tail. Incogni lists 420+ (2,420 Unlimited); DeleteMe lists ~100 (advertises 850+). Those numbers are self-reported and counted differently, so the more useful question is how often each one re-checks — brokers repopulate, and a single removal pass wears off.
Can I use both Incogni and DeleteMe?
You can, and a few people do run two services to cover the long tail, but it is rarely worth double the money. The overlap on the highest-traffic broker sites is large, and duplicate removal requests to the same broker do not speed anything up. Picking the one that matches your priority — price, proof, human help or monitoring — is the better use of the budget.
Does either one include breach or dark-web monitoring?
Incogni does not — it is removal only. DeleteMe does not — it is removal only. If you want both removal and alerts when your data leaks, check that before buying, or you end up paying for two subscriptions to solve one problem.
