TOEFLMock alternatives: what each one actually states about itself
Most "alternatives to" pages are one vendor's advertisement wearing a list's clothes. This one is published by a vendor too — it says so at the top, it leads with what TOEFLMock does well, and every fact in it is quoted from the provider's own page with the date it was read.
Read this first: we are one of the alternatives
Every provider's public page was read on 2026-08-06 without an account, buying nothing. Where a page would not load for us, the entry says so and carries no facts rather than older ones — a price we cannot re-verify today is not a price we publish.
First, what TOEFLMock does well
Three things, plainly. Its Writing and Speaking answers are stated to be read by human evaluators against the rubric, where Reach120 scores with a model — a person reading your response is a different product, not a worse one, and it is the thing a model cannot substitute for. It publishes 45 structured lessons that teach the method behind each 2026 task type, which Reach120 does not have in any form. And it takes payment through Razorpay as well as PayPal, so a card that fails one gateway can go through the other, which matters in more countries than a single-processor checkout admits.
It is a mock-test site at toeflmocktests.com built around numbered full-length and per-section practice tests, whose Writing and Speaking answers are stated to be reviewed by human evaluators against the 1–6 rubric. If that is what you needed, the honest recommendation on this page is to stay where you are — and to check one thing before renewing: Four things its own pages do not settle. Whether it is free at all: the pricing page sells three subscriptions and counts five free starter tests, while the How We Evaluate page states the service is free always and ad-supported — settle it at checkout rather than from either page. How long feedback takes: the same site states under 30 minutes, 1–2 hours and 24–48 hours across four sentences. What "the same band ETS would give" rests on: the site publishes its criteria and its task-score-to-band table, which is more than most publish, but no comparison against real score reports, and no third party has access to ETS’s scoring engines. And the renewal terms: every tier auto-renews and payments are stated non-refundable outside billing errors.
Why people look for something else anyway
These are the reasons the searches themselves suggest, not accusations about any product. They are worth naming because they tell you which column of the table to read.
- Budget. Prep spending competes with a test fee and often an application season; a cheaper or free option for part of the work is a rational move, not a downgrade.
- The format change. The TOEFL test changed on January 21, 2026, and material written for the old format is still on sale across the web. Anyone shopping right now is really asking which product is current.
- Free-tier limits. Almost every AI-scored tool meters something. When the meter runs out mid-week, people look sideways rather than upgrade.
- Wanting to see the material first. Some products only reveal their questions after signup, which is a fair business choice and a frustrating one when you are comparing.
10 alternatives, with their evidence
Unordered on purpose: the sequence carries no meaning and no entry is a winner. Each card states what the provider’s own page said, the date we read it, and — for the ones we could not read — what their server returned instead.
Reach120
This is usListed because leaving ourselves off a list we publish would be the more misleading choice, not because the list is ordered in our favour. It is not ordered at all.
Free access
Reading and Listening practice with no daily cap, every published question bank, transcript, sample response and PDF pack readable without an account, and a metered daily allowance for AI-scored writing and speaking.
Price
Stated only on the pricing page, which this page links rather than restates, so there is one number to keep correct.
Where we are weaker
No taught video lessons, no human tutor review of a response, no exam other than the TOEFL test, and no published scorer-versus-human agreement figure — the benchmark corpus is too small to publish as an accuracy claim.
Arno
It is a multi-exam AI practice platform — the Duolingo English Test, PTE Academic, IELTS, OET, Cambridge exams and the TOEFL test in one product — whose TOEFL page states free unlimited practice for every 2026 question type.
What it does better than Reach120
It covers the Duolingo English Test, PTE Academic, IELTS, OET and Cambridge exams alongside the TOEFL test, and it ships native apps on the App Store and Google Play. Reach120 does neither: one exam, and nothing in either app store today. If you are keeping two or three admissions options open, or you study mostly on a phone, that is a real advantage and it is theirs.
Free access, as their page states it
The TOEFL page states "free unlimited practice for every 2026 question type" and, in its FAQ, "You can practice every TOEFL question type for free with no limits and no credit card." Mock tests beyond the first and "advanced AI feedback on speaking and writing" are stated to need a subscription.
Price, as their page stated it
The only price Arno states publicly for its TOEFL product sits inside its own platform-comparison table on that page: "$12–$24/month". Currency is shown as a dollar sign; the page does not name the currency, the term, or what separates the bottom of the range from the top. There is no pricing page to check it against — https://goarno.io/pricing answered HTTP 404 on 2026-08-06. That one cell is the whole of the public price evidence.
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
Four of the six are named on the TOEFL page, in its feature list and its FAQ: Complete the Words, Listen and Repeat, Take an Interview and Academic Discussion. Build a Sentence and Write an Email are named nowhere on it, and the page’s own summary of the exam describes the writing section as one task — "Academic Discussion: write a discussion board post in 10 minutes". That is what the page states. It is not evidence that the product behind the login omits them, and this table never treats an unnamed task as a missing feature.
Check before you buy
Three things the public pages do not settle. What separates the bottom of the stated "$12–$24/month" range from the top, and on what term, since there is no pricing page. Whether the writing practice you need is in there: that page’s exam summary names one writing task, while the 2026 format ETS documents also has Build a Sentence and Write an Email. And the pages carry self-reported user counts and named student results, which this page restates none of — an unaudited number is not evidence, ours included.

Gabble
It is an AI practice platform selling the IELTS and the TOEFL test in one account, whose TOEFL page carries its price table in place of a pricing page.
What it does better than Reach120
Three things. It prepares you for the IELTS — Academic and General — in the same account as the TOEFL test, which Reach120 does not do at all. It publishes three tools that need no account, where Reach120’s equivalent surfaces are newer and fewer. And it prices in Indian rupees as well as dollars, which is a real difference for the market both products sell into hardest; Reach120 bills in one currency.
Free access, as their page states it
A "Trial Pack" listed at "FREE", stating "Limited credits" and "Limited access" alongside "Instant Grading with AI" and "Limited Writing & Speaking Insights". The page states "Free credits on sign-up. No credit card required." What "limited" equals is not stated as a number anywhere we read. Separately, three tools on https://gabble.ai/tools are headed "Try Gabble’s AI-powered tools — no account required": an IELTS band calculator, a TOEFL score calculator and a college finder.
Price, as their page stated it
The price table sits on the TOEFL landing page, not on a pricing page — https://gabble.ai/pricing answered HTTP 404 on 2026-08-06, as it did on our previous pass. Two paid packs are listed, both on sale as read: "Mini Pack" at "$30" struck through to "$25" for "1 month access", and "Value Pack" at "$39" struck through to "$35" for "2 month access". Both state "Unlimited credits". The table offers a currency switch between USD and INR; the figures above are the USD setting. The page does not state whether a pack renews or simply expires at the end of its term.
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
None of the six 2026 task types is named on any Gabble page we could read, so no cell can be filled. What the TOEFL page names instead is the writing pair the January 2026 format retired — "Integrated & Independent tasks", under a heading stating "Both writing task types are fully supported" — and the pre-2026 speaking rubric, "Delivery, Language Use, and Topic Development". The same page carries a badge reading "iBT 2026 · Format covered", and its footer links a "TOEFL 2026 Prep" page at https://gabble.ai/toefl-2026 which answered 200 with the body "Page not Found!" on 2026-08-06. Both readings are recorded because the site states both; neither is evidence about what runs behind the login.
Check before you buy
Three things its pages do not settle. What "Limited credits" equals — no number is published, so the free pack cannot be compared with anyone’s allowance. Which writing tasks you actually get: the page advertises Integrated and Independent writing, and those are the tasks the format retired on January 21, 2026, while the same page states it covers the 2026 format. And its TOEFL score calculator computes a total "out of 120", the scale official reports stopped using on that date. The page also carries a self-reported student count, a star rating and six named testimonials with score jumps; this page restates none of them, ours included — an unaudited number is not evidence.

TOEFL Exam Prep
It is a subscription TOEFL platform whose front door is a free ten-minute four-section diagnostic that returns an estimated band with no signup form.
What it does better than Reach120
Its front door is more generous than ours, and plainly so: ten minutes of real tasks across all four sections, an estimated band per section and a study plan, with no signup form and no card — where an anonymous Reach120 visitor gets 1 AI-scored response a day. It also states unlimited AI grading on every paid term against our metered free tier and fair-use ceiling, offers a 14-day money-back guarantee on a first purchase, and sells a one-week term for people sitting the test next Saturday, which Reach120 does not offer.
Free access, as their page states it
A free diagnostic rather than a free tier, and it is unusually open: "Free · 10 minutes · No signup form", running "short forms of the real tasks in all four sections" and returning "an estimated band for each section, your weakest task types, and a study plan built from your result". The page states you "see your result before paying anything".
Price, as their page stated it
Three subscription terms, each shown on sale: "1 Week" at "$19.90" struck to "$14.90", "per week · billed weekly"; "3 Months" at "$119.70" struck to "$74.90", "billed every 3 months"; "1 Year" at "$478.80" struck to "$99.90", "per year · billed yearly". Currency is shown as a dollar sign; the page does not name the currency. The FAQ states a "14-day money-back guarantee" on a first subscription purchase with "Renewal charges … excluded", and that you can "upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your plan at any time", with changes taking effect "on your next billing date".
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
Five of the six are named in the section describing what the product grades: "AI-graded Speaking — Listen-and-Repeat and Interview tasks", "AI-graded Writing — Email and Academic Discussion tasks", and "Instant Reading & Listening — Complete-the-Words, academic and daily-life passages, announcements, talks, and conversations". Build a Sentence is the weaker cell and is marked as named on a thinner basis: it appears in their FAQ’s description of what the exam now contains, and as a "Free Build a Sentence Practice" page in their own footer, but not in that product list. We separate the two because a page describing the exam is not a page claiming to cover it — the mistake we made reading TestGlider and corrected.
Check before you buy
Three things worth checking yourself. What the struck prices mean: "$119.70" and "$478.80" are exactly three and twelve times $39.90, the monthly price our own dated notes recorded on 2026-07-30 and which the page no longer sells — so ask whether anyone was charged the figure the discount is measured from. That the guarantee excludes renewals while the weekly plan rebills every seven days. And which writing tasks you meet: the dashboard image on their homepage labels a module "Integrated Writing", a task the 2026 format retired, even though the copy around it is 2026-specific. The learner count in their headline is self-reported, so the figure itself is not restated here.

PrepEx
It is an AI TOEFL practice platform whose pricing page itemises the 2026 task families section by section.
What it does better than Reach120
Its stated free allowance is more generous than ours on the axis most people care about: three AI-graded submissions a day across all four sections, against Reach120’s one shared daily credit. It also bundles a prepaid official practice-test code and advertises a test-registration discount — an economics angle Reach120 does not have and will not manufacture.
Free access, as their page states it
The homepage states free accounts get "3 daily practice submissions (shared across Writing, Speaking, Reading, and Listening)" with "Full AI grading and feedback on every submission".
Price, as their page stated it
Pro is listed at "$39.99/month", marked "20% off", and at "$89.99 every 3 months", framed as "25% off, just $30/month". Currency is shown as a dollar sign; the page does not name the currency. A bundle adds a prepaid ETS TOEFL Practice Online code: the page states the code "is added for $40 on top of your selected PrepEx Pro plan".
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
The pricing page itemises task families by section, naming Complete the Words, Listen & Repeat, Take an Interview, Build a Sentence, Write an Email and Academic Discussion. That is the page naming them; we did not create an account to watch them run.
Check before you buy
The pricing page does not state whether plans renew automatically; check the terms at checkout. The credit meter is on the speaking coach, so read what a credit buys before comparing monthly prices.
Read 2026-08-06 from PrepEx pricing page, PrepEx homepage.
TestGlider
It is a TOEFL practice product whose homepage advertises a free full-length 2026 mock test at signup.
What it does better than Reach120
A full-length 2026 mock at signup with no payment is a bigger free first sitting than Reach120 hands an anonymous visitor, whose free scored volume is metered from the first response.
Free access, as their page states it
The homepage advertises a "TOEFL 2026 Free Mock Test" and "Sign Up and Get One Free TOEFL Mock Test".
Price, as their page stated it
No price appeared on the pages we could read on this date; the pricing surface renders client-side. We therefore state no TestGlider price on this page.
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
The homepage lists 2026 features — adaptive Reading and Listening, a "New 6-point evaluation", real-life task content and faster score turnaround. Read carefully, those describe the exam ETS now runs, not TestGlider’s own grading, so nothing on that list can be counted as their task coverage. We flag it because the same list is easy to misread as a product claim, and we misread it ourselves in an earlier internal note.
Check before you buy
Because the price is not readable without loading their app, get the term and the renewal behaviour in writing before paying.

Magoosh
It is a taught TOEFL course with video lessons, an AI tutor and a stated refund policy, sold as one-month and six-month plans.
What it does better than Reach120
Two things, both clearly: a full refund within seven days "for any reason", which is more generous than Reach120’s conditional window, and a taught course with lessons rather than a practice-and-feedback system. If you want to be taught the test rather than drilled on it, that is a real difference.
Free access, as their page states it
A trial rather than a free tier: "Try Magoosh for 7 days with no commitment".
Price, as their page stated it
On sale as read: "Premium · 1 month" at "$54.50 USD" against "Usually $109", and "Premium · 6 months" at "$64.50 USD" against "Usually $129", or four monthly payments of $16.13. Sale prices move; the struck prices are the page’s own. The page states plainly: "No. Magoosh plans do not renew or auto-renew."
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
The page makes a whole-product statement — "The TOEFL changed on January 21, 2026, and our content is fully updated for the new test format" — without naming individual 2026 task types, so no task cell can be filled from it.
Check before you buy
The guarantee is stated in points, which is the unit of the retired 0–120 report; official reports have used 1–6 bands since January 21, 2026. Ask how it is applied to a current score report before relying on it.
Read 2026-08-06 from Magoosh TOEFL plans page.
LingoLeap
It is a credit-metered TOEFL practice platform that publishes the credit cost of each individual AI evaluation.
What it does better than Reach120
It publishes the credit cost of each individual action, which is the most transparent metering statement in this set — you can work out what a month of practice will actually cost you before paying. Reach120 does not price actions that way, so there is nothing equivalent to compare against.
Free access, as their page states it
Not stated on the pricing page as read. The page offers a "Start Free Practice" button without describing what the free tier includes.
Price, as their page stated it
Plus is listed at "$20/mo", or "$50 at once" for three months ("$16.6/mo"); Premium at "$49/mo", or "$123 at once" for three months ("$41/mo"). Annual terms are also shown. The three-month plans state "90 days" of validity.
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
Only two of the six are named on the pricing page, inside the credit-cost list. The others may well be covered elsewhere on the site; this table records what the page we read stated, not what exists.
Check before you buy
Work the credit arithmetic for your own study plan: at the stated costs, a full practice test consumes a large share of a Plus allowance.

BestMyTest
It is a TOEFL preparation platform whose public pages did not answer our requests.
What it does better than Reach120
We cannot say, and will not guess. A product whose pages we could not read gets no assessment from us in either direction — including a negative one. The absence of a list of strengths here is missing evidence, not a verdict, and we are not restating what other review sites say about it either.
Free access, as their page states it
Not readable on the date this page was published.
Price, as their page stated it
Both https://www.bestmytest.com/toefl/pricing and https://www.bestmytest.com/toefl answered HTTP 403 to our requests on 2026-08-06. Our own rule forbids republishing a price we could not re-verify today, so this page states no BestMyTest price, free allowance or feature as fact.
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
No coverage cell can be filled: the pages that would state which 2026 task types are covered did not load for us. An empty table here means missing evidence, never a missing feature.
Check before you buy
Open their pricing page in your own browser — a normal browser session may well be served where our request was not — and check the term, the renewal behaviour and whether the material names the 2026 task types before paying.

ETS TOEFL TestReady
It is the test maker’s own preparation offering, reached through the official TOEFL preparation hub.
What it does better than Reach120
It is made by the organisation that writes the test. Official practice questions are the real thing rather than anybody’s reconstruction of it, its material is the only material that can settle a question about the format, and its sample test is stated to be accessible to screen readers. Nothing Reach120 publishes can substitute for that authority, and this page does not pretend otherwise.
Free access, as their page states it
ETS publishes free preparation material, including a sample test, on its official preparation pages. What is free and what is paid is stated there and changes; check it at the source.
Price, as their page stated it
Reach120 does not publish ETS prices, fees or product SKUs anywhere — not as a figure, not as a comparison anchor, and not converted into another currency. Using the test maker’s own price to sell an independent practice tool is a line we do not cross. Read them on ETS’s site.
2026 task coverage — what we could establish
No task-coverage cells are filled from ETS material. The 2026 task types are defined BY ETS — scoring their own publications against a coverage table built from third-party pages would be a category error, not a measurement.
Check before you buy
Start with the free official material and the published test specifications before buying anything anywhere — they settle format questions no third party can. Prices, inclusions and availability are on ETS’s own site; this page states none of them, deliberately.

How to compare them yourself, in four questions
- 1Does its public material name the six 2026 task types — Build a Sentence, Write an Email, Academic Discussion, Listen and Repeat, Take an Interview, Complete the Words? A product still describing the integrated essay is describing a retired exam.
- 2What exactly is free, and is it free per day, per month or once? A time-limited trial and a permanently free allowance are different products.
- 3What does the meter measure — submissions, credits, sessions, minutes? Compare the meter before comparing the monthly price.
- 4Does anyone tell you how the score is produced? Almost nobody does. Ask, and treat a straight answer as a feature.
- Reach120 vs TOEFLMock, head to head
The same evidence arranged as a two-column comparison, with the task-coverage table.
- The full tool roundup
The wider set, including two providers whose pages would not answer us, published rather than dropped.
- What actually changed in the 2026 format
The six task types, sourced to ETS, so you can audit any product’s coverage claim yourself.
TOEFLMock alternatives: common questions
- What are the alternatives to TOEFLMock?
- The ones this page can evidence are Arno, Gabble, TOEFL Exam Prep, PrepEx, TestGlider, Magoosh, LingoLeap, BestMyTest, ETS TOEFL TestReady, and Reach120, which publishes this page and says so. Each entry below carries what its own public page stated about free access, price and 2026 task coverage, with the date we read it.
- Is there a free alternative to TOEFLMock?
- Reach120's free tier is the one this page can state exactly, because it is ours: Reading and Listening practice is free with no daily limit and no lifetime limit. Write an Email, Write for an Academic Discussion and Take an Interview share 1 AI-scored credit a day; Listen & Repeat has its own allowance of 3 a day. Published questions, answers, transcripts, sample responses and PDF packs need no account.
- Should I switch away from TOEFLMock?
- Not on the strength of a page written by a competitor. Start with what it does well — Three things, plainly. Its Writing and Speaking answers are stated to be read by human evaluators against the rubric, where Reach120 scores with a model — a person reading your response is a different product, not a worse one, and it is the thing a model cannot substitute for. It publishes 45 structured lessons that teach the method behind each 2026 task type, which Reach120 does not have in any form. And it takes payment through Razorpay as well as PayPal, so a card that fails one gateway can go through the other, which matters in more countries than a single-processor checkout admits. — and switch only if the thing you are short of is somewhere else. Before paying anyone: Four things its own pages do not settle. Whether it is free at all: the pricing page sells three subscriptions and counts five free starter tests, while the How We Evaluate page states the service is free always and ad-supported — settle it at checkout rather than from either page. How long feedback takes: the same site states under 30 minutes, 1–2 hours and 24–48 hours across four sentences. What "the same band ETS would give" rests on: the site publishes its criteria and its task-score-to-band table, which is more than most publish, but no comparison against real score reports, and no third party has access to ETS’s scoring engines. And the renewal terms: every tier auto-renews and payments are stated non-refundable outside billing errors.
- Which alternative covers the 2026 TOEFL task types?
- That is exactly the axis this page compares, because it is checkable: either a provider’s public page names the six task types the January 2026 format introduced or it does not. Reach120 links the page that runs each of the six, so the claim can be checked by clicking rather than by trusting a table.
- Is this list ranked?
- No. There is no order of merit, no score and no "best" entry, and the structured data emits an unordered list carrying no position. There are no star ratings anywhere on the page either — Reach120 has no published review corpus, so a rating would be invented.
