| Pricing | USD $99/month billed yearly (Starter, 2 months free); no month-to-month rate published · free tier: None published; free-trial length and terms not verified | USD $29/month (Lite, 15 search prompts; $25/month effective on annual) · free tier: Free trial for new users (length and card requirement not published); several free supporting tools (AI keyword research, AI Referral Traffic, Query Fan Out, GEO Content Check, AI Crawler Simulation) |
| Pricing model | Subscription with credit-based Agents usage | Subscription |
| Best for | In-house AEO/content teams of three or more at brands or agencies that need multi-engine daily answer-engine tracking and will actively use the Agents and content-generation side, with budget to reach Enterprise for Prompt Volumes, API, SSO and multi-region coverage. | EU-based SME marketing teams and small-to-mid agencies that want daily AI-visibility tracking on the ChatGPT / AI Overviews / Perplexity / Copilot cluster, value unlimited seats and per-client workspaces, and can operate within 100–400 prompts. |
| Avoid if | You are a solo operator or tiny team wanting cheap monitoring (Starter's one-engine, one-seat, no-export limits are hard to justify), you will not commit annually, you need API access or SSO below Enterprise, or your buyers live on Copilot and Google AI Mode which are Enterprise-only. | Your priority engines are Gemini, Google AI Mode or Claude (all paid add-ons, Claude at up to $4,400/year), you are a global brand with many product lines and languages, you need a vendor-level SOC 2 or ISO 27001 attestation or strict EU-only residency, or your procurement requires verified third-party rating evidence. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
