Best AI Visibility Tools in 2026: 11 Platforms Compared
Entry prices range from $29 to custom contracts. We compare the engines included, the real cost of a 50-prompt program and which AI assistants recommend each tool.
Building product experiences that make AI visibility measurable and actionable.
Why AI visibility needs its own tool
A buyer asks 
ChatGPT for the best tools in your category. The answer names four vendors, explains who each one suits and cites two review sites and a comparison article. If your brand is missing, you never see the lost opportunity: there is no click, no impression and no row in Search Console.
That is the gap AI visibility tools fill. They send a fixed set of buyer questions to assistants such as ChatGPT, 
Google AI Mode, 
Gemini and Perplexity on a schedule, then record which brands appear, in what order, with what sentiment and with which sources. The category is young and crowded, with offers that range from $29 trackers to enterprise platforms with agents and custom contracts.
This guide compares 11 of them on what a buying team actually pays for: the engines included in the price, the number of questions you can track, the evidence you can open and what the tool helps you do next. Prices come from each vendor's public pricing page or a dated independent breakdown, listed in every profile.
Disclosure: I work on 
SupaIntent, one of the tools in this list. It appears first because this is our guide, not because of a score. Every other profile uses the same facts and the same questions, and I state where a competitor is the better choice.
The 11 best AI visibility tools at a glance
| Tool | Best for | Entry price | AI engines |
|---|---|---|---|
| SupaIntent | Teams that need to explain why AI recommends a competitor and turn that evidence into tasks | $99/month | ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Perplexity on every plan |
| In-house SEO and content teams that want clean daily tracking with unlimited users | $95/month | Choose 3 of the standard models (ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews, Gemini, Copilot, Naver AI); a 4th model is a paid add-on; Claude is Enterprise only | |
| Enterprise marketing teams that want agents, prompt volume data and agent traffic analytics in one contract | Custom | Up to 9 on Enterprise: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek, Claude, AI Overviews and Exa | |
| Small teams and consultants who want a low entry price, many countries and built-in GEO audits | $29/month | ChatGPT, AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot included; Google AI Mode and Gemini cost $9 to $149 each per month by plan; Claude $29 to $439 | |
| Teams that want the widest model list and content actions on a credit budget | $295/month | 11 models on Starter, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, AI Mode, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, Meta AI and Mistral | |
| Content teams that want monitoring and AI-written articles in the same subscription | $95/month | 4 tracked models per plan from a list that includes ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, AI Mode, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek and Grok | |
| Brands that want persona-based monitoring and an AI-readable version of their site | $300/month | ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews and Meta on all plans | |
| SEO teams already working in Semrush that want AI visibility next to keyword data | $99/month | ChatGPT and Google AI Mode for prompt tracking and brand performance | |
| SEO teams that want market-level AI visibility from a large prompt database without building prompt lists | €47/month | AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot; Claude on the AI Visibility Index | |
| Agencies and analysts who want many engines, flexible schedules and pay-per-check credits | $99/month | ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, Claude and Copilot | |
| Teams that want monitoring, site audits and article production from one vendor | $125/month | ChatGPT, AI Overviews and Perplexity included; Google AI Mode, Gemini, Claude, Copilot and others are paid add-ons |
Read the engines column before the price column. Several low entry prices include only ChatGPT plus one or two other assistants, and the Google surfaces many buyers use every day are sold separately. A plan that looks $50 cheaper can cost more once it covers the same engines.
Which tools do AI assistants recommend?
It seems fair to ask the assistants themselves. In October 2026 SupaIntent ran a one-time study that asked AI assistants, including ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Gemini, the same shortlist question and recorded the brands they recommend. In that run, the answers named 15 brands and cited 18 source domains.
Profound
Otterly.AI
Peec AI
Semrush
BrightEdge
Ahrefs
Scrunch AI
Rankscale
SE Ranking
Similarweb
Three things stand out. First, Profound,
Otterly.AI and
Peec AI hold the top three positions, so AI treats them as the default shortlist. Second, SEO suites such as
Semrush,
BrightEdge and
Ahrefs sit in the top six, probably because assistants still associate the category with established SEO vendors. Third, no single publisher dominates the citations: Citedaily, Zapier and Indexly are cited most often, but none of them owns the answer, so the narrative of this category is still open.
SupaIntent is not in that top 10. I include the result anyway, because a guide that hides its own ranking would not be worth reading. The index measures how often AI recommends a brand, not how well the product works, and it is a useful reminder that being good at a product is not the same as being visible in AI answers. That is exactly the problem these tools exist to measure.
How to choose an AI visibility tool
Most comparisons stop at feature checklists. Almost every vendor now lists mentions, share of voice, sentiment and citations, so the checklist rarely separates them. These six questions do.
1. Which engines are included in the price?
Start from your buyers, not the vendor's logo wall. B2B and consumer research in 2026 runs through ChatGPT and Google's AI surfaces: AI Overviews in classic search, AI Mode as a conversational tab and Gemini as a standalone assistant. Perplexity matters in research-heavy categories. List the engines you need, then price each tool with those engines switched on. Add-ons for Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude are where most budgets grow.
2. How many prompts do you need, and how often?
A useful first program has 30 to 50 questions: category shortlists, direct comparisons with named competitors, use cases and objections. Daily runs show volatility; weekly runs are enough for strategy. Credit-based tools such as Rankscale and
AthenaHQ charge per answer, so multiply prompts by engines by runs before you compare them with flat plans.
3. Can you open the evidence behind every number?
A visibility score is a summary. Before you act on it, you need the answer text, the competitor that took your place and the sources the assistant cited. Ask each vendor to show a single prompt from score to original answer to cited page. If that path takes more than two clicks, your team will stop checking the evidence.
4. Does the tool help you decide what to fix?
Monitoring tells you that something changed. Your team still has to decide whether the fix is a page on your site, a review profile, a comparison article, a Reddit thread or a technical issue. Look for site audits, source analysis and prioritized recommendations, and check whether they are tied to the prompts you track or generic advice.
5. Where does the data go?
Agencies need white-label reports and per-client projects. Analysts need exports, an API or a Looker Studio connector. Teams that use AI agents increasingly want MCP access, so an assistant can query visibility data directly. Check the plan that includes these, because they are often reserved for higher tiers.
6. How many people and markets does the plan cover?
Seats, projects and countries are the quiet limits. Peec AI includes unlimited users but reserves multi-country tracking for Advanced. Scrunch prices extra seats. Otterly.AI covers 50+ countries from its first plan. Write down your markets and team size before the first demo.
The best AI visibility tools in 2026, reviewed
1. SupaIntent
SupaIntent is built around one question: why does AI recommend a competitor, and what should we change? It tracks your own buyer prompts in ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Perplexity, and runs a separate regular study of your whole category so you can see the market beyond your own prompt list.
The difference shows after the first chart. Content Gaps identifies the questions where a competitor is more visible. The topic sentiment matrix shows how each brand is described, with answer excerpts behind every positive, negative and neutral observation. Citation analysis connects those statements to the pages AI cites, filtered by provider, prompt group or period. Tech Review checks crawler access, robots.txt, sitemaps, llms.txt, rendered content, structure and metadata, and Action Plan turns the problems, content gaps and negative themes into priorities.
Reddit Radar, YouTube Radar and Review Radar break out the communities, videos and review pages cited in answers. Pro adds Ads Radar for paid placements beside AI answers, MCP for external agents, white label and a second project.
- Best for
- Teams that need to explain why AI recommends a competitor and turn that evidence into tasks
- Entry price
- $99/month. Growth: 50 prompts, daily refresh, multi-country. Pro: $299 for 150 prompts, 2 projects, MCP, Ads Radar and white label. 7-day free trial.
- AI engines
- ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Perplexity on every plan
- Data access
- MCP on Pro; CSV and Excel exports
- Checked October 2026
- SupaIntent pricing
Choose it if you need the evidence chain from a lost recommendation to a specific page, source or technical fix, with all four major engines included at the entry price. Look elsewhere if you need Claude, Copilot or DeepSeek tracking today, or AI-written articles inside the same subscription.
2. Peec AI
Peec AI is the Berlin-based tracker that many SEO teams try first. It is clean, fast to set up and reports the three core metrics of the category: visibility, position and sentiment, with source analysis showing which sites shape the answers. Every plan includes unlimited users and daily tracking, which is rare at this price, and a Looker Studio connector and MCP make the data easy to move.
The constraint is model coverage. Self-serve plans track three models you choose, a fourth costs extra, Claude is reserved for Enterprise and multi-country tracking starts at Advanced. Peec also changed its model lineup in September 2026, moving Perplexity tracking out of the standard self-serve choices according to PricingSaaS. Read our Peec AI alternatives guide for tools that include more engines by default.
- Best for
- In-house SEO and content teams that want clean daily tracking with unlimited users
- Entry price
- $95/month. Starter: 50 prompts, 3 chosen models, 1 project. Pro: $245 for 150 prompts. Advanced: $495 for 350 prompts and multi-country tracking. Annual billing is about 15% lower.
- AI engines
- Choose 3 of the standard models (ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews, Gemini, Copilot, Naver AI); a 4th model is a paid add-on; Claude is Enterprise only

- Checked October 2026
- Rework pricing breakdown, October 2026 · PricingSaaS changelog, September 2026
Choose it if three engines cover your buyers and you want a simple tracker for a whole team. Look elsewhere if you need Perplexity, Claude or several countries without moving to a higher tier.
3. Profound
Profound is one of the best-funded companies in the category and AI's most frequent recommendation in our index. Its scope goes well beyond tracking: Prompt Volumes estimates what people ask AI, Agent Analytics shows how AI crawlers read and refer traffic to your pages, Shopping tracks products in ChatGPT Shopping, and an AI Marketer with pre-built agents drafts content and outreach for approval. Enterprise plans cover up to nine engines.
In September 2026 Profound removed its self-serve Starter and Growth plans for brands. What remains is a free trial and a custom Enterprise contract, with agencies still able to buy workspaces at $399 a month each. For a large team that wants one strategic platform, that is fine. For everyone else, it turns a tool purchase into a sales process. Our Profound alternatives guide covers the options with published prices.
- Best for
- Enterprise marketing teams that want agents, prompt volume data and agent traffic analytics in one contract
- Entry price
- Custom. Free trial (50 prompts for 7 days) and custom-priced Enterprise. Self-serve brand plans were removed in September 2026; agencies can still buy workspaces at $399/month each.
- AI engines
- Up to 9 on Enterprise: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek, Claude, AI Overviews and Exa

Choose it if you have an enterprise budget and want demand estimates, agent traffic and AI-assisted execution in one contract. Look elsewhere if you want to start this month with a published price.
4. Otterly.AI
Otterly.AI is the affordable entry point. The Lite plan costs $29 a month, every plan covers 50+ countries and includes unlimited team members, and GEO audits check whether your pages are readable by AI. Otterly also tracks ads in ChatGPT and reports link citations, so a small team can see which pages AI uses as sources.
The included engines are ChatGPT, AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot. Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude are add-ons priced per plan, and Lite includes only 15 prompts. A 100-prompt program with both Google assistants costs $307 a month on Standard. Compare that with the alternatives in our Otterly.AI alternatives guide.
- Best for
- Small teams and consultants who want a low entry price, many countries and built-in GEO audits
- Entry price
- $29/month. Lite: 15 prompts. Standard: $189 for 100 prompts. Premium: $489 for 400 prompts. Extra 100 prompts cost $99. Free trial.
- AI engines
- ChatGPT, AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot included; Google AI Mode and Gemini cost $9 to $149 each per month by plan; Claude $29 to $439

Choose it if you need many countries and a low starting price. Look elsewhere if Google AI Mode and Gemini are core engines for your buyers.
5. 
AthenaHQ
AthenaHQ has the broadest model list in this guide: 11 models on its Starter plan, from ChatGPT and Google's surfaces to Grok, DeepSeek, Meta AI and Mistral. It works on credits, where one credit is one AI response, and adds a content optimization agent, on-page and off-page actions and integrations with Shopify, Webflow, Google Analytics and Search Console.
Credits make the price depend on your schedule. Starter's 3,600 monthly credits cover 50 prompts on four engines once a week with room to spare, but not every day: daily runs of that program need about 6,000 responses. That is my calculation from AthenaHQ's one-credit-per-response definition, not a figure the vendor publishes.
- Best for
- Teams that want the widest model list and content actions on a credit budget
- Entry price
- $295/month. Starter: 3,600 credits a month, where 1 credit is 1 AI response, unlimited topics and seats. A free Essential tier includes $25 of credit.
- AI engines
- 11 models on Starter, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, AI Mode, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, Meta AI and Mistral
- Data access
- CSV export; API access as an add-on
- Checked October 2026
- AthenaHQ pricing
Choose it if you sell into markets where Grok, DeepSeek or Mistral matter and want content actions included. Look elsewhere if you need daily tracking of a large prompt set at a fixed price.
6. 
Promptwatch
Promptwatch combines monitoring with content production. Plans track four models daily, include MCP and API access from the first tier and, from Professional, generate AEO articles each month. Agents for content gaps, content refresh and technical optimization sit on top of the tracking data, and Business adds state and city tracking, shopping insights and an ads radar.
Its prompt allowances match Peec's at the same prices: 50 prompts for $95 and 150 for $245. The difference is what the money buys: Promptwatch leans toward producing content, while Peec leans toward reporting.
- Best for
- Content teams that want monitoring and AI-written articles in the same subscription
- Entry price
- $95/month. Essential: 50 prompts, 1 project, 4 models. Professional: $245 for 150 prompts and 5 articles a month. Business: $579 for 350 prompts. 7-day free trial.
- AI engines
- 4 tracked models per plan from a list that includes ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, AI Mode, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek and Grok
- Data access
- MCP and API on every plan
- Checked October 2026
- Promptwatch pricing
Choose it if your team wants monitoring and AI-assisted articles from one vendor. Look elsewhere if you prefer to write content yourself and want deeper evidence for each recommendation.
7. Scrunch
Scrunch, listed as Scrunch AI in our index, targets brands and agencies that want to control how AI agents experience their site. Beyond monitoring by persona and citation tracking, its Agent Experience Platform serves a lightweight, AI-readable version of your pages to crawlers and agents. Every plan includes seven engines, from ChatGPT and Claude to Meta.
Prompt allowances are generous for the price: 350 custom prompts and 1,000 industry prompts on Starter. Seats are limited to three, with extra seats at $25 a month.
- Best for
- Brands that want persona-based monitoring and an AI-readable version of their site
- Entry price
- $300/month. Starter: 350 custom prompts, 3 personas, 3 seats ($250/month billed annually). Growth: $500 for 700 prompts. 7-day free trial without a card.
- AI engines
- ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews and Meta on all plans

Choose it if you want persona-level monitoring and a technical layer for AI agents. Look elsewhere if you need a lower entry price or a large team on one plan.
8. Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit
Semrush added AI visibility to the SEO suite many teams already use. The toolkit benchmarks your brand with an AI Visibility Score, compares competitor positioning, analyzes share of voice, sentiment and narratives, and adds prompt research with topic volume, difficulty and intent. An AI search site audit flags issues that block AI crawlers.
The tracking itself is narrow: 25 prompts on ChatGPT and Google AI Mode for $99, with 50 more prompts for $60. It works best as an extension of an existing Semrush workflow rather than as a standalone AI visibility program.
- Best for
- SEO teams already working in Semrush that want AI visibility next to keyword data
- Entry price
- $99/month. 25 tracked prompts, 1 project, prompt research and an AI search site audit. 50 more prompts cost $60 a month. No free trial.
- AI engines
- ChatGPT and Google AI Mode for prompt tracking and brand performance
- Data access
- 10 CSV exports a day
- Checked October 2026
- Semrush knowledge base
Choose it if your SEO team lives in Semrush and wants AI data next to keyword research. Look elsewhere if you need Gemini or Perplexity, or more than a few dozen prompts.
9. Ahrefs Brand Radar
Ahrefs approaches the problem from data scale. Brand Radar's AI Visibility Index draws on more than 481 million modeled monthly prompts based on Ahrefs' keyword database, so you can benchmark brand mentions and citations across six assistants without writing a prompt list. Custom prompts add your own buyer questions, and AI Sources tracks visibility in YouTube, TikTok and Reddit.
Modeled prompts are useful for market sizing and competitor benchmarking. They are less precise for the specific questions your sales team hears, which is why custom prompts are priced separately.
- Best for
- SEO teams that want market-level AI visibility from a large prompt database without building prompt lists
- Entry price
- €47/month. Custom prompt tracking starts at €47/month; the AI Visibility Index starts at €179/month with 2,500+ checks. Built on 481M+ modeled monthly prompts.
- AI engines
- AI Overviews, AI Mode, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot; Claude on the AI Visibility Index
- Data access

- Checked October 2026
- Ahrefs Brand Radar
Choose it if you want a market-level view inside Ahrefs. Look elsewhere if your priority is a deep investigation of a small set of high-value buyer questions.
10. Rankscale
Rankscale is a flexible tracker for analysts and agencies. It covers nine engines, lets you schedule checks from hourly to monthly and charges in credits that roll over. Pro includes 50 page audits, Looker Studio sharing and 10 brand dashboards; Growth adds white-labeled links and agency benefits.
Rankscale estimates about 0.25 credits per engine query. By that estimate, 50 prompts on four engines every day need about 1,500 credits a month, above Pro's 1,200, while the same program weekly needs about 215. Choose the schedule before you choose the plan.
- Best for
- Agencies and analysts who want many engines, flexible schedules and pay-per-check credits
- Entry price
- $99/month. Pro: 1,200 credits, about 4,800 engine checks. Pro+ $229, Growth $385 with white-label links. An Essentials tier starts at $17 billed yearly. 7-day free trial on Pro.

Choose it if you manage many brands and want to tune engines and schedules per client. Look elsewhere if you want a fixed monthly price for daily tracking.
11. 
Searchable
Searchable bundles monitoring, site audits and article production. Pro tracks 100 prompts per model, runs 200 site audits and produces 20 articles a month, and every plan includes agent analytics, AI shopping data and MCP. Scale adds Looker Studio, API access and white-label reports.
The included engines are ChatGPT, AI Overviews and Perplexity. Google AI Mode, Gemini, Claude and others are paid add-ons, so price the full engine set before comparing it with the $125 entry plan.
- Best for
- Teams that want monitoring, site audits and article production from one vendor

What a real AI visibility program costs
Entry prices are not comparable because each plan includes different engines and allowances. The table prices one common program instead: 50 buyer questions, tracked daily, on the four engines most buyers use. Where a tool cannot cover all four, the table says so.
| Tool | Plan and add-ons | Monthly cost |
|---|---|---|
| SupaIntent | Growth; all four engines included | $99 |
| Essential; 4 tracked models | $95Confirm that your four models can be these four. | |
| Starter with 3 models plus a 4th model add-on | $130Perplexity availability on self-serve plans changed in September 2026. | |
| Standard (100 prompts) plus AI Mode and Gemini add-ons | $307Lite's 15 prompts do not cover 50. | |
| Starter; 350 prompts, engines included | $300 | |
| Starter; 3,600 responses | $295+Daily runs need about 6,000 responses; extra credits are billed on top. | |
| Toolkit plus 50 prompts | $159Covers ChatGPT and Google AI Mode only. | |
| Enterprise | Custom |
These are list prices before annual discounts, taxes and negotiated terms, and the add-on costs come from each vendor's published table. Credit-based estimates for AthenaHQ use the vendor's own definition of a credit. The point is not the exact dollar figure: it is that engine coverage, not the headline price, decides what you pay.
Which AI visibility tool fits your team?
- A founder or small marketing team checking whether AI recommends them: start with a published-price tool and 30 prompts. SupaIntent Growth covers four engines for $99; Otterly.AI Lite is the cheapest way to see a first result.
- An in-house SEO team that reports monthly: Peec AI for a clean tracker with unlimited users, or Semrush and Ahrefs if you want AI data inside your current suite.
- A team that must explain a lost recommendation and fix it: SupaIntent, because the answer, competitor, cited source, technical check and action plan sit in one project.
- A content team that wants articles produced: Promptwatch or Searchable, which attach article generation to the tracking data.
- An agency with many clients: Rankscale for flexible credits and white-label links, Peec AI's agency plans, or SupaIntent Pro with white label and MCP.
- An enterprise with a strategic budget: Profound, Scrunch or AthenaHQ, depending on whether demand data, agent experience or model breadth matters most.
How to test a tool in two weeks
- Write 30 buyer questions before you open any tool: 10 category shortlists, 10 comparisons with named competitors and 10 use cases or objections your sales team hears.
- Load the same list into two or three tools from this guide, in the same country and on the same engines.
- After a week, pick one question where a competitor appears and you do not. In each tool, try to reach the original answer, the cited sources and a concrete next step. Time it.
- Compare the trends after two weeks. Large differences between tools on the same prompts usually come from sampling method, so ask each vendor how they collect answers.
- Choose the tool that produced a task your team actually started, not the one with the best-looking dashboard.
FAQ
What is an AI visibility tool?
An AI visibility tool sends a fixed set of buyer questions to AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Perplexity on a schedule. It records whether your brand is mentioned, in what position, with what sentiment, next to which competitors and with which cited sources, so you can see how AI answers about your category change over time.
Is GEO software different from an SEO rank tracker?
Yes. A rank tracker records the position of a URL in a list of links. A GEO or AI visibility tool reads a generated answer, so it measures mentions, recommendation order, sentiment and citations. Several SEO suites now include an AI module, but the underlying question is different: whether the assistant recommends your brand, not whether your page ranks.
How many prompts do I need to track?
Start with 30 to 50 questions that a real buyer would ask before contacting sales: category shortlists, comparisons with named competitors, use cases and objections. That is enough to see patterns in one market. Add prompts when you open a new segment, country or product line, not to inflate the total.
Which AI engines should an AI visibility tool cover?
Cover the assistants your buyers use. For most B2B and consumer categories in 2026 that means ChatGPT plus Google's AI surfaces (AI Mode, AI Overviews and Gemini). Perplexity matters in research-heavy categories, and Copilot in Microsoft-centric companies. Check whether each engine is included in the plan price or sold as an add-on, because add-ons change the real cost quickly.
Are AI visibility results accurate?
They are samples. AI answers vary between runs, accounts, locations and interfaces, and some tools query models through an API while others capture the consumer interface. Treat a single answer as an anecdote and look for patterns across many prompts, days and engines. Good tools let you open the original answer and its sources so you can verify a trend yourself.
Is there a free AI visibility tool?
Several vendors offer free trials or limited free tiers, including SupaIntent, Profound, Otterly.AI, Promptwatch, Scrunch, Rankscale, Searchable and AthenaHQ.
Methodology and sources
Checked in October 2026. Prices, allowances and engine lists come from each vendor's public pricing page, linked in its profile. Where a vendor does not publish plan details, as with Peec AI's pricing page and Profound's former self-serve plans, I used dated independent breakdowns and named them. Prices are monthly list prices before annual discounts and taxes. Vendors change plans often; check the linked page before you buy.
The AI recommendation ranking comes from SupaIntent's one-time study of the AI search visibility tools category, run in October 2026 and not updated since. It measures how often and how prominently AI assistants recommend a brand in answers to the same shortlist question. It does not measure product quality, accuracy or customer outcomes.
This guide is written by SupaIntent. Descriptions of SupaIntent cover features available to customers on the listed plans. Competitor descriptions use the vendors' own materials and cited sources; I did not test every product with a paid account, and no vendor paid for inclusion.
