Best AI Visibility Tools (2026), With Every Price Read on One Day

Every figure on this page was read from the vendor's own pages on 2026-08-31, and each one carries that date beside it. Nothing here comes from a press release, a funding announcement or a third-party roundup. One disclosure before anything else: TriRank is ours, so it sits in its own section at the end rather than in the comparison order.

This is deliberately not a ranking. We did not run these products side by side, so we have no evidence that would support one — the honest thing a page like this can do is transcribe what each vendor commits to in public and stamp the day we read it. The order below is simply the lowest monthly price each vendor publishes, ascending. Where a cell says not stated, it means we could not find the claim on the vendor's own pages, not that the product lacks it.

We have covered this ground twice before, in best AI search visibility tools and best LLM SEO tools. Those are earlier lists, and their prices are as read then, in June 2026. Neither has been rewritten to agree with this page, because a reading is dated by when it happened and backdating one would destroy the only thing that makes it worth anything.

The comparison

Otterly.ai — $29/month

Otterly.ai monitors whether your brand and website appear across AI engines, with daily tracking on every published plan and prompt-based monitoring as the core unit.

It does not state that it reads your Search Console data, and it does not state that it writes or publishes anything.

Lite is $29/month, with Standard and Premium above it (otterly.ai/pricing, read 2026-08-29, not re-verified). On 2026-08-31 the page answered a human-verification challenge rather than a price, and we do not drive automated clients through those, so this figure is the older reading and is labelled as such. Engine add-ons and prompt packs sit on top of the headline.

Suited to a team that wants daily prompt tracking at the lowest published entry price. Our Otterly.ai alternatives roundup covers the same field from its side.

AI SEO Tracker — $79/month

AI SEO Tracker sells a one-time audit first and tracking second: a $49 one-time report covering one brand, seven days of daily scans and up to 50 prompts, with weekly monitoring available afterwards (aiseotracker.com/pricing, read 2026-08-31).

The subscription itself does not state that it writes pages; the vendor's page puts that in a separate agency service, priced from $1,999/month and described as humans rather than agents (aiseotracker.com/pricing, read 2026-08-31).

Basic is $79/month and Pro $199/month (aiseotracker.com/pricing, read 2026-08-31).

Suited to someone who wants to see the gap once, cheaply, before committing to a monthly line item.

Peec AI — $95/month, older reading

Peec AI describes itself as AI search analytics for marketing teams. Its plan matrix names Starter, Pro, Advanced and Enterprise, and describes prompt counts, model allowances and project limits for each.

Search Console is not among the integration rows on that page. Its pricing page lists Looker Studio, API access, MCP and single sign-on instead.

Here the figure is the awkward one: on 2026-08-31 the tiers, feature rows and limits are all in the page HTML and the prices are not. Our last browser reading, on 2026-07-20, showed Starter at $95/month (peec.ai/pricing). Treat that as the older number, because it is.

Suited to a team buying analytics depth rather than a published price. Our Peec AI alternatives piece goes through the same matrix row by row.

Profound — $99/month

Profound sells answer-engine analytics, with Answer Engine Insights, Prompt Volumes and Agent Analytics named on its own platform menu, and Profound Agents described for content generation.

Its capability list names ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, Claude and Google AI Overviews, with how many of those a plan tracks varying by tier.

Starter is $99/month and Growth $399/month, both billed yearly; Enterprise remains Custom (tryprofound.com/pricing, read 2026-08-31).

Suited to an organisation whose evaluation runs through procurement. Our Profound alternatives roundup is the longer version of this row.

Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit — $139/month plan, toolkit priced separately

Semrush answers its own FAQ on coverage plainly: the platform tracks ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, SearchGPT, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews, with daily prompt tracking and an AI Visibility Score benchmarked against competitors.

What its pricing page does not do is put a figure on the AI Visibility Toolkit itself. The page states that AI Visibility is purchased separately for each seat, and prices an add-on for extra team access, but the toolkit's own line is not stated.

The lowest published plan on that page is $139/month billed monthly, with three tiers above it (semrush.com/pricing/seo-ai-search, read 2026-08-31).

Suited to a team already inside Semrush, where the AI surface is one more panel next to the keyword work.

AthenaHQ — $295/month

AthenaHQ frames its product as acting on AI search rather than only reporting it, and prices in credits, with the page stating the unit outright: one credit is one AI response.

Free carries $25 of credit and 300 credits. Starter is $295/month, carrying $300/month of free credit and 3,600 credits, with visibility across ten models and CSV export; Enterprise is Custom (athenahq.ai/plans, read 2026-08-31). API access and extra credits are add-ons billed on top.

Suited to a team that wants a real free tier to try first and can model a credit-metered bill. Our AthenaHQ alternatives piece covers the credit unit in more detail.

Sitechecker AI Visibility Tracker — price not stated

Sitechecker's AI Visibility Tracker page describes three parts: AI traffic from GA4, Google AI Overview analysis on tracked keywords, and an AI brand monitor that generates prompts from your highest-volume search keywords.

For traffic it names ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Claude and DeepSeek; for brand monitoring it names ChatGPT, Gemini and other LLMs. Its feature list also carries a Search Console dashboard and a blended GA4 and Search Console report.

No price rendered in the page HTML we could read on 2026-08-31 (sitechecker.pro/ai-visibility-tracker). That is a statement about what we could fetch, not a claim that the vendor publishes nothing.

Suited to a team that already runs Sitechecker for crawling and rank tracking and wants the AI panel beside it.

TriRank — execution, not monitoring

TriRank is ours. It belongs in a different section because it is priced in a different unit, and because most of what it sells is work rather than a dashboard.

The measurement half looks like the tools above: a sweep across every engine on our roster, joined to your own Search Console data so the ranking half of a report is your figures rather than an estimate. The half that is not like them is what happens next — drafts are written and delivered into WordPress, Ghost or Webflow as drafts, and a person on your side reads and publishes them.

Pricing is in one-time units and one monthly one: a $69 market report, a $399 one-time audit, and $999/month per site for the done-for-you engagement (our pricing page and the audit page, current). The domain diagnostic is free forever and needs no account.

We also publish our own measurement instead of describing it: Google's generative AI report next to a citation sweep of the same site puts an export from a site that permitted it beside our own probes, with both denominators printed before the table.

What none of these pages tell you

Every vendor above publishes engine coverage and, mostly, a price. Not one publishes what you actually want to know before buying: whether anything you do afterwards moves the number. That is not a failing of any single page — it is a property of a market where the measurement is two years old. The practical consequence is that the cheapest honest first step is to measure your own domain before you subscribe to anything, which is what our free diagnostic does without an account.

FAQ

Why is this list not ranked?

Because we did not run these tools against each other, and a rank implies we did. Everything on this page was read off vendor pages on one day. That evidence can support what a tool says it does and what it charges; it cannot support an ordering by quality, and printing one anyway would dress a reading exercise up as a bake-off. So the order is the lowest monthly price each vendor publishes, ascending, which is a fact about their pages rather than a judgement about their products. TriRank is ours and sits in its own section at the end rather than anywhere in that order.

Why does every price carry a date?

Because a vendor price with no date goes quietly false. Pricing pages change without notice, and a figure that has been sitting in an article for four months looks exactly like one read this morning. Dating each figure also lets us be honest about the readings that are not fresh: one vendor's page answered a human-verification challenge rather than a price on the day we checked, and one publishes tier names without figures, so those two carry older readings and say so on the line. If a number here matters to a decision, open the linked page and read it yourself.

What is the difference between monitoring and execution?

Monitoring answers where you appear in AI answers today. Execution changes what is on the page and in the sources those answers are built from. Most of the tools here are monitoring, which is a complete product and not a criticism — measurement is what tells you whether anything moved. The distinction matters at purchase time because a monitoring subscription leaves the writing and publishing with your team, and if nobody on your side has that time, the dashboard will keep reporting the same position accurately for months.
