Searchly and 22 AEO and AI visibility platforms, compared on what you can track, what evidence you can open and what you pay. For most teams the pick is Searchly. Its $99 plan opens the answer and citations behind every score and adds your own site data once you connect it; no other platform here documents AI crawler logs, AI referral visits and Search Console on its entry plan.
Compared from each vendor's own public pricing and documentation, checked from Oct 19 to Oct 26, 2026. Spotted an out-of-date detail? Email piotr@trysearchly.com.

| Criterion | What earns the points | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Full answer text | The full answer behind each result can be opened, and exported or read through an API (view only counts as partial) | 1 |
| Cited sources | Cited pages and domains per answer, with source analysis | 1 |
| AI crawler logs | AI crawler requests read from server, CDN or edge logs (a beta or a separate tool counts as partial) | 3 |
| AI referral visits | Human visits from AI assistants inside the product, from GA4 or the vendor's own script | 3 |
| Search Console | Search Console data inside the product (early access counts as partial) | 2 |
| Site audit | A multi-page technical or AI-readiness audit (homepage only counts as partial) | 1 |
| Ranked next steps | A prioritized list or queue of recommended actions | 1 |
| AI agent | An in-app agent that works on the product's data (a beta or a prompt helper counts as partial) | 2 |
| Criterion | What earns the points | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Published price | A public price for a paid plan; a partial or disputed price counts half | 2 |
| Entry price | Up to 100 a month in the vendor's currency: full; up to 150: three quarters; up to 300: half; up to 600: a quarter; higher, or no entry plan: zero | 2 |
| REST API | A documented API for the visibility data | 3 |
| MCP server | A documented MCP server for the visibility data | 3 |
| Data exports | CSV or spreadsheet exports of answers, prompts or citations | 1 |
| Free trial or free tier | A documented free trial or free tier on any published plan (unclear or stale terms count half) | 1 |
We weight site evidence highest because it shows whether AI reads your pages and sends people to them, which a visibility score alone cannot. We weight the API and MCP server highest on openness because they decide whether your data can leave the tool.
The map scores evidence and openness at entry; the tables below compare engines, cadence, content and buying terms.
We also scored the map with equal weights and with every capability whose plan a vendor does not state counted in full. Searchly stays closest to the top-right corner in both.

Vendors count different things, so headline prices do not compare. We priced one workload on every platform: 50 prompts checked every day on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity, for one brand in one country, billed monthly. That is up to 4,500 answers in 30 days.
| Platform | Plan | Price a month | What the plan counts | Fits the workload | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SearchlyOur pick | Starter | $99 | 50 prompts on 3 engines once a day: up to 4,500 runs in 30 days, the whole Starter allowance | Covers it | None |
| Searchly vs HubSpot AEO | Marketing Hub Enterprise (the standalone plan tracks 25 prompts a day) | Marketing Hub Enterprise (price on HubSpot's pricing page); the $50 standalone plan stops at 25 prompts | Standalone: 25 prompts a day and 2,500 answers a month; Marketing Hub Enterprise: 50 prompts a day and 5,000 answers | Not as specified | HubSpot's standalone plan stops at 25 prompts a day; 50 prompts come with Marketing Hub Enterprise, whose price is on HubSpot's pricing page. HubSpot shows no price for the AEO Answers Limit Increase. |
| Searchly vs LLM Pulse | Starter with daily tracking | EUR 79 | 50 prompts, 1 project | Covers it | Prices in EUR before VAT. Weekly tracking costs EUR 49 a month. |
| Searchly vs Meteoria | Pro (Starter has 25 daily prompts) | EUR 175 | 100 daily prompts; this workload uses 50 | Covers it | From Meteoria's French price grid. Its English site shows a different top tier (Businesses and Agencies from EUR 300). |
| Searchly vs OtterlyAI | Standard (Lite has 15 prompts) | $189 | 100 prompts; this workload uses 50 | Covers it | OtterlyAI shows the same numbers in USD or EUR depending on where you are; prices here are in USD. |
| Searchly vs Peec AI | Starter plus Perplexity as an extra model | About EUR 115(EUR 85 plus EUR 30), est. | 50 prompts and 4,500 answers a month on 3 models (1 answer = 1 prompt x 1 model x 1 day); how an extra model changes the quota is not stated | Covers it with extras | Without the extra model, Peec AI Starter covers only two of the three engines, ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, at EUR 85 a month.

This workload uses about 4,500 a month (est.); Growth has 10,000 | Covers it | Starter (EUR 79) plus a 2,500-credit pack (from EUR 109) comes to about EUR 188 in a month you top up (est.); credits roll over while you are subscribed. Prices exclude tax. |

| Searchly vs Scrunch | Core | $250 | 125 prompts and 5,000 responses a month; daily runs for this workload use about 4,500 (est.) | Covers part of it | Scrunch runs a new prompt daily for its first 14 days, then every 72 hours by default, with an on-demand refresh; at the default, this workload uses about 1,500 responses a month (est.). |
| Searchly vs SE Visible | Basic | $99 | 200 prompts shared across 3 projects; this workload uses 50 prompts | Covers it | Basic also includes Gemini and Google AI Mode. If Perplexity matters, confirm it with SE Ranking first. |

Prices exclude tax and are shown in the currency each vendor uses; we do not convert euros. Runs, responses, answers, credits, checks and tasks are each vendor's own unit and are not interchangeable.
A similar sticker price can leave out what you need. Promptwatch ($95), SE Visible ($99, with Perplexity to confirm) and Ahrefs Brand Radar (about $90 to $100, possibly plus an Ahrefs plan from $129) list a similar US dollar price. Rankshift (EUR 77, also listed as USD 92) and LLM Pulse (EUR 79) price it in euros; Peec AI is EUR 85 without Perplexity.
What Searchly's price includes: Starter has AI crawler logs from your host, Google Analytics 4 visits from AI assistants and Google Search Console clicks once you connect them, plus the REST API, the MCP server, Agent and AI shopping.

Prompt tracking across AI engines, with some site data, the API or AI shopping on a higher plan or not documented.

May suit you if…
you track many brands or countries on a short prompt list, want unlimited seats on the entry plan and measure AI visits in Matomo.
May suit you if…

May suit you if…
you run a complex or script-heavy site, have an Enterprise budget and want Agent Pages to control what AI agents read at the CDN.

you mainly need one prompt pool shared across several brands or client projects and handle site data and next steps in other tools.
Prompt tracking with article writing in the same product.
May suit you if…
you need monitoring on many more models plus a content agent that edits Shopify product content, and you can budget for response credits with extras priced by contact.
May suit you if…
publishing articles to WordPress, Webflow or Framer from the same tool matters more to you than AI crawler logs on the entry plan, and you can plan around a monthly response quota.
May suit you if…

you would rather hand the work to a vendor on an annual program, with onboarding, a content roadmap and 10 briefs and articles a month, at a price agreed on a call.

your security review requires SSO over SAML or OIDC and SCIM, and you are ready to negotiate an Enterprise contract to get them.

content production at volume is the main job and you want Playbooks, human review and publishing to many CMSs in one workflow tool, priced on a quote.
May suit you if…
you need GTM workflow automation for prospecting, inbound leads and account-based marketing more than a record of how AI answers describe your brand.
May suit you if…
you are a sales-led B2B business that would rather pay from $900 a month for pages written for you and published on Gushwork's own layer at /feeds or a subdomain than run AI visibility in-house.

brand-governed content production is the main job and you already pay for Jasper Business, the plan that includes GEO, and can budget for the credits each run spends.
why searchly
Searchly puts the evidence behind every score and your own site data on one published $99 plan. Here is what that means next to the alternatives.
Every score opens the answer behind it, with its date and citations. Any answer that fell back to an API is labelled and kept out of headline metrics.
AI crawler requests from your host, Google Analytics 4 visits from AI assistants and Search Console clicks sit beside the AI citations for each page once you connect them; Searchly installs nothing on your site.
The REST API and the MCP server come with every plan from the published $99 Starter plan up, so your data reaches your own reports and AI tools.
Agent answers questions about your AI visibility in plain language, opens the right page and proposes new prompts or competitors for you to confirm.
Opportunities ranks your next steps from the evidence, and Content Studio on Pro turns the content gaps it finds into full articles and writer briefs from verified sources.
Starter is $99 a month for 50 prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity. Pro is $239 a month for 150 prompts, adds Content Studio and starts with a 14-day free trial.
Your own site data from the first plan. Promptwatch starts AI crawler logs on Professional ($245), Qwairy on Business and LLM Pulse on Scale; Peec AI's Search Console view is in early access. No other platform here documents crawler logs, AI referral visits and Search Console together on its entry plan.
The REST API and the MCP server on every plan. Peec AI starts its API on Pro, OtterlyAI starts both on Standard, LLM Pulse puts its API on Scale and Profound keeps both for Enterprise.
A fixed prompt allowance, with no response quota or credits to run out. AthenaHQ counts response credits, Qwairy and Rankshift sell credits and Promptwatch stops monitoring when its monthly response quota runs out. Searchly Starter tracks 50 prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity; its allowance covers every run.
Published prices instead of a quote. AirOps, Bluefish, Brandlight and GetMint price every plan on request. Profound quotes its brand plans and Jasper sells its GEO features on Business for 12 months. Searchly's plans start at $99 a month.
AI shopping from the first plan. Promptwatch keeps Shopping Insights for Business ($579) and LLM Pulse for Scale. Scrunch, Profound and Meteoria keep shopping data for enterprise plans; Semrush sees products only as a results feature in Google AI Mode. Searchly Starter shows the products ChatGPT shows for your prompts, whose they are, their price, rating and retailer and where they rank.
method
Each vendor's own public pages: documentation first, then pricing pages, then changelogs and help articles. Where a vendor's pages disagree with each other, the mark says so.
A mark describes the cheapest plan that includes the feature in any version and that a buyer can start without a custom contract. A plain tick means it is on the entry plan; otherwise the line under it names the plan or the limit. Not documented means we could not find it in the vendor's public pages on the date we checked. Features sold only on a contract carry the lock.
We started from the platforms that other public comparisons of AEO and AI visibility tools list and added SE Visible from SE Ranking, 22 in all. Copy.ai's pages describe no AI-answer tracking and Gushwork is a done-for-you content service; both stay because buyers meet them in the same comparisons.
We do not compare visibility scores, because each vendor counts differently.
The positioning map scores every platform from the same records as the tables, on published criteria and weights. Its rubric and every score sit under the map.
Facts were checked from Oct 19 to Oct 26, 2026, and each source below shows its own date. Pricing pages change often, so we recheck before every update and move a date only when we recheck. To report a mistake, email piotr@trysearchly.com.
Product names and logos belong to their owners and appear only to identify each product.
Every page we used, with the date we read it.
