Searchly vs Jasper
Searchly tracks ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity from its $99 Starter plan, with AI crawler logs, GA4 AI visits, Search Console, AI shopping and the Agent included, and Pro adds Content Studio. Jasper keeps its GEO Hub, GEO API and GEO Agent for its custom Business plan.
Compared from Jasper's own pricing and documentation, checked Oct 21, 2026. How we compare
Our verdict
Our pick: Searchly
Searchly is the better choice for most teams. Its $99 Starter plan covers Google AI Overviews, which is not one of Jasper's GEO providers, and includes AI crawler logs, GA4 AI visits and AI shopping, none of which Jasper's public pages document. Jasper keeps GEO for its quoted Business plan, with a 12-month commitment and credits for every run, while Searchly's REST API, MCP server and Agent come at a published price.
| Searchly | Jasper | |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | $99 a month (Starter) | GEO on Business (custom, 12 months) |
| 50 prompts, 3 engines, daily | $99 a month | Quote plus credits; no Google AI Overviews |
| Engines on the entry plan | ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity | ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity, on Business |
| Site data on the entry plan | AI crawler logs once you connect a source, GA4 AI visits and Search Console | Search Console feeds the GEO Agent on Business; crawler logs and AI referrals not documented |
| Free trial | 14 days on Pro | None for GEO; a free GEO Diagnostic |
strengths
Where Searchly comes out ahead.
From each company's own pricing pages and documentation, checked Oct 21, 2026. Each point links to its source.
Where Searchly is stronger
- AI visibility tracking with the REST API, MCP server and the Agent from $99 a month on Starter. Jasper's GEO Hub, GEO API and GEO Agent come only with its quoted Business plan, and its MCP server names no GEO data tools. Source
- Google AI Overviews on every plan, Starter included, beside ChatGPT and Perplexity, with Gemini and Claude as add-ons at published prices. Jasper's four GEO providers, all on its quoted Business plan, leave out Google AI Overviews. Source
- AI crawler logs, GA4 AI visits and Search Console clicks for the same pages on the $99 Starter plan, with crawler logs collected once you connect Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, WordPress, Next.js or the HTTP API. Jasper's public pages document neither crawler logs nor AI referral visits, and its Search Console link feeds the GEO Agent on Business. Source
- AI shopping on every plan, Starter included: the products ChatGPT shows for your prompts, the brand behind each, with price, rating, retailer and rank. Jasper's GEO pages do not document product or shopping tracking. Source
Where Jasper focuses
- A brand-governed content suite from $69 a seat a month on Pro, which does not include the GEO tools. Source
- Gemini and Claude beside ChatGPT and Perplexity, Brand Accuracy checks and a GEO Agent linked to Search Console, all on Business at a quote, with 10 credits per provider for each query run. Source

pricing
The same workload, priced on both.
One brand, 50 buyer prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity, checked once a day in one country: a common base for AI visibility tracking. Every Searchly plan includes all three engines; where Jasper counts or includes engines differently, the note says so.
| Item | Searchly | Jasper |
|---|---|---|
| Covers the workload | Covers it | Not as specified |
| Plan | Starter | Business (GEO is not on Pro) |
| Monthly price | $99 | Quote, plus credits |
| Billed yearly | $990 a year ($82.50 a month) | 12-month commitment |
| The three engines | All three included | ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity; Google AI Overviews is not a provider |
| Extra cost | None | Credits: 10 per query run per provider; the value of a credit is not published |
| Free trial | None on Starter; a 14-day trial of Pro ($239 a month after) | None for GEO; Pro's 7-day trial excludes it |
| What the plan counts | 50 prompts on 3 engines once a day: up to 4,500 runs in 30 days, the whole Starter allowance | About 45,000 credits a month for 50 prompts on three providers daily (est.) |
Jasper publishes neither a Business price nor the value of a credit, so the cost of this workload cannot be worked out from its public pages.
Prices before tax, in each company's own currency, as published on Oct 21, 2026. est. marks our arithmetic from published units. Units differ: Searchly counts runs, up to 4,500 in 30 days on 50 prompts.

How we compare. We read each company's own pricing page, documentation and changelog, noting the day we checked each one. A capability we could not find is marked Not documented; Not offered means the company's own pages say it is not part of the product. Both columns follow the same rules. We do not compare visibility scores between tools: engines, collection methods and formulas differ.
