Alternatives

Alternatives to the main AI visibility platforms

One page per platform, each comparing the same set of tools on the same criteria, with every price and prompt figure carrying the date it was read on the vendor pricing page.

naia publishes these pages and appears in them, which is worth saying before you read further. The category is navigated through comparisons written by vendors: six of the seven most cited generative engine optimization listicles are authored by a platform that ranks itself in its own top three. What makes a comparison usable is not pretending otherwise, it is declaring the criteria, sourcing every number with a date, and stating where the publisher loses. Every entry in this set was revalidated on 2026-08-02, and each page states that date.

Pick the page that matches your reason for looking

Profound: Profound starts at US$ 99 per month billed yearly for 50 prompts on ChatGPT only, and the three engine plan is US$ 399 per month billed yearly. Teams usually start looking when they need more engines inside the plan, analysis in a language other than English, or coverage of a channel Profound does not track.

Otterly AI: Otterly has the lowest entry price in the category at US$ 29 per month, but Gemini and Google AI Mode sit outside every base plan and cost from US$ 9 to US$ 149 per month extra. The real bill depends on which engines you need, which is what sends teams looking.

Peec AI: Peec AI publishes annual plans in USD with daily collection: Starter is US$ 95 for 50 prompts, three models and one project; Pro is US$ 245 for 150 prompts and two projects; Advanced is US$ 495 for 350 prompts and five projects. Teams compare alternatives by monitoring unit, cadence, channel coverage, billing currency and execution workflow.

Semrush: Semrush sells AI Visibility Base separately from its SEO suite at US$ 99 per month billed annually for 25 tracked prompts on one domain. Semrush One starts at US$ 199 for 50 prompts and rises to US$ 299 for 100 and US$ 549 for 200. The reason to compare alternatives is fit, coverage or workflow, not a requirement to buy SEO.

The three questions that actually decide it

Which engines come included in the plan you would buy, not in the enterprise tier. An add-on charged per engine changes the real bill, and the cheapest sticker price in this category is not always the cheapest invoice.

Which language and market the analysis runs in. A prompt written in English does not measure what a Brazilian buyer types in Portuguese, and the answers genuinely diverge. Measuring in the wrong language is measuring a market you do not sell to.

Whether the tool ends at a dashboard. Measurement that does not produce the content and technical changes leaves the actual work with your team.

Generative engine optimization tools at a glance

This table was updated on 2026-08-02. Each row shows when its figures were last checked on the vendor's own pricing page. When a vendor publishes no number, the cell says so. A hole in the table is better than an estimate someone quotes back to us later as fact.

Do not read the volume column on its own. Promptado, Profound, Semrush, Peec and Otterly count prompts tracked on a recurring schedule. naia counts prompts per analysis, four analyses a month on the Autoridade plan. AthenaHQ counts credits, one credit per AI response. Collapsing those into a single ranking would look tidy and be wrong, so read volume next to cadence.

Evaluation criteria and suggested weights

These weights are a decision framework, not a score assigned to each vendor. Change them to match your market before choosing a plan.

Engine coverage included in the plan30%

An engine charged separately changes the real bill. This counts what ships in the plan, not what sits on a roadmap.

Prompt volume per entry price25%

Normalised by distinct prompt rather than by response, because re-running the same prompt does not widen coverage.

Collection cadence20%

AI answers move between runs. More frequent collection catches the shift sooner.

Language and market of the analysis15%

A prompt written in English does not measure what a Brazilian buyer types in Portuguese, and the answers diverge.

Execution beyond measurement10%

Measuring without fixing leaves the actual work with your team.

Frequently asked questions

Do these pages only recommend naia?+

No. Each page states where the target platform remains the right call and where naia does not fit. naia Autoridade commercially includes four complete analyses per month and its configurable automations draw credits. Profound, Otterly, Peec, Promptado and Semrush publish recurring collection inside the compared plans, which can be the clearer buy when that included cadence is the deciding factor.

How current are the prices?+

Every entry in this set was revalidated on 2026-08-02. Pricing in this category changes often, so check the vendor page before deciding. Where a vendor does not publish a number, these pages say so instead of estimating one.

Can I compare prompt counts across vendors directly?+

No, and it is the most common error in this category. Profound, Semrush, Peec and Otterly count prompts tracked on a recurring schedule, naia counts prompts per analysis, and AthenaHQ counts credits where one credit is one AI response. Read volume together with cadence.
