Summary
Aethon AI is an AI visibility platform built on "life moments" (the situations buyers describe to assistants) rather than keyword prompts. It pairs simulated answer tracking with a managed execution layer that drafts and ships the content and schema fixes.
- From
- $199/month$199 monthly · $159 billed annually
- Free tier
- PartlyNo free or trial tier of the platform: the vendor states plainly that it does not offer one. What is free is the GEO Grader baseline tool (no signup, no credit card, repeatable) and a one-off manual AI visibility audit across the four assistants, emailed within 2 business days and walked through on a 30-minute call.
What it does
- Monitors AI answers
- YesRuns mapped buyer moments as simulated conversations on all four assistants on a schedule, logging whether the brand is named, its position and the framing.
We continuously simulate moment-driven conversations and capture exactly how each platform answers.
aiaethon.com/product - Optimises your content
- PartlyDiagnoses why an answer skipped you (missing page, contradicted fact, citation gap) and returns ranked fixes, but the Action Engine only starts on the $399 Pro plan; Starter is monitoring alone.
when tracking finds a moment where assistants skip you, it traces the cause, a missing answer page, a contradicted fact, a citation gap, and…
aiaethon.com/action-engine - Generates content
- PartlyThe vendor will draft the content itself, but only through the Action Engine: Pro is capped at 12 briefs a month and unlimited drafting arrives on the $799 Business plan.
Aethon can write the content too, behind brand and legal review queues.
aiaethon.com/product - Publishes to your site
- PartlyAethon will publish and distribute approved drafts on your behalf, but nothing ships until you approve it and no CMS integration or connector is named anywhere on the site.
Publishes the fixes: content, schema, citations and coverage
aiaethon.com/product - Technical AEO
- PartlySchema generation is an Action Engine capability, so it needs Pro or above; a free llms.txt generator and a robots.txt crawler-access check in the free audit sit outside the plans.
JSON-LD, FAQPage, HowTo, Product. The signals models parse.
aiaethon.com/product - Done-for-you service
- YesExecution by Aethon's own people is part of the subscription rather than a separate retainer, with a strategist, monthly working review and quarterly business review on the upper plans.
Teams without capacity let us ship the work as part of the plan.

Answer engines
- ChatGPT
- YesChatGPT is one of the four assistants simulated on every plan including the $199 Starter tier, with no engine gated behind a higher tier.
All plans: unlimited seats · ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude & Perplexity included · cancel anytime on monthly billing
aiaethon.com/pricing - Perplexity
- YesPerplexity is queried through its public interface and API as one of the four assistants the vendor simulates for every workspace.

aiaethon.com/security - Gemini
- YesGemini is covered on all plans, and the vendor commits to re-baselining tracked moments within 48 hours of a major model update on any of the four.

aiaethon.com/faq - Google AI Overviews
- PartlyA dedicated page states Google AI Overviews are monitored, but the pricing page, the main FAQ and the security page all enumerate coverage as the four assistants only, and no plan row mentions Google's AI surfaces.
Yes, alongside ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity, with the execution work included to win the citations that shape the box.
aiaethon.com/ai-overviews-tracker - Google AI Mode
- PartlyGoogle AI Mode is described as tracked "signals" alongside the four assistants on its own landing page, yet it appears in no plan feature list and the vendor's coverage answer elsewhere names only four platforms.
Aethon tracks AI Mode signals alongside ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity.
aiaethon.com/ai-mode-tracking - Claude
- YesClaude is tracked continuously beside the other three assistants, so Anthropic model transitions show up in the customer's own moment data.
Aethon tracks Claude alongside ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity continuously, so model transitions show up in your data instead of your pipeline
aiaethon.com/geo-and-aeo-for-claude-fab… - Microsoft Copilot
- NoMicrosoft Copilot appears in none of the vendor's coverage statements: the tracking inventory is stated as exactly four assistants on the pricing page, the FAQ, the security page and the Grok guide.
Aethon's continuous tracking covers ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity.
aiaethon.com/geo-and-aeo-for-grok - Grok
- NoThe vendor answers this directly and twice: Grok is not tracked, and it offers a manual fifteen-minute monthly spot-check instead, with tracking only a roadmap case.
Today the platform tracks ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity, and the manual check above covers Grok in minutes; if its decision share grows, so…
aiaethon.com/geo-and-aeo-for-grok - DeepSeek
- NoDeepSeek is named nowhere on the site, and the vendor's answer to which platforms it covers is a closed list of four that does not include it.

aiaethon.com/faq - Meta AI
- NoMeta AI is absent from every engine list the vendor publishes, including the per-plan inventory that states which assistants each subscription includes.
All plans: unlimited seats · ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude & Perplexity included · cancel anytime on monthly billing
aiaethon.com/pricing - Coverage in the vendor’s words
- YesCoverage is a flat four assistants on every tier with no engine used as an upsell, and re-baselining inside 48 hours when any of them ships a major model release.

What it reports
- Names the cited sources
- YesEvery logged answer carries the sources behind it, and the citation map is presented per assistant rather than pooled into one score.
Mention rate and first-recommendation rate on your money moments, share of voice against named competitors, sentiment drift, and the citation map…
aiaethon.com/ai-visibility-tracking - Competitor tracking
- YesCompetitor mention tracking is included from the entry plan, and losing a moment shows which rival brand replaced you; diff dashboards are a Pro addition.
Competitor diff When you lose a moment, see exactly which brand replaced you and why.
aiaethon.com/product - Brand sentiment
- YesEach simulated run logs sentiment and how the model frames the brand, and sentiment drift is reported per assistant over time.
simulated continuously across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity with position, sentiment, and the recommended brand logged each run
aiaethon.com/pricing - Recommendations
- PartlyFindings arrive as specific prioritised actions rather than a score, but that ranked plan is the Action Engine, which the entry Starter plan does not include.
Every losing moment in your map arrives paired with a specific, prioritized action: the comparison page that needs to exist, the outdated pricing a…
aiaethon.com/action-engine - AI crawler analytics
- NoNo plan includes AI bot log or crawl analytics; the free audit checks whether crawlers are blocked in robots.txt, and the vendor tells readers to build the AI traffic view in their own GA4 and Search Console.
Your existing stack covers it: analytics segments, Search Console, a form field, and CRM tags. The missing piece is usually the upstream…
aiaethon.com/ai-traffic-analytics - Wrong answers about you
- YesTracking flags a wrong fact appearing in an answer as movement worth alerting on, and the Action Engine routes contradicted facts and misdescribing profiles into entity corrections.
it flags real movement: a competitor entering your moments, a wrong fact appearing, a citation you relied on going stale

Plans and signing up
- Prompt or credit allowance
- YesPlans meter in tracked "moments" rather than prompts: 50, 250 and 600 across the three published tiers, each run in several phrasings on four assistants.
Starter is $199 a month: 50 tracked moments, all four platforms, weekly digest. Pro is $399: 250 moments plus the Action Engine and drift alerts.…
aiaethon.com/faq - Projects or brands
- PartlyStarter covers one industry and Business adds multi-segment tracking, but separate workspaces for several brands are an Enterprise item on a custom quote.
Multi-brand, multi-industry, custom everything.
aiaethon.com/pricing - How often it checks
- YesSampling is continuous against a fixed question set, with a weekly presence digest on every plan, real-time drift alerts from Pro and a re-baseline within 48 hours of a major model release.
the real questions your buyers ask, in several natural phrasings each, run through ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity on a schedule
aiaethon.com/ai-visibility-tracking - Card required to start
- NoThe free GEO Grader takes no card and no signup, and the free audit asks only for a name, work email and website; there is no paid trial to card-gate.
Yes, and it does not require a credit card. It gives you the same baseline an early trial would show you, without the empty dashboard week.
aiaethon.com/aethon-ai-free-trial - Self-serve signup
- NoEvery plan button books a demo or a sales conversation, subscriptions start from an order form, and onboarding is a two-week founder-led process, so there is no way to buy unaided.
Each subscription has an initial term of twelve (12) months from the start date set on the order form.
