Optimises your content
It identifies content gaps from prompt, SEO and competitor signals and recommends new pieces, but the docs describe no audit of pages you already have.

Generates content
An in-product AI content agent researches, structures and writes full articles in Markdown, with monthly allowances of one to six per plan.

Publishes to your site
Publishing happens through an outbound signed webhook with optional auto-publish, so you need a receiver on your CMS rather than a native integration.

Done-for-you service
A Done-For-You programme from $349/mo puts an Airefs strategist on strategy, articles and outreach, with a separate Brand Mentions service at $299/mo.
Strategy, monitoring, articles for your website, backlink outreach — run by an AI Search expert from the Airefs team.
ChatGPT
ChatGPT is the default answer source on every plan and runs with web search enabled so citations come back with the answer.
By default, prompts run in ChatGPT. The Google AI Overview add-on extends tracking to Google’s AI-generated search answers

Perplexity
Perplexity is named only as a roadmap candidate with no timeline; the vendor tracks ChatGPT and Google AI Overview today.
Will you add more AI platforms, like Claude or Perplexity? More platforms are on our roadmap. We don't have a firm timeline to share yet
Gemini
The platform inventory names ChatGPT and Google AI Overview only, and the Gemini assistant itself is not among the tracked surfaces.
Which AI platforms do you track? ChatGPT and Google AI Overview, both with web search enabled — the only mode that returns real citations.
Google AI Overviews
Google AI Overview tracking is a paid add-on on every tier, costing $10 to $30 a month on top of the plan price.
Add-on pricing: +$10/mo on Lite, +$20/mo on Pro, +$30/mo on Expert.

Google AI Mode
Google AI Mode is not among the tracked surfaces; the vendor's complete platform answer names ChatGPT and AI Overview only.

Claude
Claude is explicitly a roadmap item rather than a tracked engine, with the vendor declining to give a date for it.

Microsoft Copilot
Copilot is absent from the vendor's stated two-platform coverage, which it defends as a deliberate choice rather than a gap.
Why ChatGPT and Google AI Overview, and not other AI platforms? Two reasons. First, together they cover the large majority of AI search usage…
Grok
Grok is not tracked: the engine inventory stops at ChatGPT and Google AI Overview on every published plan.

DeepSeek
DeepSeek is outside the two platforms the vendor says it tracks, and nothing on the pricing table adds it.

Names the cited sources
A Sources layer ranks every cited domain and URL by frequency and recency, and marks which belong to you versus competitors.
See every URL and domain that AI cites across your category, ranked by frequency and recency — including which ones are yours vs competitors.
Competitor tracking
Up to 20 competitors per site run on identical prompts in the same window, with a rank leaderboard and share-of-voice comparison.
When you add a competitor, Airefs runs your prompts for their domain too — so comparisons are always on identical queries in the same time window.
Recommendations
Beyond reporting it recommends articles, drafts discussion comments and builds backlink outreach lists tied to the gaps it measured.
Airefs then helps you close those gaps by surfacing the sources AI cites, finding discussion threads worth joining, and drafting articles — so you…

A month at 100 prompts
$99 a month on Expert for 100 tracked prompts. Prompts as the vendor counts them. Which AI engines check each one, and how often, depends on the plan. Lite, Agency might cost less, but no overage price is published, so it could not be priced past its allowance.
Billed monthly | $99/mo

Lite plan: 25 prompts. Pro: 60 prompts. Expert: 150 prompts. All plans track up to 20 competitors per site.

The Lite plan tracks 1 country; Pro and Expert include unlimited countries.

Enter your domain, add 3–5 competitor domains, and select the country market you want to track. You don’t need to install anything or verify ownership
API
There is no public API for reading visibility data; programmatic surfaces are an inbound log-ingestion endpoint and an outbound article webhook.
The generic log ingestion endpoint behind every Airefs integration. If your platform is not listed, any system that can POST JSON can use it directly.

Single sign-on
The vendor states plainly that buyers needing SSO should look at Profound; seats are invited by email instead.
If you need enterprise compliance (SOC 2, SSO, custom data contracts), look at Profound.

Security certifications
No certification is claimed anywhere, and the docs redirect buyers needing SOC 2 to a competitor instead.
