12 tools, ranked. How we rank
The ranking
Editor’s pick
#1
FraseVerified
Content platform that researches, drafts, optimises and publishes pages, then tracks AI citations.
Best forcontent and SEO teams or agencies that want one subscription covering content briefs, AI-assisted drafting and daily AI citation tracking
VerdictFrase has expanded into an AI-visibility optimization platform, and citation tracking now ships from the $39/mo Starter plan (ChatGPT and Google AI) rather than being Professional-gated. Multi-engine coverage still scales with tier: Perplexity on Professional ($103+/mo), Claude and Gemini on Scale ($239+/mo).
- Price
- From $49/month
- Free to try
- 7-day free trial
- Watch for
- AI Visibility (GEO) tracking starts on Starter with two engines. Full five-engine coverage (adding Perplexity, Claude, Gemini) requires Scale ($239/mo billed yearly).
- Checked
- Oct 3, 2026
- #2
Writesonic
AI search visibility tracking plus AI article writing, site audits and an Action Center.
Best forMarketing teams and brands that already run SEO/content operations
VerdictAn enterprise-grade GEO platform that treats AI-visibility optimization as a first-class problem: tracks citations, ranks fixes by impact, audits AI-crawler access, and agents content to add FAQ blocks and citation-friendly passages. The deepest technical GEO layer in this index. Starter $79/mo billed annually, Growth $399/mo, full 10-platform visibility at custom-priced Enterprise.
- Price
- From $99/month
- Free to try
- 7-day free trial
- Watch for
- Full multi-platform AI-visibility tracking (Perplexity, Claude, Grok, DeepSeek, Copilot, Meta AI, Google AI Mode) is gated behind the custom-priced Enterprise tier.
- Checked
- Sep 2, 2026
- #3
Surfer
AI visibility tracking across five answer engines, joined to content auditing, drafting and optimisation.
Best forContent and SEO teams already optimizing articles at volume who want AI-answer visibility tracking bolted onto an existing Surfer subscription
VerdictA mature content-optimization platform that extended into AI-answer visibility: AI Tracker monitors ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode and Gemini on a schedule, and optimization recommendations flow into the article editor. Best for teams already writing at volume. Plans Discovery €49/mo (about $55) through Enterprise €999/mo (about $1,120), with AI Tracker standalone €158/mo (about $177).
- Price
- From €59/month (about $66)
- Free to try
- 7-day free trial
- Watch for
- AI prompt tracking is excluded from the Discovery tier and starts at 25 prompts/week (ChatGPT only) on Standard.

- Oct 9, 2026
- #4
Rankscale
Credit-based AI visibility platform tracking brand mentions, citations and sentiment across 17+ AI engines.
Best forEnterprise marketing teams and agencies that need broad AI-engine coverage plus MCP access
VerdictBroad AI-engine coverage (17+ engines globally) and enterprise customers, with optimization recommendations tied to citation impact. Credit-based pricing gets expensive fast, but the breadth and depth of multi-LLM tracking is unmatched for enterprises. Pro at $99/mo is the first displayed self-serve tier.
- Price
- From $20/month
- Free to try
- 7-day free trial
- Watch for
- No GA4 or analytics integration for connecting AI visibility to traffic or revenue
- Checked
- Sep 30, 2026
- #5
Peec AI
Tracks brand visibility, position and sentiment in AI answers, with source, competitor and crawler reporting.
Best formid-market marketing teams and agencies running AI-visibility programs
VerdictThe strongest mid-market pick for a focused GEO program: citation-source mapping is granular, pricing is straightforward (€70 (about $78)–€360/mo (about $403)), and the product is built GEO-first rather than tacked onto a SEO platform.
- Price
- From €85/month (about $95)
- Free to try
- 7-day free trial
- Watch for
- Free trial length is not published on the pricing page (the existing record assumed seven days; verify before citing a specific number).

Canonry
AI search visibility tracking plus AEO delivery, as an open-source platform, agency products and managed service.
Best fordeveloper-led or privacy-conscious teams and agencies that want a free, self-hosted AEO stack they can drive from Claude Code or Codex
VerdictThe self-hosted, agent-native alternative to this category's paid SaaS dashboards. Free and source-available, and the only tool here that closes the loop from audit to fix. Budget real setup time (your own API keys, a Node.js runtime) and note the license restricts building a competing hosted product for two years per release.
- Price
- Free
- Free to try
- Free plan
- Watch for
- No first-party hosted dashboard for solo users; the only managed or hosted options (Embedded, Custom, Managed, White-label AEO) are scoped and custom-quoted for agencies, not individuals.
- Checked
- Oct 3, 2026
- #7
GEORankHub
Free GEO workbench: page diagnostics, JSON-LD and llms.txt generators, keyword expansion and 30/60/90-day plans.
Best fordevelopers and GEO researchers
VerdictThe only free, open-source listing in this index built around diagnostic and content-generation tooling rather than continuous citation tracking. A real page diagnostic, JSON-LD/llms.txt generators, and a Claude Agent Skill for running a self-hosted instance from an AI agent, backed by a 28-article tutorial library. The hosted demo requires a Chinese mobile phone number, so most non-Chinese buyers self-host via Docker Compose.
- Price
- Free
- Free to try
- Free plan
- Watch for
- No individual maintainer or company name is stated beyond the GitHub handle 'yaojingang', no LinkedIn or company page was found to independently verify the operator's identity.

- Sep 19, 2026
- #8
auto-geo
Open-source CLI that audits, generates and rewrites pages for AI-search citation, then measures engine citations.
Best fordeveloper-led teams or solo marketers
VerdictThe free, open-source alternative to this category's paid dashboards. Useful for a CI-gated citation audit or a solo team's first measurement loop, but it has no UI, no Google AI Overviews coverage, and needs your own API keys, so budget-conscious technical teams are the fit, not marketing teams wanting a dashboard.
- Price
- Free
- Free to try
- Free plan
- Watch for
- Requires the user's own API key(s) for write/fix/check, OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity, Gemini and/or xAI, so real usage carries a small, variable per-run LLM cost on top of the free tool itself.
- Checked

DistribbVerified
AI SEO agent that researches, writes and publishes content, earns backlinks and tracks AI-engine citations.
Best forSaaS founders, agencies, and developer-led growth teams who don't want to run SEO, content writing, link outreach, and AI-visibility tracking as four separate vendor relationships.
VerdictAI SEO software that writes long-form articles, exchanges backlinks and tracks brand citations in ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI answers. Pro $97/mo billed yearly, Accelerator $495/mo billed yearly, no free plan and a 3-day free trial on both paid tiers. A hands-off content-production loop for small businesses and solo marketers rather than a monitoring dashboard.
- Price
- From $97/month
- Free to try
- 3-day free trial
- Watch for
- articles_per_day is set by the plan and not settable via the API. A PUT /projects/:id call that tries to change it is echoed back under "ignored" rather than written.

- #10
Rankability
AI search visibility tracking, site auditing and content optimisation for marketing agencies.
Best forAgencies and content teams needing all-in-one content creation, optimization and wide AI-platform tracking
VerdictAn all-in-one content, optimization and rank-tracking platform from Gotch SEO's founders, tracking eleven distinct AI-answer platforms per its own documentation. Broader named coverage than most competitors here. Growth $199, Scale $399, Agency $799 billed annually. No free trial or free tier.
- Price
- From $99/month
- Watch for
- AI-platform tracking relies on scheduled keyword-prompt scans rather than real user conversation data.

Cognizo
AEO platform tracking brand visibility in AI answers, with content generation and auto-publishing.
Best forMarketing teams and agencies that want AI-visibility monitoring bundled with real content production and are comfortable booking a demo.
VerdictAn AEO platform bundling AI-visibility monitoring with content production. Up to 9 named engines at Enterprise, 8 AI-optimized articles/month included from the $499/mo entry tier. Every tier is gated behind a demo call rather than self-serve signup.
- Price
- From $499/month
- Watch for
- No published pricing tier lets a buyer pay and start immediately. Every option, including the two with fixed prices, routes through a demo call.

Best forMarketing teams that want broad LLM tracking bundled with content production from a 2024-founded vendor.

Questions buyers ask
What is LLM SEO (GEO/AEO)?
LLM SEO (also called Generative Engine Optimization or GEO) refers to the practice of optimizing your content and technical setup so that AI models like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini cite your brand in their answers. Unlike traditional SEO, which targets search-engine result-page rankings, LLM SEO targets AI-generated answers. Tools in this category help you identify opportunities, optimize content structure and messaging, and track how your optimizations improve citations.
How is LLM SEO different from measuring AI visibility?
Measuring AI visibility (tools on our main pillar, "The best AI visibility tools") tells you WHETHER and HOW OFTEN AI engines cite you. LLM SEO (this page) is about IMPROVING those citations. The tools here include content optimization, citation-impact prioritization, and technical auditing to help you get cited more. Most organizations measure first (to know where they stand), then optimize (to improve).
What should I optimize to improve LLM citations?
Three main levers: (1) content structure, FAQ blocks, comparison tables, and self-contained paragraphs answer common questions the AI might cite you for; (2) topical coverage, write comprehensively on topics your audience asks AI about; (3) technical, ensure AI crawlers can access your pages, that schema is correct, and that robots.txt doesn't block indexing. Most tools on this page help with levers 1 and 3; measure with our monitoring tools to track the impact.
Do I need to choose between optimization and monitoring?
No. Most teams use a pair: one tool to measure (from our "AI visibility tools" pillar) and one to optimize (from this page). Some tools, like Frase and Writesonic, bundle both. Start by choosing your optimization strength (content operations vs. technical depth vs. broad engine coverage), then add a dedicated monitor if your tool doesn't include one.
Are there free or open-source LLM SEO / GEO tools?
Yes, three tools on this page are free and self-hosted: Canonry (source-available, audits AND executes JSON-LD/WordPress fixes, ships a 67-tool MCP adapter), GEOrank (Apache-2.0, a diagnostic and content-generation workbench with a Claude Agent Skill for agent-driven self-hosting), and auto-geo (MIT-licensed CLI that audits, generates, fixes and measures citations, CI-gateable). All three need your own AI-provider API key and real setup time in exchange for zero subscription cost, and none monitors Google AI Overviews as completely as the paid platforms above.
Is this the same as "AI content optimization tools"?
"AI content optimization," "LLM SEO," and "GEO" (Generative Engine Optimization) all describe the same practice, shaping content and technical setup so AI engines cite you, and vendors and buyers use the three terms inconsistently. Every tool on this page fits under all three names; if you searched for AI content optimization tools, this is the same comparison.
