The neutral index of AI-visibility & GEO tools

Summary

CiteMentor is an AI visibility platform built around three modules: visibility intelligence across answer engines, a site scan that ranks issues by severity, and an Optimize module that turns findings into prioritised fixes. It is sold per brand to agencies.

Best for
Agencies tracking AI citations across multiple client brands from one dashboard
Not for
Solo bloggers or bootstrapped startups who want to try before they buy: there is no free trial, no self-serve signup, and pricing is quote-only, so evaluating CiteMentor means booking a sales call first.
From
$300/monthbilled monthly
Free tier
PartlyThe pricing page publishes no free option: the only two plans are $300 and $500 per brand per month. The Terms of Service separately describe a free plan allowing analysis of up to 5 websites per month with basic AEO, AIO and GEO scores, and a 14-day money-back guarantee on new Pro subscriptions — neither of which appears on the pricing page.
