What it does

Monitors AI answers
YesIts whole purpose: brand-free buyer questions are put to the answer engines on a weekly schedule and every full response is stored, on all four paid plans.GEO Monitor asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews the questions your buyers ask, every week, and keeps every answer.directree.io/geo
Optimises your content
PartlyGEO Monitor never audits your own pages; the separate one-time SEO Content Build Pack crawls your public site and maps existing coverage, but it only proposes new complementary pages rather than changes to the ones you have.Your public pages are checked before we recommend complementary content.directree.io/seo-build
Generates content
PartlyThe monitoring plans write nothing; writing is sold separately as a one-time pack of 23 pieces at a $39 launch price, regular $79, delivered as files for you to review.The paid pack unlocks all 23 written pieces: landing pages, FAQ pages, docs content, and supporting articles.directree.io/seo-build
Publishes to your site
NoNothing is pushed live anywhere: the monitoring product only reads engines, and the content pack explicitly ships as a ZIP download instead of connecting to a CMS.No. The Build Pack plans only new complementary pages. It does not rewrite your existing pages or require access to your CMS.directree.io/seo-build
Technical AEO
PartlyGEO Monitor itself does no schema, llms.txt or crawler-directive work and the vendor calls it a measurement tool; only the separate content pack ships JSON-LD alongside the pages it writes.JSON-LD structured datadirectree.io/seo-build
Done-for-you service
PartlyA human layer exists only from the $149 Managed plan upward, where directree writes the question set and emails a monthly summary; Starter and Pro get setup help but no ongoing service.directree writes and maintains the buyer questions and the competitor list, with setup done within 2 business days of subscribing.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor

Answer engines

ChatGPT
YesQueried on every tier including the free three-question check, which the vendor says runs the same ChatGPT model the Starter plan uses for its ChatGPT cells.ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviewsdirectree.io/geo
Perplexity
YesIncluded from the $29 Starter plan alongside ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, with no per-engine add-on charged on any tier.ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviewsdirectree.io/geo
Gemini
PartlyNot on the $29 Starter plan: Gemini arrives only at Pro and above, which the vendor states plainly as the difference between three engines and five.50 buyer questions across 5 engines, adding Gemini and Claudedirectree.io/geo
Google AI Overviews
YesGoogle AI Overviews is one of the three engines in the entry plan, so it is covered on every paid tier without an add-on.ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviewsdirectree.io/geo
Google AI Mode
NoGoogle AI Mode appears nowhere in the vendor's engine list: the named five are ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews, and the plan bullets count exactly five.Most tools publish a friendly entry price and then charge per engine. Pro and above include ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI…directree.io/geo
Claude
PartlyClaude is a Pro-and-above engine; a Starter subscriber at $29 does not get it, and the vendor sells no per-engine add-on to add it lower down.50 buyer questions across 5 engines, adding Gemini and Claudedirectree.io/geo
Microsoft Copilot
NoThe vendor names Microsoft Copilot as something it deliberately does not do, and points buyers at Otterly instead for that coverage.What we do not offer: daily scans, Microsoft Copilot, or an API.directree.io/geo
Grok
NoGrok is absent from the five engines the vendor enumerates for Pro and above, and no plan, add-on or docs page mentions it.Most tools publish a friendly entry price and then charge per engine. Pro and above include ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI…directree.io/geo
DeepSeek
NoDeepSeek is not among the five engines the vendor lists as included, and the plan bullets cap coverage at those five on every tier.Most tools publish a friendly entry price and then charge per engine. Pro and above include ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI…directree.io/geo
Meta AI
NoMeta AI is outside the enumerated five-engine set; the vendor sells engine coverage as a fixed list rather than as selectable add-ons.Most tools publish a friendly entry price and then charge per engine. Pro and above include ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI…directree.io/geo
Coverage in the vendor’s words
YesCoverage is stated as a closed five-engine list with an explicit tier split: three engines on Starter, all five from Pro upward, and no per-engine surcharge.Most tools publish a friendly entry price and then charge per engine. Pro and above include ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI…directree.io/geo

What it reports

Names the cited sources
YesCited sources are a headline feature, though Starter shows only the cited domains while full citation URLs and the missing-from gap list start at Pro.It reports whether your brand appeared, where it appeared, competitors named alongside it, and the citations the engine used.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
Competitor tracking
YesNamed rivals are tracked in the same stored answers, capped at three competitors on Starter and ten on Pro, Managed and each Agency client product.3 named competitors, email alerts and reportsdirectree.io/geo
Brand sentiment
NoNo attribute or sentiment analysis: the vendor's own inventory of what it reports stops at presence, position, competitors and citations, with factual errors handled separately by Accuracy Watch.It reports whether your brand appeared, where it appeared, competitors named alongside it, and the citations the engine used.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
Recommendations
PartlyStarter only reports. Pro adds the gap list of pages you are missing from, and Managed emails three recommended actions a month, but the vendor refuses to promise placement.Full citation URLs and the gap list of pages you are missing fromdirectree.io/geo
AI crawler analytics
NoIt never touches your site or its logs; the documented output is limited to engine answers, competitors and citations, so AI bot crawl data is not part of the product.It reports whether your brand appeared, where it appeared, competitors named alongside it, and the citations the engine used.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
Wrong answers about you
PartlyAccuracy Watch flags engines stating your facts wrongly, but it is withheld from the $29 Starter plan and only ships with Pro, Managed and Agency.Accuracy Watch: when an engine gets your facts wrong (Pro)directree.io/geo

Plans and signing up

Prompt or credit allowance
YesVolume is metered in buyer questions per product: 15 on Starter, 50 on Pro, 75 on Managed and 30 per client product on Agency, extendable in $19 blocks of 25.Add-ons are available on every paid plan from the dashboard: +25 questions per product for $19 a month and +1 product for $19 a month.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
Projects or brands
PartlyOne product per subscription by default; a second brand costs $19 a month as a dashboard add-on, and only the $299 Agency plan carries a roster of ten client products.Add-ons are available on every paid plan from the dashboard: +25 questions per product for $19 a month and +1 product for $19 a month.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
Countries
PartlyPlace is handled inside the question set rather than as engine locales, and city or region targeting is listed as a Managed-tier feature; several regions at once is a Custom quote.Local businesses get city or region targeting in their question set.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
How often it checks
YesWeekly on every plan by design, with one manual re-scan a month on Starter; anything more frequent than weekly is explicitly a Custom, priced-on-request setup.All plans scan weekly.directree.io/docs/geo-monitor
Card required to start
NoThe free three-question check runs with no account and therefore no card; there is no trial of the paid plans to attach a card to in the first place.Results are cached for 30 days per website, category or city, and the check is free with no account.directree.io/docs/geo-check-tool
Self-serve signup
YesStarter and Pro are named as self-serve and all four plans check out on the site with tax added at checkout; only the Custom tier requires emailing the vendor.Starter and Pro are self-serve.directree.io/pricing

Access and integrations

API
NoThe vendor lists an API among the three things it does not offer; the separate Directree Plus agent API reads and writes directory listings only and exposes no GEO Monitor data.What we do not offer: daily scans, Microsoft Copilot, or an API.directree.io/geo
MCP server
NoNo agent-queryable surface for monitoring data: GEO Monitor ships no API at all, and the company's separate listing API documents MCP as outside its beta.The beta does not provide browser cross-origin access or an OAuth/MCP connection flow.directree.io/docs/agent-api
BI export
NoData leaves the product only as email and Slack alerts, white-label reports and a print-to-PDF view; with no API there is no documented route into a warehouse or BI tool.What we do not offer: daily scans, Microsoft Copilot, or an API.directree.io/geo
