# Indexly — AI search visibility platform: tracks brand mentions and citations across major AI engines, plus content agents. > Source: CitedIndex — https://citedindex.com/indexly-ai (structured, researched, re-verified) > Facts last verified: 2026-09-01 Indexly is an AI search visibility platform that runs tracked buyer prompts against major AI assistants and records how each answer names and cites the brand. It also ships content agents, a technical AI-readiness audit, and Reddit and LinkedIn presence tools. | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Website | https://indexly.ai | | Price | from $99/month billed monthly, $83/month billed annually | | Free trial | Partly | Not published. The CTA across the site is 'Start Free Trial' and nine feature pages say 'Free to start', but the pricing page lists no free plan and states no trial length, prompt allowance or engine limit. The refund policy adds that a cancelled account keeps 'Indexly FREE features', which reads as a persistent free set rather than a trial. ## What it does **Monitors AI answers** · Yes — Tracked prompts are re-run against the named AI engines and scored for mentions, description and competitors. > Indexly tracks your brand across the AI engines people use most — ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), Perplexity, Grok (xAI), Claude (Anthropic), and Google AI Overviews. > — https://indexly.ai/faqs · AI search visibility & tracking section, 'Which AI platforms does Indexly track?' **Optimises your content** · Yes — Existing published pages are scored against AEO/GEO patterns and queued by potential lift; Content Optimization is excluded on Starter and capped at 10 then 25 articles per month. > Every published page is scored against AEO and GEO patterns and cross-referenced with rank and AI citation share.
