What it does

Monitors AI answers
YesIts RAIVE engine queries seven AI systems on a per-plan schedule and returns a 0-100 visibility score per system, so watching what engines say about a brand is the core product rather than a side feature.Otterly monitors 4 AI systems; Profound monitors 3. RAIVE monitors all 7 simultaneously, revealing cross-platform divergences partial tools miss…rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Optimises your content
PartlyOptimisation insights for existing and new articles are a paid step up: the plan table leaves 'Intelligent insights' and 'Advanced authority detection' off the entry Essential tier and switches them on from Professional and Business respectively.Intelligent insights for article generation & optimizationrankfender.com/en/pricing
Generates content
YesThe Content Engine writes full long-form articles through an eight-phase pipeline, metered per plan at 5, 15 or 30 articles a month with a 4,000-word cap on the entry tier.RCGE is not a writing assistant. It's an autonomous 8-phase pipeline that researches, drafts, quality-checks, and publishes content engineered to…rankfender.com/en/features/content-engi…
Publishes to your site
YesFinished articles are pushed live from inside the tool to WordPress, Shopify or Wix, and any other CMS through configurable webhooks; the pricing table marks both WordPress and non-WordPress CMS publishing as included on every tier.Yes. Rankfender supports one-click publishing to WordPress, Shopify, and Wix. You can also connect any CMS via webhooks.rankfender.com/en/pricing
Technical AEO
YesTechnical AEO work appears on both sides of the product: the article pipeline applies schema markup and canonicals automatically, and the vendor publishes free llms.txt, robots.txt and schema checking tools for AI crawlers.Auto meta tags, canonical, schema markup, and internal link suggestions applied. RCGE also generates FAQ schema, HowTo schema where relevantrankfender.com/en/features/content-engi…
Done-for-you service
NoRankfender sells software a buyer operates themselves; the agency-facing tier adds multi-client management, white-label reports and an account manager rather than people doing the visibility or content work for you.Custom pricing for agencies managing multiple clients at scale.rankfender.com/en/pricing

Answer engines

ChatGPT
YesChatGPT is named first in the vendor's list of monitored systems and gets its own visibility score, with the page claiming coverage of training-data mentions, browsing citations and plugin presence.Rankfender monitors 7 major AI systems simultaneously: ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Gemini Pro, Claude 3, Perplexity (with real-time web), DeepSeek, Grok, and…rankfender.com/en/pricing
Perplexity
YesPerplexity is one of the seven monitored systems and is the one the vendor describes in citation terms, measuring citation position and source domain authority in its answers.Rankfender monitors 7 major AI systems simultaneously: ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Gemini Pro, Claude 3, Perplexity (with real-time web), DeepSeek, Grok, and…rankfender.com/en/pricing
Gemini
YesGemini is in the monitored set, and the engine page claims coverage of several Google surfaces at once rather than a single chat endpoint.Track brand presence across all Gemini surfaces simultaneously: AI Overviews in Search, Knowledge Graph entries, Workspace integrations, and Shopping…rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Google AI Overviews
YesGoogle AI Overviews are covered as one of the Gemini surfaces the engine tracks, so coverage comes through the Gemini score rather than as a separately priced engine.Gemini spans five Google surfaces simultaneously: AI Overviews, Knowledge Graph, Workspace, Shopping, and YouTube.rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Google AI Mode
NoThe vendor enumerates the five Google surfaces it covers and Google's AI Mode is not among them; it appears nowhere on the site or docs.Gemini spans five Google surfaces simultaneously: AI Overviews, Knowledge Graph, Workspace, Shopping, and YouTube.rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Claude
YesClaude is one of the seven systems with its own score, and the engine page describes analysing how it frames the brand inside reasoning chains.Rankfender monitors 7 major AI systems simultaneously: ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Gemini Pro, Claude 3, Perplexity (with real-time web), DeepSeek, Grok, and…rankfender.com/en/pricing
Microsoft Copilot
NoMicrosoft Copilot is absent from the vendor's enumerated list of the seven systems it monitors; Copilot appears on the site only as market context about AI adoption, never as something Rankfender tracks.Rankfender monitors 7 major AI systems simultaneously: ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Gemini Pro, Claude 3, Perplexity (with real-time web), DeepSeek, Grok, and…rankfender.com/en/pricing
Grok
YesGrok is in the monitored seven, and the vendor markets its X/Twitter real-time signal as a distinct reason to watch it.Rankfender monitors 7 major AI systems simultaneously: ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Gemini Pro, Claude 3, Perplexity (with real-time web), DeepSeek, Grok, and…rankfender.com/en/pricing
DeepSeek
YesDeepSeek is one of the seven named systems; note the entry Essential plan monitors only 5 LLMs, so which five a buyer gets on the cheapest tier is not stated.Rankfender monitors 7 major AI systems simultaneously: ChatGPT (GPT-4o), Gemini Pro, Claude 3, Perplexity (with real-time web), DeepSeek, Grok, and…rankfender.com/en/pricing
Meta AI
PartlyWhat the vendor monitors is Meta's Llama models and their fine-tune ecosystem, not the consumer Meta AI assistant; the seventh slot is described as model-level auditing, so Meta AI as a product is not evidenced.Audit brand visibility not just in Meta's reference deployments but across the entire Llama fine-tune ecosystem — thousands of enterprise systems…rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Coverage in the vendor’s words
YesThe vendor states a closed set of seven systems and meters access to them by plan: 5 LLMs on Essential, 7 on Professional, 10 on Business and all current and future systems on the custom Agencies tier — so the headline seven is not what the cheapest plan delivers.LLMs monitored | 5 | 7 | 10 | Unlimitedrankfender.com/en/pricing

What it reports

Names the cited sources
PartlyIt reports citation rate and the position your brand holds among cited sources, plus domain authority of Perplexity sources, but nowhere promises a list of the third-party domains and pages engines cite instead of you.Citation rate and citation position tracking (1st, 2nd, 3rd source cited)rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Competitor tracking
YesRivals are auto-detected from monitoring data and benchmarked head-to-head per engine, with share of voice and win/loss shown by system rather than only as an average.Rankfender runs the same queries against you and your competitors across all 7 AI systems — giving you a per-platform win/loss breakdown, not just an…rankfender.com/en/features/competitor-t…
Brand sentiment
YesSentiment is one of the four scoring factors and is broken out per platform, alongside a positioning matrix that maps which attributes each engine attaches to the brand against rivals.Sentiment polarity breakdown: positive / neutral / negative per platformrankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
Recommendations
YesThe product does not stop at reporting: a weekly strategist output names the topics and battleground queries to act on, and those briefs feed the article pipeline directly.Strategist agent consumes this competitive intelligence each week and generates prioritized content playbooks: the exact topics to address to close…rankfender.com/en/features/competitor-t…
AI crawler analytics
NoInbound data comes from Google Search Console, GA4, Bing Webmaster and DataForSEO only; no AI-bot log or crawl analytics is offered.Rankfender ingests data from four major sources every dayrankfender.com/en/features/integrations
Wrong answers about you
YesEvery assertion an engine makes about the brand is captured and graded for accuracy, which is how the product surfaces false or stale AI claims rather than only absence of mentions.Citation accuracy scoring: correct vs. outdated vs. inaccurate AI claimsrankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine

Plans and signing up

Prompt or credit allowance
YesVolume is metered on two axes per plan — tracked prompts and AI responses a month — starting at 15 prompts and 300 responses on Essential and rising to 80 prompts and 5,000 responses on Business.15 AI prompts trackedrankfender.com/en/pricing
Projects or brands
PartlyMore than one brand needs a step up: the entry plan is a single brand on one domain in one language, Professional allows two and Business five or one brand in up to five languages.1 Brand (1 domain · 1 language)rankfender.com/en/pricing
Countries
PartlyScans are calibrated per language and region and keyword data is analysed across languages, but the entry plan is locked to one language and multi-language coverage only arrives on Business or above.RAIVE identifies the target language, regional context, and AI system locale settings for each scan.rankfender.com/en/features/raive-engine
How often it checks
YesCheck frequency is a plan lever rather than a fixed cadence: weekly on Essential, every two days on Professional, daily on Business and daily or near-real-time on the Agencies tier.Monitoring frequency | Weekly | Every 2 days | Daily | Daily / Real-timerankfender.com/en/pricing
Card required to start
NoSigning up for the seven-day trial needs no payment details, and the vendor repeats the claim both in the FAQ and as a line under the closing call to action.Yes. All plans come with a 7-day free trial with full access to all features. No credit card required to start.rankfender.com/en/pricing
Self-serve signup
PartlyThe three published plans are self-signup through the trial button with no sales contact, but the Agencies tier is quote-only and reachable only by booking a demo.Custom·rankfender.com/en/pricing

Access and integrations

API
YesA REST API plus webhooks is documented for pulling data into your own stack, and the plan comparison marks 'Webhooks & custom API' as included on every tier including Essential.Connect Rankfender to your stack with our REST API, webhooks, and native integrations.docs.rankfender.com/en/docs
MCP server
NoThe vendor states its automation surface as REST API, webhooks and native integrations; no MCP server appears anywhere on the site or in the docs.Connect Rankfender to your stack with our REST API, webhooks, and native integrations.docs.rankfender.com/en/docs
BI export
PartlyReport data leaves the platform as PDF, CSV or through API endpoints and the vendor frames that as BI integration, but no native Looker, Power BI or warehouse connector is published.Yes. All report data can be exported in PDF, CSV, and through API endpoints for integration with your existing business intelligence tools.rankfender.com/en/features/reports-anal…
