Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit

Claim

Summary

Semrush's AI Visibility Toolkit is a paid add-on to the Semrush platform that measures how brands appear in AI-generated answers. It combines visibility scoring, competitor and prompt research, brand sentiment reporting and an AI-readiness site audit in one workspace.

Best for
existing Semrush SEO and Content customers who want AI-answer visibility added
Not for
teams whose only need is a dedicated, broad-coverage AI-visibility tool without an existing Semrush subscription, or anyone who needs Claude and Grok tracked on a self-serve plan
From
€94.94/month (about $106)€94.94 (about $106) monthly · €94.94 (about $106) billed annually
Free tier
PartlyNo standing free plan and, per the vendor's own KB, no free trial of the toolkit — a paid subscription is required. The only free route is the marketing-site AI Visibility Checker, a one-shot report on ChatGPT, Gemini, AI Mode and AI Overviews; the generic seven-day Semrush trial advertised on the feature pages requires card details.

Monitor your share of voice in AI answers over time.semrush.com/features/ai-visibility
Optimises your content
PartlyIt audits your site for AI-readiness and issues a prioritised fix list, but page-level content rewriting sits in the separately sold Content Toolkit, not in this toolkit.Make sure AI bots can actually access your content, flag technical issues, and get a prioritized checklist of fixes.semrush.com/features/ai-visibility
Generates content
PartlyThe AI Visibility Toolkit itself writes nothing; article generation lives in Semrush's separate Content Toolkit, which needs its own subscription on top of this one.Create engaging, SEO- and AI search-optimized content using Semrush data and AI generationsemrush.com/kb/812-content-toolkit
Publishes to your site

Access and integrations

API
PartlySemrush publishes a unit-metered API v3/v4 for SEO, traffic and project data, but no AI Visibility endpoint is documented; the pricing page reserves custom API work for Enterprise.Build with Semrush API v3 and v4.
