Promptwatch
AI search visibility tracking with crawler logs and content agents that publish to your CMS.
From $95/monthWhy it's on this listDone-for-you service · PartlySelf-serve tiers are software only; the quote-only Custom tier adds managed content workflows plus a dedicated success manager, which is the closest the vendor comes to doing the work for you.Source ↗
Where it improves on SEORCE
- +Google AI Mode · YesGoogle AI Mode is listed as its own model row alongside AI Overviews in the plan table and appears in the documented live-search group, so it is tracked separately from classic Gemini.Source ↗
- +Microsoft Copilot · YesCopilot is named in the documented registry of live-search platforms, although it is not one of the model rows printed on the public plan comparison table.Source ↗
Trade-offs against SEORCE
- −Generates content · PartlyContent Agents write new articles from citation data, but the entry Essential plan is sold with no article allowance at all; monthly AEO Articles start at five on Professional and ten on Business.Source ↗
- 02
Rankscale
Credit-based AI visibility platform tracking brand mentions, citations and sentiment across 17+ AI engines.
From $20/monthWhy it's on this listGoogle AI Mode · YesGoogle AI Mode is covered for visibility, shopping cards and sponsored placements, and appears in the vendor's engine inventory on every plan.Source ↗
Where it improves on SEORCE
- +Microsoft Copilot · YesMicrosoft Copilot is in the engine FAQ inventory and is also one of the three surfaces measured for sponsored ad placements.Source ↗
- +Meta AI · YesMeta's assistant is covered under the name Muse Spark, with a dedicated tracker page promising web-grounded runs, rankings and normalised citations.Source ↗
Trade-offs against SEORCE
- −Generates content · NoThe vendor's own feature document offers content recommendations on existing pages only; nothing in it drafts or writes new copy for you.Source ↗
- −Publishes to your site · NoNo CMS destination appears anywhere in the plan comparison or feature document; outbound paths are CSV, Google Sheets, Data Studio, REST API and MCP only.Source ↗
- 03
Qwairy
GEO platform that monitors brand mentions across AI engines and recommends content and technical fixes.
From FreeWhy it's on this listGoogle AI Mode · YesQwairy lists Google AI Mode (UI) in the engine inventory included on every paid plan, so tracking it needs no add-on; it is listed separately from AI Overviews and marked UISource ↗
Where it improves on SEORCE
- +Microsoft Copilot · YesQwairy lists Microsoft Copilot (UI) in the engine inventory included on every paid plan, so tracking it needs no add-on; the entry is UI-only rather than API-basedSource ↗
- +Meta AI · YesQwairy lists Meta AI (UI) in the engine inventory included on every paid plan, so tracking it needs no add-on; it is marked UI-only alongside Grok and CopilotSource ↗
Trade-offs against SEORCE
- −Publishes to your site · NoThe integration directory it calls complete covers search, analytics, crawler logs and reporting only; its WordPress entry forwards crawler requests rather than pushing content, and publishing is described as the customer's step.Source ↗
- −DeepSeek · NoDeepSeek appears nowhere in the eighteen-engine inventory included on all plans, and unlike every covered engine it has no visibility-tracker page in the sitemap; it is mentioned only in a glossary article.Source ↗
- −Self-serve signup · PartlyBrand plans are bought directly through Get started links with no sales contact, but every agency-programme tier, including its cheapest, routes to Talk to Sales instead.Source ↗
- 04
ApexGEO
GEO/AEO platform measuring brand mentions and citations across seven AI answer engines, with fixes and content.
From FreeWhy it's on this listMicrosoft Copilot · YesCopilot sits outside the seven core engines but the vendor states it is dispatched today alongside them.Source ↗
Where it improves on SEORCE
- +Competitor tracking · YesCompetitor benchmarking is a named capability and share of model is scored relative to rivals in the same view.Source ↗
- +AI crawler analytics · YesAI crawler fetches are classified per bot and each request's source IP is verified against the operator's published ranges.Source ↗
Trade-offs against SEORCE
- −Generates content · PartlyBrand-voice generation exists but the Content Generator is listed only from the Professional tier upward, not on Free, Starter or Growth.Source ↗
- −Meta AI · NoMeta AI is absent from the stated core inventory, from the Copilot addition, and from the named roll-out engines.Source ↗
- −How often it checks · PartlyWeekly is the default sweep and anything faster is sold as a paid add-on, which the vendor states beside the engine table.Source ↗
- 05
Rankshift
Credit-metered AI visibility, citation and crawler tracking with unlimited projects and seats.
From €77/month (about $86)Why it's on this listGoogle AI Mode · YesGoogle AI Mode is named as a distinct tracked platform alongside AI Overviews, and the credit calculator offers it as a selectable engine at two credits per run.Source ↗
Where it improves on SEORCE
- +Microsoft Copilot · YesMicrosoft Copilot is covered and, like Claude, is one of the two engines the vendor's calculator prices at five credits per run instead of two.Source ↗
- +Meta AI · YesMeta AI closes the nine-engine inventory at two credits per run; the plan tooltips call the same engine 'Llama (Meta)', so naming differs between pages.Source ↗
Trade-offs against SEORCE
- −Publishes to your site · NoThe enumerated integrations are reporting destinations only, and the content flow ends with the user publishing.Source ↗
- −Grok · NoGrok is absent from every engine inventory the vendor publishes, including this enumerated FAQ answer, the calculator's complete model selector and both feature-page lists.Source ↗
- −DeepSeek · NoDeepSeek appears in none of the vendor's closed engine lists: this eight-model FAQ inventory, the nine-engine calculator selector and both feature-page inventories all omit it.Source ↗
- 06
Conductor
Enterprise AEO platform: AI visibility tracking, content generation, 24/7 site monitoring and API/MCP access.
Why it's on this listDone-for-you service · YesA Professional Services team sells strategic consulting and project work, including building the personas, topics and prompts that the tracking runs on, scoped per engagement rather than as a standing retainer.Source ↗
Where it improves on SEORCE
- +Google AI Mode · YesGoogle AI Mode is a separately selectable engine, though the vendor states city and state level tracking is not available for it.Source ↗
- +Microsoft Copilot · YesMicrosoft Copilot is a supported engine for topic tracking, although specific city and state location tracking is not offered for it.Source ↗
Trade-offs against SEORCE
- −Publishes to your site · NoDrafts leave Conductor as a downloaded .docx brief; the CMS integrations surface recommendations inside Drupal and trigger audits in WordPress rather than pushing content live.Source ↗
- −DeepSeek · NoDeepSeek is absent from the vendor's own complete list of currently supported engines, and the vendor invites requests for engines it does not yet cover.Source ↗
- −Meta AI · NoMeta AI does not appear in the enumerated list of engines Conductor currently supports, nor in the credits estimator which prices each selectable engine.Source ↗
What to watch for
- SEORCEBootstrapped, ~9-person team (per Inc42's company profile) — smaller operational scale than several venture-backed competitors in this index.
- PromptwatchEssential plan is capped at 50 tracked prompts and 1 website, which is thin for brands with multiple product lines.
- RankscaleNo GA4 or analytics integration for connecting AI visibility to traffic or revenue
- ApexGEOAnnual billing only on paid self-serve tiers
- ConductorConductor does not publish a rate card for Essentials, Growth, or Enterprise. The $26,800 to $500,000+ per year range and $48,950 median cited here come from Vendr's aggregated real-world contract data as reported by an independent reviewer (tryanalyze.ai), not from Conductor's own site. Treat it as a reported range rather than an official price.
