The neutral index of AI-visibility & GEO tools

Summary

TrueRanker is an SEO suite that pairs Google rank tracking with AI-visibility monitoring of brand mentions and citations in AI assistant answers. It re-runs your own prompts on a schedule and stores the full answer text behind every number.

Best for
SEO teams that want a cheap, established rank tracker with AI-visibility bundled in.
Not for
Buyers who need Microsoft Copilot or Google AI Overviews coverage, or a large AI-prompt allocation without upgrading to the top tier.

Free trial
PartlyNo standing $0 plan: the vendor answers 'Is there a free version? No. Every plan is paid, and every plan starts with a 14-day trial that does not ask for a card.' Two free no-account tools exist beside it — the AI Content Visibility Checker (one URL, one-off, no history) and the SERP checker (one keyword at a time).

What it does

Monitors AI answers
YesCore job of the product: your own prompts are re-run against the assistants and each answer is scored for whether it named the brand, linked to the site, and which rival it recommended instead.TrueRanker re-runs your prompts every week across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Grok and DeepSeektrueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Optimises your content
YesA page-level checker fetches a URL the way an AI crawler does and returns a pass/fail per check plus a prioritised fix list, so it analyses pages you already have rather than only reporting citations.You get an overall 0–100 score, a pass or fail on each individual check, and a list of fixes ordered by how much each one is costing you.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-content-ch…
Generates content
NoThe vendor's own inventory of what the suite does lists tracking, monitoring, auditing, research and reporting modules only; no drafting or writing feature appears anywhere on the product pages.TrueRanker is an all-in-one SEO and AI-visibility suite: keyword rank tracking, local SEO, backlink monitoring, site audits, competitor research and…trueranker.com
Publishes to your site
NoNo CMS connection is offered; the only documented integration is Google Search Console for pulling impressions and clicks into reports, and outputs are PDFs, shared URLs and exports.TrueRanker is an all-in-one SEO and AI-visibility suite: keyword rank tracking, local SEO, backlink monitoring, site audits, competitor research and…trueranker.com
Technical AEO
YesThe GEO checker tests llms.txt, Schema.org markup, JavaScript-hidden copy, lang/hreflang and local signals, which is the technical half of making a page legible to answer engines.It combines every individual check on the page — content reachable without JavaScript, structured data, llms.txt, language annotations and local…trueranker.com/ai-visibility-content-ch…
Done-for-you service
NoTrueRanker sells software, not people: the 'Agency' plan is a seat and volume tier for agencies to use themselves, and the only human help named is a free assisted migration on that plan.TrueRanker is an all-in-one SEO and AI-visibility suite: keyword rank tracking, local SEO, backlink monitoring, site audits, competitor research and…trueranker.com

Answer engines

ChatGPT
YesChatGPT is tracked on every paid tier including the $46.80 Starter, and appears as an included engine on each plan card rather than as an upgrade.Starter covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews; Claude, Grok and DeepSeek unlock on Pro.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Perplexity
YesPerplexity is one of the four engines included from the entry Starter tier upward, and carries its own share-of-voice and mention/citation split per prompt.Starter covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews; Claude, Grok and DeepSeek unlock on Pro.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Gemini
YesGemini is included from Starter upward and is listed as an included engine on every plan card, separate from the Google AI Overviews coverage also shipped on all tiers.Starter covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews; Claude, Grok and DeepSeek unlock on Pro.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Google AI Overviews
YesGoogle AI Overviews is counted as the seventh engine and is included on every plan card; the rank tracker separately flags whether an Overview appeared for a keyword and named the brand.One prompt checked across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews counts as one prompt, not seven.trueranker.com/pricing
Google AI Mode
NoGoogle AI Mode is absent from the vendor's closed seven-engine inventory, which the pricing FAQ enumerates and caps at seven; the competitor table credits AI Mode to Ahrefs and SE Ranking, not to TrueRanker.One prompt checked across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews counts as one prompt, not seven.trueranker.com/pricing
Claude
PartlyClaude is tracked, but not on the entry Starter tier: the Starter plan card greys it out as 'Not included' and it unlocks only from the $82.80 Pro plan upward.Starter covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews; Claude, Grok and DeepSeek unlock on Pro.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Microsoft Copilot
NoMicrosoft Copilot appears nowhere in the seven engines the plan cards and pricing FAQ enumerate, and the vendor's own comparison lists Copilot as an Ahrefs Brand Radar engine rather than one of its own.One prompt checked across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews counts as one prompt, not seven.trueranker.com/pricing
Grok
PartlyGrok is covered, but the Starter plan card marks it 'Not included'; it becomes available only from Pro, so the cheapest suite tier does not deliver it.Starter covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews; Claude, Grok and DeepSeek unlock on Pro.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
DeepSeek
PartlyDeepSeek is one of the six chat engines but sits behind the Pro tier; on Starter the plan card renders it greyed out and labelled 'Not included'.Starter covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews; Claude, Grok and DeepSeek unlock on Pro.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Meta AI
NoMeta AI is not among the seven engines the vendor enumerates for prompt checks, and no product, pricing or comparison page on the site mentions it as tracked or planned.One prompt checked across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews counts as one prompt, not seven.trueranker.com/pricing
Coverage in the vendor’s words
YesCoverage is stated as a closed list with an explicit tier split: seven engines counting Google AI Overviews, of which Starter gets four and Pro and Agency get all seven.One prompt checked across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Google AI Overviews counts as one prompt, not seven.trueranker.com/pricing

What it reports

Names the cited sources
PartlyCitations are counted and the cited source is highlighted inside the stored answer text, but the reporting is brand and competitor centric: no inventory of which domains or pages an engine cites generally is documented.A citation is the engine treating your website as a source and giving the reader a clickable link, which is referral traffic.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Competitor tracking
YesRivals are added per project by brand name or domain and share of voice is computed for each, per engine and per prompt, though the count is capped by plan at three on Starter.Add competitors per project — Starter 3, Pro 15, Agency unlimited — by brand name or domain, and TrueRanker computes share of voice for each of them…trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Brand sentiment
PartlyEach answer is scored positive, neutral or negative per engine, which is tone rather than attributes: no extraction of the qualities or themes a model associates with the brand is described.Sentiment scored positive, neutral or negative per enginetrueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Recommendations
PartlyPrioritised fixes come from the separate page-level GEO checker, not from the prompt tracker itself, which reports scores, stored answers and the prompts where a rival wins but leaves the remedy to you.Fixes ordered Low, Medium and High by impacttrueranker.com/ai-visibility-content-ch…
AI crawler analytics
NoThe crawler audits your own pages for AI readiness; nothing on the site reports which AI bots visited your site or how often.Our advanced crawler analyzes over 80 critical SEO data points. This includes On-Page optimization (word count, meta tags, headers), Technical health…trueranker.com/on-page-seo-checker
Wrong answers about you
PartlyThe full AI response is stored and readable so you can spot false claims yourself; there is no automated hallucination flag or alert.Accuracy: Is the AI hallucinating? Is it quoting an old price? (“TrueRanker costs $5” when it actually costs $14.99).trueranker.com/docs/understanding-your-…

Plans and signing up

Prompt or credit allowance
YesAllowances are published per plan in prompts per month, and a prompt checked across all seven engines counts once rather than seven times, which makes the cap easy to reason about.What the plan decides is how many prompts you track: 50 on Starter, 100 on Pro and 200 on Agency.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Projects or brands
YesSeveral brands fit in one account: the cheapest plan carries three projects, and the plan comparison table raises that to 15 on Pro and unlimited on Agency.It is TrueRanker’s SEO-only plan: 100 Google keywords checked daily, 100 monitored backlinks, 100 site audits a month, 3 projects and 5 scheduled…trueranker.com/rank-tracker-pricing
Countries
YesLocation is set per prompt down to city level and the query is geo-anchored to it, so a market other than your own can be tracked on any plan.Every prompt carries its own location, down to city level, and the query is geo-anchored to it.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
How often it checks
PartlyAI prompts refresh on a fixed weekly cycle across all engines, with no daily option and no on-demand re-run documented; only the Google rank tracking side refreshes daily.Every prompt you track is re-run weekly across all six engines.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker
Card required to start
NoThe 14-day trial gives full feature access without a card, and the free page checker and SERP checker need no account at all to run once.Yes. 14 days, full feature access, no credit card required. Cancel any time inside the app.trueranker.com
Self-serve signup
YesSign-up, configuration and the first scan happen without sales contact; only the custom, quote-only plan for teams tracking at scale routes through 'Talk to sales'.Most projects are configured in an afternoon. The first scan lands within the week — no onboarding call, no implementation project.trueranker.com/ai-visibility-tracker

Access and integrations

API
PartlyA REST API covering AI visibility exists but only on the top Agency tier; the plan comparison table marks 'API & MCP access' as not included on both Starter and Pro.Yes. A full REST API on the Agency plan covers keywords, rankings, AI visibility, backlinks and reports.trueranker.com
MCP server
PartlyMCP is offered alongside the API as a single Agency-tier entitlement, so an agent can query the data only on the $154.80 plan; Starter and Pro rows read 'Not included'.API & MCP accesstrueranker.com/pricing
BI export
YesA native Looker Studio connector is listed as included for all plans, with CSV export from the tracker and the Agency-tier REST API for a warehouse or custom BI stack.The native Looker Studio connector drops TrueRanker data into dashboards you already maintain.
