Peec AI alternatives

Stay with Peec if you want daily tracking, genuinely good competitor comparison views, and country coverage that does not add to the bill, Peec's own FAQ says "Pricing remains tied to usage of prompts, not the number of regions or languages", which nothing else here matches. Leave if the arithmetic does not work, and for most single-product companies it does not: Starter is $80/mo for fifty prompts, and most companies have between eight and twenty questions a buyer would genuinely type, so you are buying two to six times the prompts you have. CiteRank's Solo is $5/mo for ten questions on ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, a smaller instrument, deliberately. Two things worth knowing before you compare the headline numbers. Peec includes three chosen models on every tier below Enterprise, so fifty prompts is not five engines; a fourth model is an add-on at $30 to $140/mo depending on the tier. And the ladder that actually decides an agency's bill is projects, not prompts, one on Starter, two on Pro, five on Advanced, so three clients means Advanced at $420/mo before anyone has asked what you want to track. If neither of us fits, AthenaHQ's Essential tier is free across five engines and is the honest first stop.

Peec (Berlin, ~$29M raised) tracks a defined prompt set across answer engines and is unusually clear about competitor comparison, you can see who is winning your prompts rather than only how you are doing. Its pricing is honest and legible: you buy prompts.

Fifty prompts is a lot. Most single-product companies have somewhere between eight and twenty questions a buyer would genuinely type, and padding the list to fill a plan makes the report worse, not better, you end up averaging your real questions together with ones nobody asks.

The other thing prompt-count pricing hides is engines. Fifty prompts on two engines and fifty on five are very different amounts of measurement at the same headline number. Peec is explicit about this, every tier below Enterprise asks you to choose three models, and it is worth checking the same line on any plan you compare it against. Profound's $99 Starter, for one, is fifty prompts on ChatGPT and nothing else.

There is a third number that only shows up if you read the columns rather than the headline:projects. Starter is one project, Pro is two, Advanced is five, and only Enterprise is unlimited. For an agency that inverts the whole pricing story, your bill is set by how many clients you carry, not by how many questions each of them has. Three clients means Advanced at $420/mo before anyone has asked what you want to track. Peec's published tiers, read direct off peec.ai/pricing on 14 August 2026, with a browser, because that page renders its plan grid client-side and hands a plain fetcher nothing at all.

• CiteRank, $5-19/mo. Ten questions on three engines at $5, twenty-five on all five at $12. Weekly refresh cycle, Monday report, competitor share of voice, and the list of third-party pages the engines cited to answer you. Built for one founder, not a workspace.
• Mangools AI Search Watcher, from $15.60/mo, billed annually. The lowest entry price read in this category, and an add-on inside the Mangools suite. The vendor's wording is "Subscriptions start at $15.60 per month with annual plans", read on 9 August 2026 and not retrievable from the vendor since, its price panel renders client-side, so month-to-month costs more; it names ChatGPT and Google AIO but not Perplexity.
• Semrush / Ahrefs Brand Radar, from $129/mo (Ahrefs Lite). If you already pay for either suite, you may already own AI visibility reporting. Ahrefs names Brand Radar on Lite and above, at five tracked AI prompts on Lite; Semrush bundles AI tracking into its main plans rather than selling it separately. Check what you own before you buy anything.
• Profound, from $99/mo. Up, not sideways: the best-funded product in the category, with an entry tier that covers ChatGPT only and one seat.
• Otterly.AI, $29/mo Lite, $189-489 above it. Lite is fifteen prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot, which is the cheapest way into this category from an established vendor. The Standard and Premium tiers are agency-shaped, with the seats and client workspaces that implies. Claude and Gemini are add-ons at every tier.
• AthenaHQ, free tier, then ~$295/mo. The Starter plan is agency-shaped and priced for the strategy work it bundles alongside the measurement. Before that, Essential is free across all five engines with unlimited members, credit-metered at $25 of free credit, so it runs out rather than running on. If you only want to find out whether the engines mention you at all, start there and pay nobody, including us.

Not "which tool has more features", but "how often does it ask, and does it tell me when it could not?". A single run of a prompt is unreliable, repeat the same question and the cited set moves, with only about 2.2% of domains recurring across three runs. A tool that reports a rate limit as a zero will have you fixing something that was never broken.

Every CiteRank report states asked-versus-answered per engine, because "not cited" and "could not ask" are different facts and reading one as the other is the most expensive mistake in this category.

Test it on one question, free, no account, and compare the answer against whatever you are using now.

Starter is $80/mo for 50 prompts, three chosen models and one project; Pro is $205 /mo for 150 prompts and two projects; Advanced is $420 /mo for 350 prompts and five projects; Enterprise is custom, with all models and unlimited projects. Read direct off peec.ai/pricing on 14 August 2026 with a browser, because that page renders its plan grid client-side and returns nothing to a plain fetcher. One caveat we would rather state than hide: it was read from a US connection, where the page prints dollars and the euro sign appears nowhere on it. A European buyer may be shown euros.

Several, and they are cheaper by buying you less rather than by undercutting. Otterly.AI's Lite is $29/month for 15 prompts across four engines. CiteRank's Solo is $5/mo for ten questions across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. AthenaHQ's Essential tier is free across five engines, metered by credit, "$25 free credit", "Includes 300 credits", which makes it a trial of five engines rather than a plan that keeps running. Profound is not the cheap option: its $99/month Starter is "ChatGPT tracking only".

Not on any tier below Enterprise. Every paid tier carries the same line, "Choose 3 models", out of ChatGPT, AI Mode, AI Overviews, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity and Gemini. What changed as of tonight's read, and what this site said wrongly until now, is that the cap is on what is included rather than on what is reachable: Peec sells "Additional Models, Track more AI models without switching plans" at $30 /mo on Starter, $70 on Pro and $140 on Advanced. Enterprise is "Choose from all models" and "Up to 12 LLM models tracked".

Fewer than any of these plans sell. Most single-product companies have somewhere between eight and twenty questions a buyer would genuinely type, and padding the list to fill a fifty-prompt plan makes the report worse rather than better, you end up averaging your real questions together with ones nobody asks. The number worth comparing is not the monthly price but the price divided by questions multiplied by engines: fifty prompts on three models and fifteen on four are sold at similar-looking prices and are not similar products.
