GEON
Best AI Visibility Monitoring Tools in 2026
Every tool here answers the same question — does an AI assistant mention your brand when someone asks about your category? They differ enormously in how they find out, which assistants they cover, and what that costs.
Short answer: If you need Claude coverage or you work in Turkish, GEON is the only option in the entry tier. If you need crawler-level attribution and have enterprise budget, Profound. If you want the cheapest way to start, Otterly at $29. If you already pay for Semrush or Ahrefs, use what you have before buying another tool.
| Entry price | Engines included | Claude | Refresh | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GEON | $99/mo | 6 | Included | On demand, 3 runs per scan |
| Profound | $99/mo | 1 (ChatGPT) | From $399/mo | Daily |
| Peec AI | ~$95/mo | 3 of 6 | Enterprise only | Daily |
| Otterly.AI | $29/mo | 4 | Paid add-on | Daily |
| Semrush AI Toolkit | $99/mo | 5 | Not covered | Daily / weekly |
| Ahrefs Brand Radar | $129 + $199–699 | 6 | Not covered | Monthly, 90-day window |
What actually separates these tools
Feature lists in this category look identical: everyone tracks prompts, everyone reports share of voice, everyone charts it over time. The real differences sit underneath, in three places.
The first is which assistants get covered at the price you'll actually pay. Claude is the clearest example — it is a major assistant, and at entry pricing almost nobody covers it. Profound's $99 plan is ChatGPT only. Peec keeps Claude behind an enterprise contract. Otterly sells it as a per-tier add-on. Semrush and Ahrefs don't cover it at all.
The second is how often the data refreshes, which varies by more than an order of magnitude. Most tools query daily. Ahrefs refreshes its ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot data monthly on a 90-day window, and says so plainly in its own methodology post — fine for a directional read, too slow if you need to know whether last week's change moved anything.
The third is whether the vendor tells you how the number was produced. Peec publishes its share-of-voice formula with a worked example. Profound published the experiment behind its sampling cadence. Semrush discloses its data sources but not its score weighting. Ahrefs is unusually candid that its metrics are modelled indicators rather than measurements.
How to choose
Start from constraints rather than feature lists — in a category this young, the feature lists converge but the constraints don't.
- Already paying for Semrush or Ahrefs? Use the AI features you have before adding a tool. Neither is best-in-class here, but both are adequate for a directional read and cost nothing extra to try.
- Need Claude, Grok or DeepSeek without an enterprise contract? GEON is the only one that includes all three in the entry plan.
- Need to prove AI crawlers actually reached your site? Profound's Agent Analytics reads real server logs through CDN integrations. No one else here does that.
- Running an agency with many clients? Peec's pooled credit model is genuinely designed for that, and reassigning capacity between clients works the way you'd want.
- Just want to see whether this matters for you? Otterly at $29/mo with a 7-day trial is the cheapest honest answer.
- Working in Turkish? GEON is the only product here with a Turkish interface. Otterly covers Turkey as a market but its interface is English-only.
Where GEON fits — and where it doesn't
GEON measures by sending your prompt to each platform's own web-grounded search with your brand name absent from the request, then detecting the brand in the answer that comes back. It takes three measurements per prompt and platform and labels every result low, medium or high confidence, so a single unstable reading is visible as unstable rather than presented as fact.
It also runs a technical AI-readiness audit — robots.txt access for the current crawler names, server-rendered content, structured data, sitemap health — because the most common reason a brand is invisible to AI assistants is that they can't read the site at all.
It is not the right tool for everything. There is no sentiment analysis yet. There is no prompt-demand database, so you bring your own prompts rather than picking from a corpus of real user queries — Profound, Semrush and Ahrefs all have large datasets there and GEON has none. There is no server-log crawler analytics, no SSO and no SOC 2. If those are requirements, the honest answer is one of the tools above.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI visibility tool?
There isn't a single best one. Profound leads on enterprise depth and attribution, Otterly on price, Peec on agency workflows, Semrush and Ahrefs on integration with SEO work you already do, and GEON on engine coverage per dollar, measurement transparency and Turkish support. Pick by constraint — engines you need, refresh speed, and budget.
Do I need a dedicated AI visibility tool if I already pay for Semrush or Ahrefs?
Not necessarily. Both include AI visibility features, and for a directional read they're adequate. Consider a dedicated tool when you hit a specific limit: Semrush's 25-prompt entry allowance, Ahrefs' monthly refresh cadence, or the fact that neither covers Claude.
How often should AI visibility data refresh?
Daily is the norm and is enough for most teams. Profound published an experiment showing once-daily sampling lands within about two percentage points of ten-times-daily. What matters more than raw frequency is whether the tool tells you how stable a given reading is, because AI answers vary between identical queries.
Why do these tools give different numbers for the same brand?
Because they measure different things. Vendors differ on which engines they query, whether they capture the chat interface or an API, how many samples they take, and how they define visibility — Peec divides your mentions by all brand mentions, Profound divides responses containing your brand by responses containing any brand, Semrush blends topic coverage with mention consistency. Comparing scores across tools isn't meaningful; comparing a single tool's trend over time is.
