GEO software pricing pages reviewed: what each plan actually includes (2026)
We read the pricing pages of 11 GEO platforms on November 6, 2026 and translated each plan into prompts, responses, engines, seats and gated features. Promptwatch ranks first.
A GEO pricing page is harder to read than it looks. One vendor sells prompts, another sells responses, a third sells credits that cost a different amount per engine. Seats might be unlimited or capped at five. Crawler logs, the API and content generation are often on the page but greyed out two tiers below where you would expect them.
So we read them line by line. Every pricing page below was captured on November 6, 2026, from a Netherlands IP address, and the screenshots are from that capture. Some vendors geolocate and showed euros; we say so in the caption and quote those figures as shown, without converting. Where a page and our catalog disagree, we go with the page. Where neither says something, we say it is not stated.
What we looked for on each page:
- The unit you actually pay for. Prompts, responses, credits, or checks.
- Engines included on the entry plan, and which are add-ons.
- Seats and projects.
- What is gated. Crawler logs, API and MCP access, content generation, faster tracking.
- Trial terms. Length, and which plans have one.

1. Promptwatch
Promptwatch's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026.
Promptwatch has the clearest units of the group: each plan lists prompts and responses separately. Essential is $95 a month for 1 project, 50 prompts and 6,000 responses. Professional is $245 for 2 projects, 150 prompts and 18,000 responses. Business is $579 for 5 projects, 350 prompts and 42,000 responses. Enterprise is custom. A $/€ toggle shows the euro prices (€85, €205, €499), and annual billing charges 12 months for the price of 10.
Seats are unlimited on every plan. The 7-day free trial on monthly billing applies to all six self-serve plans, including Business and the agency tiers, so you can trial the plan you would actually buy.
The gating is where the page rewards a careful read:
- Essential includes Agent Chat, country-level tracking, MCP and API access, 200K visitor events, 500 Agent Credits and a 1,500-page site audit. It does not include crawler logs.
- Professional adds Agent Analytics (25M crawler logs), content writing and refresh with 5 AEO articles, the Knowledge Base, 1M visitor events and 1,500 Agent Credits.
- Business adds tracking up to hourly, state and city tracking, Shopping Insights, Ads Radar, Fact Check, audit logs, the automated Content Agent, 100M crawler logs and 10 AEO articles.
- Enterprise adds SSO, managed content workflows, custom tracking frequency and a dedicated success manager.
An "Agencies" tab switches to Kick-off ($199), Growth ($399) and Scale ($799), each with unlimited projects and prompts, crawler logs and visitor analytics, and 10,000, 25,000 or 65,000 responses. Agency plans do not include the Content Agent or AEO articles.
The page lists ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Copilot, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Meta AI, DeepSeek, Mistral, Amazon Alexa, Codex, OpenCode and Claude Code among supported models. Every paid plan can track any of the supported engines.
Why it ranks first: it is the only page here where the entry plans already include visitor analytics and the API, crawler logs arrive on the second tier, and the content layer is priced in the same table. You can see the cost of the whole loop before you talk to anyone.
2. AthenaHQ
AthenaHQ's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026.
AthenaHQ sells credits, and it defines them: one credit is one AI response. The free Essential plan gives 300 credits on five engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, Gemini, Copilot) with unlimited users. Starter is $295 a month for 3,600 credits across 11 models, unlimited topics, prompts and competitors, country-level support, a one-month credit rollover, CSV export, on-page and off-page actions and a content optimization agent. Annual billing is 17% off.
The fine print sits under the Starter card: "API access and extra credits are optional add-ons billed on top of the Starter subscription. Contact us for add-on pricing." Enterprise adds the Athena Citation Engine, SAML and OIDC SSO, an audit log, multi-region and multi-language support and persona targeting.
How to read it: 3,600 responses for $295 is fewer responses than Promptwatch Essential's 6,000 for $95, but the prompt count is unlimited. The credit budget is the real limit.
3. Scrunch AI
Scrunch's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026.
Scrunch AI has two brand plans. Core is $250 a month for 125 unique prompts, 5,000 responses a month, 5 site audits, 1 brand workspace and 5 user licenses, with a 7-day free trial. Enterprise is custom.
The comparison table below the cards is worth scrolling to. Core covers four LLMs (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AIO, Copilot), one country, one language, one persona and five competitors, with query fan-out marked "Limited" and one page optimization a month. AI agent and bot traffic is included. AXP, Looker Studio, the query API and advanced API access are Enterprise, and MCP access is listed as custom on Enterprise. Enterprise covers nine LLMs. The page does not say whether Core is billed monthly or annually.
4. Profound
Profound's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026.
Profound shows two brand plans and no prices. Trial is free: limited AI Marketer credits, 50 prompts run daily for 7 days, on ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, with no data history, exports or API. Enterprise is custom, with AI Marketer credits for the team, a tailored prompt plan, up to nine answer engines, dedicated support and SSO/SAML with SOC 2.
The table shows unlimited seats and unlimited domains for Agent Analytics on both plans. Our catalog's earlier estimate for Enterprise is about $40k a year; the page confirms none of that. Reading it plainly: this is a trial in front of a sales process.
5. Rankshift
Rankshift's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026. Prices shown in euros for a visitor in the Netherlands.
Rankshift prices showed for us this time: Starter €69, Professional €159 and Business €359 a month, billed annually (annual saves 10%). Each includes unlimited projects and seats, every supported LLM, a daily or weekly prompt refresh, a content brief generator and an AI content writer. Prompt allowances are per day (150, 350, 850) with credits per month (9,500, 22,000, 53,000). There is a 30-day trial.
The detail to catch: in the screenshot, crawler analytics, Looker Studio and MCP and API access are greyed out on Starter and ticked from Professional. If those matter, Professional is the real entry plan.
6. Rankscale
Rankscale's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026. Prices shown in euros for a visitor in the Netherlands.
Rankscale is credit-based, and it explains the rate: a query typically costs 0.25 credits per engine per prompt. Our catalog lists Essentials at $20 a month ($17 billed yearly, yearly only, 120 credits), Pro at $99 (1,200 credits, up to 4,800 answers), Pro+ at $229 (3,000 credits and REST API access), Growth at $385 (5,500 credits, white-label options) and Enterprise at $780 (12,000 credits). Yearly billing saves 15%.
The credit calculator on the page shows why the rate matters: Claude costs 2 credits per run and DeepSeek 1, against 0.25 for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Mode. Every plan lists 17+ engines, MCP, all regions and scheduling from hourly to monthly. The REST API starts on Pro+, and credit rollover starts on Pro.
7. LLM Pulse
LLM Pulse shows its prices in euros with a tracking toggle. On weekly tracking, Starter is €49 a month (50 prompts, 1 project), Growth €99 (150 prompts, 2 projects) and Scale €299 (450 prompts, 5 projects), or €40.83, €82.50 and €249.17 a month billed annually. Our catalog lists the daily-tracking prices at €79, €149 and €449.
Every plan includes five AI models, unlimited team members and the MCP server. Extra models start at €8 a month each, extra prompts cost €1 per prompt a month, and an extra project €50. Sentiment, AI traffic analytics and the LLM Pulse Agent start on Growth; the API, Looker Studio connector, CLI and per-URL Agent Analytics start on Scale. The headline price assumes weekly data, so check the toggle before you compare.
8. Writesonic GEO
Writesonic's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026.
Writesonic GEO bundles tracking with content. With the annual toggle on (save 20%), Starter is $79 a month, Basic $199 and Growth $399. Prompts go 50, 100 and 200, tracked daily, with answers per day of 50, 300 and 600. Articles go 15, 25 and 50 a month, plus site audits and limited agentic workflow runs. Users are 1, 2 and 3, with extra users at $50 each a month.
The catch is in one line repeated on every self-serve card: "Track ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews." The other platforms, the full Action Center, Fact Check and Social Citations are Enterprise. Growth gets an Action Center trial of five on-page and five off-page actions a month.
9. Goodie AI
Goodie's pricing page, captured November 6, 2026.
Goodie AI prices high and says so: "Some AEO platforms start lower than our Core plan." Core is $295 a month with a 7-day free trial: 5 core models, 110 prompts, 1 brand, 2 countries and languages, MCP, 50 optimizations a month and unlimited seats. Pro is $999 with 8 models, 250 prompts, 5 countries and SKU-level agentic commerce visibility. Enterprise covers up to 14 models, revenue attribution and API access.
Data collection is daily on every plan. The page has a billed-monthly versus billed-annually toggle (two months free annually) and doesn't spell out next to the price which one the figure reflects, so confirm before you sign.
10. Peec AI and Otterly.AI
Both showed euros to our Netherlands visitor. Peec AI lists Starter at €85, Pro at €205 and Advanced at €425 a month, with 50, 150 and 350 prompts, three models of your choice, daily tracking and unlimited users. Extra models are priced per plan, and the API starts on Pro. Our catalog's $95 Starter figure is not what the page showed today.
Otterly.AI lists Lite at €29, Standard at €189 and Premium at €489 a month, with 15, 100 and 400 prompts on four base engines, daily tracking and unlimited team members. Gemini, Google AI Mode and Claude are paid add-ons priced by tier, and the API, MCP and Agent Analytics events start on Standard.

FAQ
Why do prices show in euros on some GEO pricing pages?
Several vendors geolocate. From a Netherlands IP, Ahrefs, HubSpot, LLM Pulse, Otterly.AI, Peec AI, Rankscale, Rankshift, Semrush and Surfer showed euros. We quote what the page showed and don't convert.
What is the difference between a prompt and a response?
A prompt is the question you track. A response is one answer collected for it. Running the same prompt on more engines, or more often, produces more responses, which is why plans that cap responses separately from prompts are easier to budget.
Which GEO platforms have a free trial?
From the pages we read: Promptwatch (7 days on monthly billing, all self-serve plans), Scrunch (7 days), Goodie (7 days on Core), Writesonic (7 days, per its homepage), LLM Pulse (14 days, per its homepage), Rankshift (30 days) and Profound's 7-day trial. AthenaHQ has a free Essential tier, Rankscale offers a Pro trial, and Peec AI and Otterly.AI both advertise a trial without a length on the captured page.
Do these prices include crawler logs?
Rarely on the entry plan. Promptwatch includes crawler logs from Professional, Rankshift from Professional, LLM Pulse from Scale, and Otterly.AI from Standard. Scrunch Core includes bot traffic reporting. Check the comparison table on each page, not just the cards.
