InSpace alternatives in 2026: GEO tools that show their work
InSpace sells 10 to 40 pages a month on a one-year minimum and reports its own results. Five alternatives ranked by how well they let you measure AI visibility, with sourced prices.
People usually reach this page after a sales call with InSpace. The pitch is appealing: NOVA picks the pages that should win, writes or rewrites them, publishes into your CMS, and a specialist checks each one first. Then the paperwork arrives. The cheapest plan, Stratosphere, is $1,000 a month for 10 pages on a one-year term, so $12,000 committed before you see a result. The lowest rates need two years paid upfront. There's no trial.
Our InSpace review explains the deeper issue. For a product sold on GEO, InSpace publishes very little about how it measures AI visibility. The only engine view is an example dashboard for a fictional brand. Prompt counts, refresh rates and countries aren't published, and AI crawler logs and AI-referred conversion tracking are not described on its product, pricing, or service pages. The vendor that writes the pages also reports on them.
So we ranked the alternatives by one question first: can you see the evidence yourself? Content output comes second.
How we ranked them
- Measurement you control: prompts, engines, citations, crawler activity, conversions.
- Commitment: published monthly prices beat a year-long contract.
- Content: whether the tool can also produce pages, and how that ties back to the data.
Every price below comes from that tool's entry in our catalog. Where a listing doesn't cover something, we say so instead of guessing.
1. Promptwatch
Promptwatch is the clear first pick, because it answers every measurement question InSpace leaves open, and it still writes and publishes content.
Pricing is on the site and billed monthly, with annual billing optional at 12 months for the price of 10. Explore is free (10 prompts, ChatGPT only). Essential is $95/mo for 50 prompts, though it has no crawler logs. Professional at $245/mo is where GEO work gets serious: 150 prompts, 18,000 responses, 5 AEO articles, 1M visitor events and 25M crawler logs, with a 7-day trial on monthly billing.
Tracking runs daily per model, country and language. Live-search engines are monitored through their real interfaces (ChatGPT Search, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, Perplexity, Amazon Alexa and Meta AI), with Claude, DeepSeek, Mistral and Grok tracked through their APIs. Citation analytics break down which pages and domains engines cite, including Reddit, YouTube and LinkedIn reports. Agent Analytics shows IP-verified crawler visits from GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and others and follows the path from crawl to citation, with a citation rate per page. Visitor analytics then follows AI-referred visits through to conversions.
For buyers who wanted InSpace's done-for-you output, Business at $579/mo adds the automated Content Agent with a publishing calendar, a monthly budget, and either a review inbox or hands-off mode with a quality check. It includes 10 AEO articles, 350 prompts and 100M crawler logs, publishing to WordPress, Webflow and Framer. There's no trial on Business.
The catch: you or a colleague review drafts. There's no account team writing for you.
2. AthenaHQ
AthenaHQ suits teams that want measurement plus a task list. Its Action Center turns visibility data into assignable optimization tasks, and its listing names GA4, Shopify and Webflow revenue attribution. There's a free tier with 300 credits, and Starter is $295/mo for 3,600 credits (one credit is one AI response) across 11 models, with unlimited topics, prompts and competitors.
Two limits to know. Starter is country-level only. And our listing documents no AI crawler logs, so plan on Promptwatch if you need to see bot hits per page.
3. Scrunch AI
Scrunch AI is a monitoring platform with a published entry price. Core is $250/mo for 125 unique prompts and 5,000 responses a month across four LLMs (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Copilot), with 5 site audits a month, five licenses, and AI agent and bot traffic reporting. Enterprise is custom and goes up to nine LLMs plus its Agent Experience Platform, which serves AI-optimized pages to crawlers.
Scrunch doesn't write content for you. Pick it if monitoring is the whole job and four engines are enough.
4. FirstIndex
If you really do want a service instead of software, FirstIndex is the like-for-like swap with a friendlier contract. It's one plan at $2,000/mo, month to month. Each month it ships up to 12 in-depth articles, 50+ fixes to existing pages, comparison pages and free tools, with one change going live per day after a person checks it, and a weekly report every Monday. AI mention tracking covers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude, and its llms.txt adds Google AI Overviews.
It's narrower than InSpace in one way: it's built for software companies only. And it shares InSpace's blind spot, since it doesn't publish a prompt count or refresh rate. Run an independent tracker alongside it.
5. Outrank
Outrank is the budget pick if your real goal was simply more pages. $99/mo buys 30 articles a month on autopilot, with upgrades to 60 or 90, keyword research, a backlink exchange and unlimited users. Its integrations list is broad: WordPress, WordPress.com, Webflow, Shopify, Framer, Wix, Notion, Ghost and Next.js, so Shopify and Wix sites are covered.
Outrank is a content engine, not a GEO platform. Our catalog lists no prompt tracking, citation analytics, crawler logs or visitor conversions, so pair it with a measurement tool.
Which one to choose
If you take one thing from this list, make it this: don't sign a 12-month content contract before you have your own baseline. Set up Promptwatch first, see which prompts you lose and which pages AI crawlers already read, and decide from there. For most teams that baseline makes the case for Promptwatch Professional or Business on its own. The rest of our InSpace alternatives grid is there if you need a different shape of tool.
