- Fits if your site runs on AEM Cloud and you want fixes served to AI crawlers without page edits
- Works for teams already in Adobe Analytics who want AI traffic in the same reports
Look elsewhere if

- Skip it if you need to know which AI engines are tracked, since the documentation doesn't list them

- Watch out: the trial stops at 100 prompts, one domain and 50 URLs per opportunity type
- Pricey if you need a price before a sales call, as every license goes through an Adobe rep
Pick Scrunch if
- Fits if you're a large brand weighing Agent Pages, which serve AI agents a cleaned-up copy of your site
- Works for agencies running several client brands and pitch workspaces from one account
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if Gemini, Claude or AI Mode matter, as they're tracked on Enterprise only
- Pricey if you're a small team: Core is $250 a month for one brand and 125 prompts
- Tight if you sell in several countries or watch many rivals: Core allows one country and 5 competitors
- Watch out: the API, SSO and Agent Pages are Enterprise only, and Enterprise prices aren't published
- Watch out: the only trial is 7 days of Core, and Scrunch became a Sitecore company in 2026

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
