Which one is for you
Pick AIclicks if
- Fits if you want a ranked task list from your tracking, not just a chart
- Works for small teams tracking about 30 prompts on one site in one country
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a real trial, as it's 3 days and charges your card unless you cancel
- Tight if you have more than one site or country, since Starter covers one of each
- Pricey if you need the API, MCP or GA4, which start at $189 a month on Pro
- Skip it if you need more than 300 prompts or every platform, which means an Enterprise quote
Pick Citation Radar if
- Fits if you're a solo marketer tracking 50 questions on one site
- Works for small agencies with up to five client sites, on Agency at $199 a month
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need daily numbers, as tracking re-runs weekly
- Not for you if Google's AI Overviews or Copilot matter most to you
- Too light for agencies who need white-label reports or an API today, as both are coming soon
- Tight if you stay free: 5 questions, 3 platforms and no weekly re-runs
How we grade them
| 2.0GPAAIclicksFair | 2.0GPACitation RadarFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CStarter is $59 a month for 30 prompts on 3 platforms, billed monthly, with up to 29% off yearly. That's this category's usual range, but GA4, the API and MCP need Pro at $189. | CStarter is $39 a month for 1 site and 50 questions on all five platforms. That's above the cheaper quarter of this category, which starts at $29, and under its $49 middle, so it sits on the low side of ordinary. |

That's shorter than a week. | CA free plan with no card: 1 website and 5 generated questions, checked on ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini. That's a one-off look, though, as weekly re-runs are paid only. |

The gaps are real: checks are weekly, AI Overviews and Copilot aren't covered, and the API is still coming soon. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. You choose platforms, prompts and competitors per project, and connect GA4 on Pro to see the traffic. | CNo rating on record. It's self-serve and generates questions for you, but you still pick what to track and read the scores before it tells you much. |

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.
