Which one is for you

Pick AppearOnAI if

  • Fits if you want a one-off audit and a 30-day plan without a subscription
  • Works for agencies reselling white-label reports, on the sales-led Agency plan

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you want ongoing tracking, at $249 a month for weekly updates
  • Skip it if you need real-time tracking, an API or white-label reports, which are on sales-led plans
  • Not for you if you want clear Enterprise pricing: one page says $500 a month, another says custom
  • Watch out: the engines named vary by page, so confirm which ones you'd get
  • Not for you if you want a trial: there's one free analysis, then the $99 audit

Pick Goodie if

  • Fits if you want the tracking and the content work that follows it in one tool, at $295 a month or more
  • Works for teams selling products who need SKU-level AI shopping data, which starts on Pro at $999

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you just want to know whether ChatGPT mentions you, at $295 a month even on yearly billing
  • Tight if you run several brands, as Core covers one brand, two countries and 5 of its 13 engines
  • Skip it if you need the API or multi-brand reporting, which only come with Enterprise
  • Watch out: Pro jumps to $999 a month, is started through a demo, and is where Slack support begins
  • Watch out: agents run on 50 optimization actions a month on Core, and monthly billing adds $59 to Core's price

How we grade them

Value for money
DTracking starts at $249 a month for 100 prompts, in this category's dearest tenth, and refreshes weekly. The $99 one-time audit is cheaper, but it's a single snapshot.
DCore is $295 a month billed annually, or $354 monthly, for 110 prompts and one brand. That's in this category's dearest tenth, which starts at $129, and Pro jumps to $999. Seats are unlimited on every plan.
Free plan and trial
DNo free plan or trial, but one free AI visibility analysis with no credit card. It shows where you stand, and after that the audit is $99.
CNo free plan, but there's a 7-day free trial of Core. A week shows you the first answers coming in, not much of a trend.
Features
CA visibility score, recommendations and a roadmap, competitor and sentiment analysis, citation tracking and AutoBlogger on Growth. The gaps: weekly updates only, and its pages disagree on which engines are covered.
BDaily mentions, citations, sentiment and competitor share, Brand Command checking AI claims against your facts, content and outreach agents, crawler analytics with attribution, and AI shopping at SKU level from Pro. Core covers 5 core models of the 13 engines it lists.
Ease of use
CNo rating on record. The audit needs little from you, but tracking means 100 target prompts to choose and a list of recommendations to act on.
CNo rating on record. You set prompts, competitors and brand facts before it tells you much, and the agents run on a monthly allowance of action credits you'll need to learn.
Platforms and integrations
CWeb only, with no integrations listed. The API and white-label reports are on the sales-led Enterprise and Agency plans.
BWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to Google Analytics, Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools, Vercel, Cloudflare, CloudFront and WordPress, with MCP from Core. The API waits for Enterprise.

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.
