Bluefish vs Scrunch (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Bluefish if

• Fits if you're a very large brand and need AI answers checked against verified facts
• Works for companies where several teams own different fixes and need tasks routed to each

Look elsewhere if

• Not for you if you want to try it first, as there's no trial or self-serve plan
• Skip it if you're a small team, since it's built and sold for large enterprises
• Not for you if you need a price before a sales call, as none is published
• Pricey if you only want software, as custom audits and strategy come bundled in
• Watch out: rollout means personas, product lines and team assignments set up with its staff

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
