Which one is for you

Pick Brantial if

  • Works for online shops checking how products show in ChatGPT shopping cards

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you pay monthly, as Starter is then $139 a month, in this category's dearest tenth
  • Tight if you run three brands on Growth, as its 150 prompts are shared
  • Skip it if Google AI Overviews matters, as it isn't among the engines listed
  • Too light for exports on Starter, which gives PDF only; CSV, JSON and white-label start at Growth
  • Watch out: agentic shopping features on the site are marked planned and aren't in current plans

Pick Scrunch if

  • 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.
