Chosenly vs Profound (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Chosenly if

• Fits if you sell B2B software and want to know when buyers' AI shortlists name you
• Works for companies that want outreach contacts and content drafts with the tracking

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you need Perplexity or Gemini, at $200 a month each on top
• Skip it if you want day-to-day monitoring or sentiment, as it tracks neither
• Not for you if you want to try first, with a three-month minimum and no trial
• Tight if you need more countries or business lines, each $200 a month extra
• Watch out: its pricing page lists White Glove at $1,350 a month, but its FAQ quotes $4,000

Pick Profound if

• Fits if you're a large brand that wants answers tracked on up to 9 engines and can sign a custom contract
• Works for agencies running pitch audits for prospects, at $99 a month for 10 short workspaces

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want to sign up and pay without a sales call, as brands can't
• Pricey if you're an agency with several clients, at $399 a month per client workspace on top of $99
• Tight if you want to test your own questions, since the trial's prompts are fixed
• Watch out: custom prompts, the API, exports and SSO all come only with Enterprise
• Watch out: agents spend credits, and extra credits need an Enterprise package with overage billing or a pause

Chosenly

• Every plan has a three-month minimum commitment, and there is no free plan or trial; sign-up runs through a demo.
• Extra AI platforms such as Perplexity or Gemini, extra countries and extra business lines are add-ons at $200 a month each.
• Chosenly says it does not track prompts daily and leaves out sentiment scores, so it suits monthly planning more than day-to-day monitoring.
• Agencies get custom pricing and partner dashboards, quoted after a call.

Profound

• Brands have no self-serve paid plan: after the 7-day trial, ongoing tracking needs a custom-priced Enterprise contract.
• Trial users get a recommended prompt set and cannot edit it; custom prompts, API access, exports and SSO come with Enterprise.
• On Agency Growth, each full client workspace is a $399-a-month add-on and 5 more trial workspaces cost $199 a month.
• Agent runs use credits; extra credits beyond the plan need an Enterprise package, with overage billing or a pause set by the account team.
