Otterly.AI vs Skillaeo (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Otterly.AI if

• Fits if a daily read on ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews and Copilot is what you need
• Works for agencies that brand client reports through Looker Studio, from Standard

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if Gemini, AI Mode or Claude matter to you, as they're paid add-ons on every plan, and all seven engines add $227 a month on Standard
• Not for you if you need white-label reports, as there aren't any
• Tight if you start on Lite, with 15 prompts, one workspace, no API or MCP, and no extra prompt packs
• Pricey if you outgrow Lite, as Standard is $160 a month yearly and extra prompts are $99 per 100, with 300 at most before Premium at $422
• Watch out: Claude is tracked through its API using the Haiku model, and crawler analytics needs server log files you upload

Pick Skillaeo if

• Fits if you want to read the exact AI answers and links behind a visibility score
• Works for teams that want llms.txt and schema drafts to check before publishing

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need daily prompt tracking, as Starter gives 25 audits a month and Pro 90
• Not for you if Perplexity or Google's AI Overviews matter, since no plan lists them
• Pricey if you need Gemini, which only Pro covers, at $83.25 a month yearly or $99.90 monthly
• Tight if you stay free: 3 audits a month on GPT alone, with 7 days of history
• Watch out: models are asked through their APIs, which the methodology says can differ from the chat apps, and used billing periods aren't refunded

Otterly.AI

• Google AI Mode and Gemini cost $9, $59 or $149 a month each by plan, and Claude $29, $109 or $439, so all seven engines on Standard add $227 a month.
• Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude are paid add-ons on every plan; Claude is tracked through its API using the Haiku model.
• Lite has one workspace; extra prompts are sold in packs of 100 on Standard and Premium only.
• There is no white-label option; the Looker Studio connector is the suggested way to brand client reports.

Skillaeo

• Audits are counted per month rather than run as daily prompt tracking: 25 on Starter and 90 on Pro.
• Free covers GPT only, Starter adds Claude and only Pro adds Gemini; no plan lists Perplexity or Google AI Overviews.
• Models are queried through their APIs via a provider called KIE, which the methodology says may differ from the consumer chat apps.
• The terms say subscription charges are generally not refunded for a billing period already used.
