Chatbeat, from the makers of Brand24, tracks where you show up in AI answers, how you're described, which sites the answers lean on and what to do next, and it suggests prompts to track. But Essential is $99 a month for 30 prompts on three engines with 1 project and 2 seats, Gemini and Copilot wait for $299, and Claude and the API are Enterprise only. - **Value for money: C.** Essential is $99 a month for 30 prompts on ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, with 1 project and 2 seats. That's where this category's dearer quarter starts. Gemini, Copilot and AI Mode need Advanced at $299. - **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 10-day free trial that needs no credit card. After that, the cheapest plan is $99 a month. - **Features: B.** It covers the whole job: how often and where you're named, your share against rivals, suggested prompts, the sources answers draw on, sentiment and recommended actions. Engines are the catch, as Essential reads only three of the six. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. There are suggested prompts, but you still pick prompts and competitors and learn the dashboards before the numbers mean much. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only. Looker Studio is the one connection listed, and the API is kept for the custom-priced Enterprise plan. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $1,188 a year. - You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept. - You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
