Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 68 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools we grade
Chatbeat, from the makers of the Brand24 media monitoring tool, tracks how often and in what position a brand appears in AI chatbot answers, how it is described and which sources the answers draw on. It suggests prompts to track, benchmarks competitors and recommends actions. Plans are priced by the number of prompts and AI models tracked.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Chatbeat, taken from its own pages and our grades.
There are suggested prompts, but you still pick prompts and competitors and learn the dashboards before the numbers mean much.

The report card
Best for AI answer tracking with suggested prompts
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.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| 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. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Chatbeat is for

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of Chatbeat you could make: reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $1,188 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Chatbeat’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
