Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

2.0

GPA, above 29 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools we grade

DemandSphere is a search intelligence platform that tracks Google rankings and AI answers side by side. Each plan has a daily tracking budget that can go to Google keywords or AI prompts, and prompts are checked across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews. Enterprise customers can add log analysis and a BigQuery data pipeline.

To get you started, here are 8 things to know about DemandSphere, taken from its own pages and our grades.

  1. 1

    Best for Google rankings and AI answers tracked side by side

    DemandSphere tracks your Google rankings and AI answers in the same tool, from one daily budget you split between keywords and prompts, checked daily on five AI engines.

  2. 2

    Paid plans start at $79 a month

    As its pricing page puts it: $79 per month for 100 prompts a day, billed annually ($95 billed monthly).

  3. 3

    It runs on Web

    Web.

  4. 4

    Shared keyword and prompt budget

    Each plan's daily volume can go to Google keywords, AI prompts or any mix, at a fixed rate of one prompt for ten keywords.

  5. 5

    AI answer monitoring

    Every plan tracks prompts daily across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews, with citation, brand mention and prompt research.

  6. 6

    Rank tracking and SERP analytics

    Daily Google rankings by device and location in 200+ markets, pixel depth on the page, 65+ SERP feature types and share of voice.

  7. 7

    A 2.0 GPA, above 29 of 157

    That is against the other AI search visibility tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.

  8. 8

    Keep it

    To replace DemandSphere you would be making search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card

Best for Google rankings and AI answers tracked side by side

DemandSphere tracks your Google rankings and AI answers in the same tool, from one daily budget you split between keywords and prompts, checked daily on five AI engines. But each prompt uses up ten keywords of budget, there's no free plan or trial, only demos, scheduled reports start at Pro for $208 a month yearly, and SSO needs Enterprise.

ToolGPA report cardDemandSphereGraded Oct 23, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyCStarter is $79 a month billed yearly, or $95 monthly, for 100 prompts a day or 1,000 keywords, with unlimited users and domains and the API. That's above this category's middle, with daily checks and no seat fees.
Free plan and trialFNothing free at all. The pricing page mentions no free plan or trial, and offers demos instead.
FeaturesBDaily AI answer checks with citations and mentions on five engines, Google rank tracking in 200+ markets with 65+ SERP features, replays of past results and AI answers, dashboards and alerts. It covers the whole job, and Google rankings on top.
Ease of useCNo rating on record. You split one daily budget between keywords and prompts, at 10 keywords per prompt, and set up dashboards before it all comes together.
Platforms and integrationsBWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to Search Console, GA4, Google Drive, Slack, Looker Studio and BigQuery, and every plan has API access.
Grade point averageFair, out of 4.02.0

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 DemandSphere is for

  • Fits if you want Google rankings and AI answers in one tool and one bill
  • Works for data teams who pull search data into their own BI setup over the API

Who it is not for

  • Not for you if you want to try it before paying, as there's no free plan or trial, only demos
  • Tight if you track lots of prompts, since each one uses up ten keywords of budget
  • Pricey if you want scheduled reports, which start at Pro for $208 a month billed yearly
  • Skip it if you need SSO, log analysis or BigQuery without an Enterprise contract
  • Watch out: using its data to ground or train AI models needs a separate paid license

Good to know

Good for

  • SEO teams that want Google rankings and AI answers tracked in one tool
  • Companies with many users or domains, since neither is capped
  • Data teams that pull search data into their own BI stack

Worth knowing

  • No free plan or free trial is mentioned on the pricing page; it offers demos instead.
  • The daily budget is shared, so each tracked prompt uses up ten keywords of volume.
  • Data Studio templates and scheduled email reports start at Pro; SSO, log analysis and BigQuery need Enterprise.
  • Using its data to ground or train AI models needs a separate license with its own fees.

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

To replace DemandSphere you would be making search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 90 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools grade higher. It costs $948 a year.

What you could not

  • Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
  • The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
  • Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
  • Millions of server log lines read to see what search bots crawl.
  • Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
  • It plugs into other products, Google Search Console, Google Analytics 4 and Google Drive among them, and has an API.
  • The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

What this rests on. DemandSphere’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.
