Geneo review (2026): is it worth $39.9 a month?
Low-cost AI visibility tracker paid for in monthly or prepaid credits
Geneo report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for pay-as-you-go AI visibility checks
Geneo tracks how ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity mention, rank and describe your brand, with competitor and source comparisons and content tips. Pro is $39.9 a month for 1,000 credits, or you can buy a pack instead. But the page never says what a credit buys, only four engines are named, no API or integration is on record, and agency features sit on plans with no price shown.
Who Geneo is for
- Fits if you only watch the four engines it names and want to buy credits without a subscription
- Works for small brands that want sentiment tracked and wrong claims flagged
Who Geneo is not for
- Skip it if you need to know what you're buying, as the page doesn't say what a credit covers
- Too light for teams who want Claude, Copilot or AI Mode tracked, since only four engines are named
- Not for you if you need an API or integrations, as none are listed
- Watch out: the trial's 50 credits are a one-off and don't renew
- Watch out: white-label reports and client portals sit on agency plans whose prices aren't shown
Why Geneo gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyPro is $39.9 a month for 1,000 credits, in this category's usual range, and a 1,000-credit pack is $50 once, valid for 12 months. But the page doesn't say what one credit buys, so it's hard to set against prompt-priced rivals.
- CFree plan and trialNo free plan, but a free trial with 50 one-time credits and one workspace, no card needed. The credits don't renew.
- CFeaturesMention and citation rates, share of voice against competitors, citation source discovery, sentiment with wrong claims flagged, and content tips. The gap the listing names: only four engines are named, and no crawler or traffic data is on record.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. Working out how far 1,000 credits go is guesswork until you've run a few checks.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no desktop or phone app and no integrations or API on record. White-label reports and client portals sit on agency plans whose prices aren't shown.

Keep it
Nothing Geneo does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 2 things listed below take a company.
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 $478.80 a year.
What you could not
- The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
What this rests on. Geneo’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.
What is Geneo?
Geneo tracks how a brand is mentioned, ranked and described in answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity. It compares the brand with competitors, finds the sources AI answers cite and gives content recommendations for improving visibility. Usage is paid for in credits, either through a monthly Pro plan or prepaid packs.
Worth knowing
- The pricing page does not say how many credits a prompt check uses, so it is hard to compare plans with prompt-based tools.
- Only four AI engines are named: ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity.
- The free trial gives 50 credits once; they do not renew each month.
- White-label reports, custom domains and client portals are only on agency plans, whose prices are not shown on the brand pricing page.
