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
Indexly tracks how AI assistants and Google's AI Overviews mention and cite a brand, alongside classic SEO checks such as indexing, site audits and backlinks. Separate agents draft articles, social posts and Reddit replies, and an analytics module ties AI referral traffic to leads. It is sold as modules or as bundled plans.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Indexly, taken from its own pages and our grades.
Modules and bundles overlap, so working out which one you need takes a while, and then there's a CMS and Search Console to connect.
- 1
Best for AI tracking with SEO, content and Reddit agents
The analytics module is free for two sites.
- 2
Paid plans start at $99 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $99 per month for 100 prompts on 3 AI models, billed monthly.
- 3
There is a free plan
Analytics module: free for 2 sites, with Google and Bing search performance, AI referral traffic, citation performance and lead analytics.
- 4
It runs on Web
Web.
- 5
AI visibility tracking
Tracks prompts daily and reports a visibility score, share of voice and sentiment, including where AI answers state things about the brand that are wrong.
- 6
Citation gap analysis
Shows which pages AI answers cite when your brand is missing, so you can see what content or listings would close the gap.
- 7
SEO and AI readiness audits
Crawls the site for technical SEO problems and checks AI crawler access, llms.txt and schema markup; it can also submit pages to Google and Bing for indexing.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 68 of 157
That is against the other AI search visibility tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace Indexly you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for AI tracking with SEO, content and Reddit agents
Indexly mixes AI answer tracking with SEO jobs like indexing and audits, and adds agents that draft articles, social posts and Reddit replies. The analytics module is free for two sites. But AI tracking starts at $99 a month for 3 models, each agent is a separate $49 to $99 module, AI Overviews and Grok come only with Scale at $499 in the bundles, and there's no trial of the paid parts.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | The AI Visibility module is $99 a month for 100 prompts on 3 models, billed monthly, with 17% off yearly. That's this category's usual range, right at its dearer quarter. Content and Social Agents are $99 more each, SEO Visibility and Forum Agents $49. |
| Free plan and trial | C | The Analytics module is free for 2 sites, with AI referral traffic and lead analytics. It doesn't show what AI answers say about you, though, and there's no trial of the paid parts. |
| Features | C | Daily visibility, share of voice and sentiment, citation gaps, SEO and AI-readiness audits, indexing, and content, social and Reddit agents. The gap the listing names: the module picks 3 models, and in the bundles Grok and AI Overviews come only with Scale. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. Modules and bundles overlap, so working out which one you need takes a while, and then there's a CMS and Search Console to connect. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It publishes to WordPress, Shopify, Webflow and Ghost, reads Google Analytics and Search Console, and drafts posts for LinkedIn and replies for Reddit. The API starts at Scale. |
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 Indexly is for
- Fits if you want AI tracking and SEO chores like audits and indexing in one account
- Works for small sites that want free AI referral analytics for up to two sites
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want Grok or AI Overviews in a bundle, as they need Scale at $499 a month
- Pricey if you want every agent, as SEO Visibility and Forum Agents add $49 a month and Content and Social Agents $99
- Not for you if you want to try the tracking before paying, since there's no trial
- Watch out: the API, white-label and custom reports start at Scale, $499 a month
- Tight if you track many engines, as the AI Visibility module picks 3 models for 2 sites and 2 countries

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 Indexly you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $1,188 a year.
What you could not
- An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
- A crawler that checks every page of a site.
- A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
- A tracking script and a database that counts every visit.
- It plugs into other products, WordPress, Shopify and Webflow among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Indexly’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.
