Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

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

2.4

GPA, above 125 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools we grade

PromptScout checks a set of buyer prompts in ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Bing Copilot, and records brand mentions, competitors, cited sources and the attributes AI uses to describe each brand. From the Growth plan it turns that evidence into Opportunities, such as pages to write or threads to join, with content briefs, and connects Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and AI traffic data.

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

After paying you review providers and prompts before the first check, and Agency setup goes through the team by email.

The report card

Best for weekly AI answer checks from $15 a month

PromptScout checks your prompts in ChatGPT, Gemini, Google's AI Overviews, Perplexity and Bing Copilot from $15 a month, and lists the sources and words AI uses for you and your rivals. That $15 buys 15 prompts checked once a week, though, with no to-do list or integrations. Daily checks start at $149, there's no trial, and the to-do list and integrations are still in beta.

ToolGPA report cardPromptScoutGraded Oct 24, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyAStarter is $15 a month for 15 prompts on 5 providers, under $17.40, which is 60% of where this category's cheaper quarter starts. It's a small, weekly plan, though: Growth is $49 for 30 prompts and daily checks are $149.
Free plan and trialDNo free plan and no trial, only a free one-off visibility check. The terms give a full refund within 14 days of buying, which isn't a trial.
FeaturesCMentions, share of voice, cited pages with Ahrefs Domain Rating and the words AI uses for each brand, on 5 providers. The gaps are in the listing: Starter checks weekly with no Opportunities, and Opportunities are in beta.
Ease of useCNo rating on record. After paying you review providers and prompts before the first check, and Agency setup goes through the team by email.
Platforms and integrationsBWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. From Growth it connects Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and Cloudflare or Vercel traffic, all in beta. No API is listed.
Grade point averageFair, out of 4.02.4

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 PromptScout is for

  • Fits if you want Bing Copilot and AI Overviews tracked for $15 a month
  • Works for small sites where 15 prompts checked once a week is enough

Who it is not for

  • Tight if you need more than 15 prompts or more than weekly checks, as daily starts on Pro at $149
  • Not for you if you want to try it first: there's only a free one-off check and a 14-day refund
  • Pricey if you want the Opportunities list and Search Console link, which start on Growth at $49
  • Watch out: Opportunities and the integrations are both labeled beta
  • Skip it if you need an API, as none is listed, and Agency brands are checked only weekly

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 PromptScout you could make: reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 125 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools we grade. It costs $180 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.
  • A crawler that checks every page of a site.
  • A score built from what the top results for each keyword cover.
  • It plugs into other products, Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and Cloudflare among them.

What this rests on. PromptScout’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.
