What each option is for

Read the job, the documented strengths and the limitation before trying a tool.

AIGROW

Monitoring of your buyer questions, with fixes done for you when you want them

Visit AIGROW

AIGROW monitoring plans put your buyer questions to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Grok through their model APIs and save every answer, with the businesses each one names. Watch checks 10 questions a month for one site; Act checks 30 questions a week and tracks 3 competitors; Operate covers 3 sites with 5 competitors each. A site’s questions can be split into markets, each in one of 11 languages with an optional place. Fixes such as listings, schema or a Google Business Profile are separate jobs at a fixed price.

Best reason to choose it
A stronger fit for a local business or a small agency that wants a short list of buyer questions checked in its own language, at a flat monthly price, with the option to have the fixes done.
Check before you choose
AIGROW reads four assistants through their APIs, so answers in a public app can differ with location, account and date. It does not track Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode or Copilot, and no tool can guarantee a mention.

SE Ranking

An SEO platform that tracks AI answers, in its suite and in SE Visible

Visit SE Ranking

SE Ranking’s SEO plans include AI visibility tracking of 25 prompts daily on five AI engines, next to rank tracking, site audits, backlink research and local SEO tools. Its separate AI visibility product, SE Visible, tracks 75 prompts daily on Basic, 200 on Core and 1,000 on Agency across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Copilot, read the way a user sees them. It adds citation and source analysis, sentiment, share of voice, unlimited seats and competitors, and API and MCP access.

Best reason to choose it
A stronger fit for an SEO team or agency that wants hundreds of prompts tracked daily on Google’s AI results and Copilot as well as ChatGPT and Gemini, next to the rankings and audits it already runs.
Check before you choose
Each location counts as a separate tracked prompt, and Basic covers one location per project. SE Visible’s FAQ lists Claude, asked without web search, on Agency, while its plan table marked Claude as coming soon; for Grok or another model, it asks buyers to contact it about Enterprise.

Sorank

Autopilot SEO articles and backlinks, with monthly AI mention tracking

Visit Sorank

Sorank writes, illustrates and publishes SEO articles on your site every month, 20 on Essential, 60 on Pro and 120 on Business, through 10+ CMS, with keyword research, backlinks and automatic technical SEO fixes. Its AI mention tracking asks each tracked prompt to every assistant once a month, for one market and one language: 10 prompts on ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini on Essential, 20 on Pro and 50 on Business, both adding Grok. Backlinks come from exchanges between Sorank users’ sites and, on Pro and Business, from monthly backlink credits. Pro and Business add a dedicated SEO and GEO specialist and a monthly PDF report, and agencies can resell Sorank under their own brand.

Best reason to choose it
A stronger fit for a small business or agency that wants SEO articles written and published every month, with backlinks and AI mention tracking in the same subscription.
Check before you choose
AI prompts are checked once a month, for one market and one language, and Grok comes with Pro. Each site needs its own subscription, with volume discounts from 2 sites. The pricing page lists four assistants for tracking, so Perplexity and Google’s AI results are not among them.

Surfer

AI visibility tracking next to a content editor and content audits

Visit Surfer

Surfer’s AI Search Analytics plan tracks 50 prompts daily across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews, with mention gaps, brand sentiment and 5 brand spaces, and sells 100 or 200 prompts at higher prices. Its content plans add a content editor, content audits, a topical map and keyword research: Standard tracks 25 prompts weekly on ChatGPT only, Pro 50 prompts daily on all five, and Peace of Mind 100 prompts daily with API access. Its pricing FAQ says Surfer works with all languages.

Best reason to choose it
A stronger fit for a content or SEO team that wants to write and refresh the pages AI answers cite, with daily tracking of Perplexity and Google’s AI results in the same account.
Check before you choose
Standard tracks ChatGPT only, once a week, and Discovery tracks no AI prompts. Claude and Grok are not in the tracking list on the pricing page. Yearly plans are paid upfront for the year, and the pricing page showed prices in euros when we checked.

How we made this comparison

Published by AIGROW, which is included in this guide. We reviewed public product pages, pricing pages and help documentation, not paid accounts, and each profile shows the date we checked it. The roundup lists tools alphabetically, with no overall ranking or performance score. Recommendations are our assessment of fit, not hands-on benchmarks. Features and access can change; confirm requirements with each provider.

For a useful trial, use the same business, buyer questions, country and language. Inspect the answers and cited pages where available. Keep the date and collection settings with your results.

Best AI visibility tools in 2026

Before choosing a tool

AIGROW checks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Grok on every plan, and Sorank’s pricing page lists Claude on Essential and adds Grok on Pro. Search Atlas lists Claude from Pro, and Grok is not in its pricing page’s list. Engine lists change, so check each pricing page on the day you buy.

AIGROW monitoring checks your buyer questions, and AIGROW sells the fixes, such as listings, schema or a Google Business Profile, as jobs done for you at a fixed price. Your team does not need to write articles or run audits to act on the results.

No. A tool can measure sampled answers, identify issues or help you plan changes. It does not control what an assistant recommends. Track whether relevant answers change after the work, and record the questions, settings and dates used.

Use one real client, a fixed set of buyer questions and an agreed reporting period. Check the raw responses, countries, languages, exports and account permissions you need. Ask who will implement changes after each report, and measure the time needed to produce a useful client update.
