Peec AI alternatives: track it or have it done
If you’re looking past Peec AI, you’ve got two kinds of options. Another tracker shows how often ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI name you, then hands you a list of things to fix. Or a team does the fixing. FirstIndex is the second kind: real changes to your site every day, AI answers tracked, $2,000 a month. Here are both, with prices.
Peec AI alternatives and their pricing
These are the trackers people name most when they look for a Peec AI alternative.
| Option | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| FirstIndex | Price: $2,000 a month | What you get: We do the work: real changes to your site every day, each checked before it goes live. AI answers tracked for you. |
| Profound | Price: Free trial, then custom pricing | What you get: “Research, write, report, and collaborate with a superintelligent teammate who knows your brand.” |
| AthenaHQ | Price: Free with $25 of credit; Starter $295 a month | What you get: “Track and Improve on AI Search,” with content recommendations and an AI agent. |
| Scrunch | Price: Core, $250 a month | What you get: AI visibility benchmarks for your brand. |
| Otterly AI | Price: Lite, €29 a month | What you get: “Analyze and optimize for AI Search.” |
| Ahrefs Brand Radar | Price: Your own prompts from $50 a month; $699 for every AI engine | What you get: Tracks the prompts you define, refreshed daily. |
| Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit | Price: $99 a month | What you get: Prompt tracking and brand reports for AI search. |
| HubSpot AEO | Price: $50 a month for 25 prompts | What you get: “Tracks your brand across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity — and tells you exactly what to fix.” |
Prices as listed on Nov 11, 2026. Otterly AI lists euros, before tax. Rankscale, PromptWatch, Radar Kit and Parse.gl are named much less often, so they’re not here. AirOps and Writesonic sell writing tools with tracking inside, which is a different comparison.
One buyer comparing Peec AI, Otterly and Profound put it plainly: “A tracker tells you that faster than guessing, but it doesn’t do the work.”

On each self-serve plan you pick 3 engines from ChatGPT, AI Mode, AI Overviews, Copilot, Gemini and Naver AI. Each extra engine costs $30, $70 or $140 a month, by plan, and Perplexity is one of the extras. Claude is on Enterprise. Paying for a year takes 15% off. Peec AI records one answer per question, per engine, per day.
For that you see how often you’re named, where you sit in the answer, how the answer describes you, which sources it used and how you compare with competitors, plus a ranked list of what to do next.
AI visibility tools vs an agency: is a tool worth it?
A tool is the cheap part. The work is where the money goes. Here’s our full plan at freelance rates, line by line: the tracker is one line of it.
At an SEO agency, the full plan runs about $25,000 a month. We do it for $2,000 a month. It’s the work from our guide to getting named in ChatGPT, done for you, and a weekly report shows what moved in search and in AI answers. For Tartan, ChatGPT went from naming them in 19% of the buyer questions we track on Oct 21, 2026, to 70% on Nov 4. See our results or what’s in the plan.
Which AI engines should you monitor?
More than you’d think, because each engine names brands the others don’t. We asked 15 buyer questions 6 times each on 5 engines, 450 answers in all, and counted the brands each engine named that no other engine did.
If you pick ChatGPT, AI Mode and Gemini for your 3 engines, you’d miss a lot: of the 485 brands named for a question in our test, 142 (29%) came only from Claude or Perplexity. And a single day’s answer isn’t steady: two runs of the same question on the same engine named only about half the same brands. So read any tracker, ours included, as a trend over weeks, engine by engine. More on that in what AI visibility is and how to measure it.
FirstIndex is the right fit if
- You’d rather get a weekly report on what moved than a to-do list.
- Your site runs on a platform or CMS we can reach.
- You sell software.
FirstIndex isn’t the right fit if
- You want a dashboard to run it yourself.
- Someone on your team already has the hours to make the changes.
- You sell to local customers or run an online store.
Questions
Does Peec AI make changes to your site?
Peec AI recommends them: pages to fix, threads to join, content gaps to close. Your team, or someone you hire, makes the changes.
Can you use Peec AI and FirstIndex together?
Yes. They don’t get in each other’s way. We track the AI answers for the questions your buyers ask as part of the plan, so you don’t need a tracker to start.
How we compared
Our numbers come from FirstIndex’s own AI answer test of Nov 10, 2026: 15 questions buyers ask when they look for an AEO or SEO agency for a software company, 6 runs each on ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity. It had no AI Overviews or Copilot and covers one topic, so treat the shares as a sample, not a rule.
Josh Pigford is the founder of FirstIndex. We do AI visibility and SEO for 30+ software companies.
Want the list done, not just tracked?
We make the changes every day. See what they’ve moved.
