If the job is a ChatGPT visibility tracker or an LLM rank tracker, three things matter before anything else: which engines the plan really covers, how many answers your money collects, and how often the tool checks. This ranking puts 70% of the weight there.
Read the engine column closely. Several tools list seven or more engines on the pricing page, then let you run three at a time on the entry plan. We count what the entry plan tracks at once.

Best use, three strengths and the catch for each, with the price read on Nov 14, 2026.
Best for: buyers who want every engine without a per-engine upsell.
The catch: Everything runs on credits and engines burn them at different rates, so the real prompt count depends on your mix.
Free trial of Pro; its length is not stated on the pricing page
Best for: small teams that want every model and an API at entry level.
The catch: One project on Essential, and content tools start at $245.
Free trial; its length is not stated on the pricing page
Best for: getting the most tracked prompts per dollar on a daily schedule.
The catch: Two products, one name: the tracker inside SE Ranking has 25 prompts, the standalone SE Visible has the plans above. And no Perplexity.
14-day free trial, no credit card
Best for: solo marketers and small teams starting on a small budget.
The catch: Lite stops at 20 prompts and cannot buy extra credits. The next step up is $189.
7-day free trial, no credit card
Best for: enterprise teams with a budget and a sales call to spare.
The catch: No public price. After the 7-day trial the only paid plan is Enterprise, quoted by sales.
Free 7-day trial (50 prompts, 3 engines)
Best for: marketing teams who want a clean daily tracker with unlimited seats.
The catch: Three models per plan. A fourth engine is a paid add-on, and Claude only comes with Enterprise.
Free trial offered; its length is not stated on the pricing page
Best for: sEOs who think in keywords, not prompts.
The catch: Weekly refresh, not daily, and the $79 price is flagged as limited-time.
Free account, then a 7-day free trial of the paid plan
Best for: teams that want every major engine and a content agent in one plan.
The catch: $295 a month buys 3,600 AI responses, and the API is a paid add-on on top.
Free Essential plan with 300 credits
Best for: sEOs who want Google rankings and AI citations in the same report.
The catch: Prices are listed in euros, and 1,500 AI answers a month is a small allowance for EUR 99.
14-day free trial, no credit card
Best for: brands that want visibility tracking wired to ChatGPT ads.
The catch: The jump from Starter to Pro is $60 to $800 a month billed annually, and Starter has no data download.
No free trial of the tracker stated; the Ads Agent is free for the first 7 days
Weights for this ranking: engines covered 30%, price per 1,000 answers 20%, refresh schedule 20%, entry price 10%, insight depth 10%, data access 5%, try before you pay 5%.
The data is the same as in the main AI visibility tools ranking: prices, plan limits and engine lists read on each vendor's official page. No vendor pays for its place, and a tool without an affiliate program is ranked like the others.
It sends a fixed list of prompts to large language models on a schedule, stores every answer and counts how often your brand is named, where it ranks in the answer and which sources are cited. That history is what turns one-off checks into a trend.
Rankscale, AthenaHQ, Promptwatch and LLMrefs list all four on their first paid plan. Peec AI and Otterly AI let you pick three engines; Claude is Enterprise-only at Peec AI and costs three credits per answer at Otterly AI.
Otterly AI recommends 50 to 100 prompts per topic or market and says its own stability study found that 100 daily prompts cut the swing in brand coverage by about 73% compared with 10. Below 50 prompts, expect noisy charts.
For a brand that reports weekly or monthly, weekly checks are often enough and stretch a budget: Otterly AI says weekly tracking covers roughly seven times more prompts for the same credits. Daily matters when you ship changes often and want to see the effect fast.
