What it costs to monitor your visibility in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI
Prices and limits as of 10 September 2026. Billed in USD (your card issuer converts). This page is the reference; the homepage summarises it.
Short answer. Monitoring costs $89, $169 or $349 a month depending on engines and features; every plan runs weekly and starts with a baseline run on the day you subscribe. There are no usage fees inside a plan; the only extras are listed in section 3. Cancel any month. Not ready to subscribe: a free audit (no card) shows your current baseline, and a $39 one-time Full Audit goes deeper (+$9 per extra service area).

"ChatGPT" in the product means the GPT-4o model family accessed through OpenAI's API with web search (currently gpt-4o-mini), not the consumer app. Google AI Mode answers are read as an additional source on monitoring plans since 8 September 2026. Claude is queried in the one-time Full Audit and in our public noise panel, not in client monitoring. Details of every engine and the detection rule: methodology.

5. What you are buying, and what you are not
You buy measurement and a fix loop: the same buying questions asked to the same engines every week, the sources they cite, what changed, and a before/after read against the engines' own day-to-day noise. You do not buy a citation. No one can guarantee one; we say so in the disclaimer and we publish our own zero in the research study.
