The best Profound alternatives in 2026

Third-party price trackers say Profound used to show Starter and Growth prices for brands. They report that it removed them in mid-September 2026. Today the pricing page lists a free Trial and a custom Enterprise plan. It publishes no dollar amounts for brands.

The Trial runs for 7 days on ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. You cannot edit its prompts. To track Claude, Perplexity or Copilot, you need an Enterprise quote.

Profound is a strong product. It tracks daily, reads the consumer apps, and lists 9 engines on Enterprise. It also has crawler analytics, prompt volume data and ChatGPT Shopping tracking.

List the parts you actually use before you choose. Then compare each tool on those parts and on price.

This is ours, and it is our pick. It shows its price, unlike Profound for brands. You can start free with a snapshot after you sign in. It needs no card.

Each scan asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude. Claude and Perplexity come with every plan. We write buyer-intent prompts for you, and you can edit them.

Then you act on what you see. The Reddit agent finds threads about your topic and drafts replies. Rank on socials turns your articles into short videos for YouTube.

Peec AI tracks prompts every day and shows its price. Its docs say it reads most engines through the consumer interfaces, as Profound does.

Starter gives you 50 prompts and 3 models for $95 a month. Pro gives you 150 prompts for $245. It also offers agent analytics, AI Shopping tracking and CSV exports.

Each extra model costs more, from $35 a month on Starter. The API and Claude are Enterprise only.

Scrunch suits teams that want large prompt sets without an enterprise contract. Starter includes 350 custom prompts, 1,000 industry prompts and 3 seats. Its pricing page lists Claude, Meta and the Google AI surfaces.

It also tracks agent traffic, which means visits from AI crawlers. Starter has a 7-day trial with no card. The Data API is Enterprise only.

AthenaHQ lists 11 engines. They include Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, Meta AI and Mistral. Every plan has unlimited seats, and it offers CSV export.

Its free Essential plan gives you 300 credits to test it. The pricing page does not state how often it refreshes. The API is a paid add-on.

If your team already works in Semrush, the toolkit is the easy add. Prompt tracking updates daily. Semrush says it captures real consumer responses, not API answers.

It includes 25 tracked prompts, prompt research with volume data, and CSV export. Claude and Copilot are not in the standard toolkit. Each extra seat costs another $99.

Otterly.AI offers daily tracking at a low price. It reruns every prompt daily. Its help center says it reads answers through each engine's public website, except Claude.

Lite caps you at 15 prompts and 1 workspace. Standard gives you 100 prompts, an API and agent analytics for $189 a month. The trial lasts 7 days and needs no card.

Rankscale covers 9 engines, including Claude, Copilot and the Google AI surfaces. You schedule runs from hourly to monthly. Every plan has unlimited seats.

It charges by credit, so costs rise as you add engines, regions or clients. The REST API starts on Pro+ at $229 a month. Pro has a 7-day trial.

Brand Radar suits teams that already pay for Ahrefs. It has a pre-built index of hundreds of millions of prompts. You can look up any brand with no setup and see its AI share of voice. Share of voice means how often you appear compared with your competitors.

It also monitors Reddit, YouTube and TikTok visibility, free while in beta. API and MCP come with every core plan. It has no free trial, and custom prompts cost extra.

For most teams leaving Profound, we pick AISEO. It shows its price, and you can start free with no card.
