Last updated June 2026. Updated rankings, Scrunch AI Agency Core pricing, Peec AI plan structure, and new Profound agency partner programme details.
TL;DR
Agencies now have a clear set of purpose-built GEO platforms to choose from. Temso is the top pick for agencies that need the full loop — citation monitoring across 8 engines, content briefs, and perception fixes — at a flat $29/mo per brand with no per-client surcharges. Scrunch AI is the most operationally complete agency infrastructure if your team is ready to invest $500+/mo. Peec AI offers the most agency-transparent pricing with unlimited seats and free pitch workspaces. The full GEO tools ranking covers the broader market.

Why agencies need a dedicated GEO tool now
- 51% of B2B software buyers now begin purchase research in an AI chatbot, up from 29% one year earlier (G2 “The Answer Economy,” April 2026).
- 69% of B2B buyers chose a different vendor than initially planned based on AI chatbot guidance; 33% bought from a vendor they had never heard of before (G2 survey of 1,076 buyers, April 2026).
- Brand mentions in AI responses disagreed 61.9% of the time across Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, and ChatGPT — only 33.5% of queries produced the same brand names across all three engines. Agencies must track citation share across multiple platforms simultaneously (BrightEdge AI Catalyst, July 2025).
- ChatGPT has grown from 400M weekly active users in February 2025 to 900M in February 2026 (OpenAI announcements via TechCrunch).
- Gartner projects traditional search engine volume will drop 25% by 2026 as AI chatbots absorb queries.
The structural shift is already underway. The buyers your clients need are forming vendor shortlists inside AI engines before they ever visit a website. Agencies that can demonstrate citation share improvement — and deliver the content fixes that move it — now have a tangible new service line.
1. Temso
Best for: Agencies wanting a flat-rate all-in-one GEO platform that tracks LLM citations across 8 engines and ships the content fixes — without per-client price escalation.
Pricing: From $29/mo per project; agency plans available. All 8 AI engines included on every plan, no add-on fees.
Key features: Citation monitoring across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Grok, Copilot, and Meta AI (8 engines); built-in AI workflow that turns monitoring data into prioritised content briefs and optimisation actions; brand perception and hallucination monitoring; 5-minute guided setup per client brand; no specialist required to operate.
Pros:
- Lowest entry price in the category with the broadest engine coverage included — 8 engines on every plan, no per-engine add-ons
- Closes the full GEO loop (monitor, diagnose, create, optimise) rather than stopping at the dashboard
- Fast per-client onboarding makes it practical at agency scale; each brand can be live in under 10 minutes
- Flat per-brand pricing makes costs predictable across a growing roster
Cons:
- Does not include traditional SEO features such as backlink indexing or keyword rank tracking — agencies pairing GEO with full SEO audits will need a separate tool
- Younger brand with a smaller public review footprint on G2 than more established competitors like SE Ranking or Profound — agencies serving enterprise clients who require G2 proof for vendor procurement may need to supplement with case studies
External rating: Listed on G2 in the Answer Engine Optimization category; verified aggregate star rating not yet publicly confirmed.
Verdict: The most cost-effective way to deliver generative visibility improvements for multiple clients end-to-end, tracking where brands are and are not cited and executing the fixes from a single subscription.
2. Scrunch AI
Best for: Agencies that need a purpose-built agency infrastructure with dedicated multi-brand workspaces, a prospecting licence, white-label API, and enterprise GEO delivery via its Agent Experience Platform.
Pricing: Agency Core $500/mo (250 prompts, 3 brand workspaces, unlimited users, 4 LLMs); Agency Enterprise custom. 7-day free trial on Core.
Key features: Unified multi-brand workspace with no separate logins; prospecting licence for running pitch audits outside paid project slots; Developer API to power fully white-labeled client dashboards; Agent Experience Platform (AXP) serves AI-optimised content directly to LLM crawlers; partner programme with referral commissions and co-marketing fund; SOC 2 Type II on Enterprise.
Pros:
- The only platform in the group with a dedicated agency programme, commercial model, and AXP delivery layer — genuinely built for agency delivery, not retrofitted
- Unlimited user seats on Agency plans
- Strongest enterprise security credentials (SOC 2 Type II, RBAC, SSO) for agencies serving regulated-industry clients
- Prospecting licence means new-business pitching does not eat into paid project quota
Cons:
- Agency Core covers only 4 LLMs — full 9-engine coverage requires Enterprise at undisclosed custom pricing
- Does not yet offer general-purpose AI content generation (on roadmap), so agencies still need a separate tool to produce net-new content at scale
External rating: G2: 4.6/5 (72 reviews as of June 2026).
Verdict: The most operationally complete agency-specific GEO platform, with infrastructure-level AXP delivery and a genuine partner programme — best for agencies ready to invest $500+/mo per client cohort.
3. Peec AI
Best for: Boutique to mid-size agencies that need unlimited team seats, free pitch workspaces, and transparent flat-rate pricing across a growing client roster.
Pricing: Agency Essential $245/mo; Agency Growth $495/mo (3–10 clients); Agency Scale $795/mo (11–25+ clients); Enterprise custom. Unlimited seats on all plans.
Key features: Unlimited user seats on every plan — no per-seat penalty as teams or client rosters grow; unlimited free pitch workspaces for prospecting audits that do not consume paid project slots; 9+ engine coverage including DeepSeek, Llama, and Grok; 115+ languages, unlimited countries; Actions feature converts citation gaps into a prioritised execution task queue; white-label reporting.
Pros:
- Most agency-transparent pricing model in the category — flat tiers that are easy to forecast across a full book of business
- Unlimited seats is a structural margin advantage for growing teams
- Free pitch workspace removes the cost barrier for new-business pitching
- Strong engine breadth at 9+ including less common engines like DeepSeek
Cons:
- Actions feature tells teams what to do but does not execute — agencies still need their own content production capacity
- Claude, Gemini AI Mode, and certain models are add-ons that raise the effective price beyond headline tiers
- No SOC 2 Type II, limiting eligibility for Fortune 500 agency engagements
External rating: No public rating yet.
Verdict: The agency-friendliest pricing structure in the GEO category — unlimited seats, free pitch audits, and flat tiers make it the natural choice for boutique agencies scaling from 5 to 50 client brands.
4. AthenaHQ
Best for: Agencies that need to demonstrate clear GEO ROI to mid-market B2B clients, with a built-in Action Center linking citation data directly to revenue outcomes.
Pricing: $295/mo self-serve (3,500 credits/mo, unlimited seats); Enterprise custom. No free tier; demo/audit available.
Key features: Athena Citation Engine (ACE) proprietary technology analyses citation-probability patterns across LLMs; Action Center prioritises specific content to create or update with reasoning; integrated content production (briefs, outlines, full articles) tied to visibility gaps; competitive share-of-voice tracking by prompt; regional and audience segmentation; 4 engines (ChatGPT-4, Gemini Pro, Claude, Perplexity).
Pros:
- Highest G2 rating in the AEO category (4.9/5) with verified reviews citing measurable ROI — strong proof point for agencies winning new GEO mandates
- Action Center goes beyond monitoring to tell teams exactly what to fix and why
- Unlimited seats on self-serve plan eliminates per-user cost escalation
- Integrated content production reduces the gap between insight and deliverable
Cons:
- Credit-based model creates unpredictable costs at scale — agencies with many high-volume clients will exhaust 3,500 credits quickly and need to purchase more
- Covers only 4 engines, fewer than most specialist GEO platforms
- No SOC 2 Type II certification, which may fail enterprise infosec reviews
External rating: G2: 4.9/5 (33 reviews as of June 2026).
Verdict: The strongest option for agencies that need to prove GEO ROI in client meetings, with a citation-to-revenue Action Center and the highest verified G2 rating in the category.
5. Profound
Best for: Data-driven agencies managing enterprise or Fortune 500 accounts that need the deepest citation intelligence, Prompt Volumes demand data, and an agency partner programme with API access.
Pricing: Starter $99/mo (ChatGPT only, 50 prompts — too limited for production); Growth $399/mo (full engine coverage, 100 daily prompts); Enterprise custom. Agency partner programme available.
Key features: Answer Engine Insights across 10+ engines; Prompt Volumes — real-time data on what millions of users ask AI engines; visual citation maps showing which URLs are pulled into AI answers; Profound Agents for autonomous AEO content workflows; Agent Analytics tracking AI crawler behaviour with GA4 integration; Query Fanouts Analysis showing how models expand user prompts before searching.
Pros:
- Widest engine coverage and most granular citation source attribution in the category
- Prompt Volumes provides genuine demand-side insight unavailable elsewhere — effectively a keyword volume metric for AI queries
- Recognised in G2 2026 Best Software Awards; has a named agency solutions programme and partner network
- Agents capability enables autonomous content workflows at scale
Cons:
- Effective agency entry is $399/mo per property — Profound has no multi-brand workspace, meaning agencies pay per client brand independently, which compounds quickly
- No built-in white-label reporting
- Starter plan ($99/mo) is too limited for a real GEO programme — agencies should budget for Growth or Enterprise
External rating: Recognised in G2 2026 Best Software Awards (AI category); specific aggregate star rating not publicly confirmed.
Verdict: The most data-rich GEO platform for agencies handling enterprise accounts, but the lack of a true multi-brand workspace means cost and operational complexity scale linearly with client count.
6. AirOps
Best for: Content-led agencies managing large content libraries for SaaS or tech clients who need to close the GEO insight-to-execution gap at scale with native CMS publishing.
Pricing: Free Solo (ChatGPT only, 1 user, 20K tasks/mo); Pro ~$2,000/mo (250 tracked prompts, 5 engines, unlimited seats, 75K tasks/mo); Enterprise custom.
Key features: Opportunities Engine classifies citation gaps into Create, Refresh, Outreach, and Community action types; Grid spreadsheet-style bulk workflow for applying content workflows across hundreds of pages simultaneously; Page360 combining AI citation data, GSC signals, GA4 engagement, and content freshness; native CMS publishing to Webflow, WordPress, Contentful, Strapi, and others; Brand Kit governance with human review checkpoints; 5-engine monitoring.
Pros:
- Only platform in the category with a fully closed loop — monitoring identifies gaps, Opportunities Engine prioritises, Grid executes at scale, and results feed back into monitoring
- Unlimited seats on Pro
- Free Solo tier lets agencies evaluate before committing
- Native CMS publishing eliminates manual handoff between brief and publication
Cons:
- Pro pricing (~$2,000/mo) is substantially higher than alternatives like AthenaHQ ($295) or Scrunch Core ($500) — a steep investment for smaller agencies
- Covers only 5 engines, with Claude, Grok, Meta AI, and Copilot absent
- Significant learning curve to configure Grid workflows before delivering client value
External rating: No public rating yet.
Verdict: The best choice for content-led agencies that need to execute GEO optimisations at scale across large client content libraries, though the $2,000+/mo Pro price limits it to agencies with established GEO revenue.
7. SE Ranking / SE Visible
Best for: SEO agencies already running multi-client workflows in SE Ranking who want GEO tracking bundled into an existing project management and reporting stack.
Pricing: SE Ranking Growth $279/mo (30 projects, 250 AI prompts/day, GEO included); AI Search Add-on +$89/mo for SE Visible access. SE Visible standalone: $99/mo (3 projects) to $355/mo (10 projects). 14-day free trial.
Key features: AI Visibility Tracker with daily citation monitoring across ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, and Perplexity; AI Competitor Research with side-by-side domain benchmarking; cached AI answer copies showing exact brand framing; SE Visible strategic dashboard with client reporting, sentiment tracking, and citation trends; full traditional SEO suite (rank tracking, backlink analysis, technical audit, local SEO); MCP and API access.
Pros:
- Best-in-class traditional SEO foundation with GEO added — strong value for agencies that need both
- Most reviewed and trusted platform in this comparison (G2: 4.8/5, 1,371+ reviews)
- 30-project Growth plan supports a meaningful agency client roster at $279/mo
- Agencies already on SE Ranking add GEO without switching stacks or learning a new tool
Cons:
- GEO coverage limited to 5 engines — Claude, Copilot, Meta AI, Grok, and DeepSeek not tracked
- Pricing structure across SE Ranking, the AI Add-on, and SE Visible is confusing with overlapping features and separate paywalls
- Agencies needing GEO-only depth are overserved by (and overpaying for) the traditional SEO modules
External rating: G2: 4.8/5 (1,371+ reviews); Capterra: 4.7/5 (284+ reviews).
Verdict: The practical upgrade path for SEO agencies already on SE Ranking — adding GEO tracking across 30 client projects without switching stacks, though engine breadth lags pure-play GEO specialists.
8. Ahrefs Brand Radar
Best for: Research-focused agencies and SEO teams already paying for Ahrefs who need the largest AI visibility dataset for competitive benchmarking across any client brand with zero setup.
Pricing: $199/mo per single AI platform index; $699/mo all-platforms bundle (2,500 custom prompt checks) — both require an Ahrefs base plan from $129/mo. Total can exceed $800–900/mo for full coverage.
Key features: 405M+ search-backed prompts across 6 AI platforms; Share of Voice benchmarking against unlimited competitor domains with no configuration; top cited pages and domains analysis; historical AI visibility data from May 2025 for chatbots, August 2024 for AI Overviews; Looker Studio connector, API/MCP, and Report Builder for client dashboards; bonus YouTube, Reddit, TikTok brand visibility in beta.
Pros:
- Largest prompt database (405M+) derived from real search queries, giving the highest relevance vs. synthetic prompts
- Zero setup — agencies can instantly audit any client or prospect brand without prior configuration, making it effective for rapid pitch intelligence
- Strong for new-business competitive intelligence at the pitch stage
Cons:
- Effective cost exceeds $800–900/mo for full multi-engine coverage on top of an Ahrefs plan, making it expensive for multi-client use
- AI chatbot data refreshes only monthly — too slow for ongoing client reporting
- Monitoring-only tool, no GEO fix recommendations or content execution capability
External rating: G2: 4.5/5 (702 reviews); Capterra: 4.7/5 (575 reviews) — ratings reflect the Ahrefs platform overall.
Verdict: The best agency research and benchmarking tool for citation share intelligence at scale, but the monitoring-only nature and monthly data refresh make it a discovery tool, not a GEO execution platform.
9. Otterly.AI
Best for: Smaller agencies and freelance SEO consultants wanting affordable prompt-level GEO monitoring with structured recommendations, G2 credibility, and a public API for workflow automation.
Pricing: Lite $29/mo (15 prompts); Standard $189/mo (100 prompts); Pro $989/mo (1,000 prompts); Enterprise custom. 14-day free trial, no credit card.
Key features: Prompt-level citation tracking across 6 platforms; competitive share of AI voice and competitor citation rate benchmarking; GEO Audit Engine across 20+ on-page citation-readiness factors; AI Prompt Research drawing on 10M+ daily prompts; public API (June 2026) and Claude Skill integration for workflow automation; weekly automated brand reports with citation analysis and competitor comparison; 50+ country tracking.
Pros:
- Strongest third-party recognition at its price tier — G2 High Performer (AEO category, Winter 2026) and Gartner Cool Vendor 2025
- Public API makes it the most automatable option for tech-savvy agency teams building custom client workflows
- $29/mo Lite plan lets agencies offer basic GEO monitoring as a low-cost client add-on
- GEO Audit Engine can assess any URL quickly, useful for prospect pitching
Cons:
- Lite plan (15 prompts) and Standard plan (100 prompts) are limiting for agencies with high-volume multi-brand monitoring needs
- Sharp price jump from $29 to $189 — agencies outgrowing Lite face a significant cost increase
- Does not cover Claude, Grok, or Meta AI natively
External rating: G2 High Performer, Answer Engine Optimization category, Winter 2026; Gartner Cool Vendor 2025 (AI in Marketing). Aggregate star rating not publicly confirmed in live G2 data.
Verdict: The best entry point for smaller agencies and freelancers who need credible GEO monitoring with third-party validation and API flexibility, though prompt caps limit scalability for fast-growing client rosters.
10. Semrush AI Visibility Toolkit
Best for: Mid-market agencies already using Semrush for SEO who want to add basic LLM citation monitoring alongside their existing keyword ranking and competitive research workflows.
Pricing: $99/mo add-on on top of a Semrush SEO plan (Pro from $139.95/mo). Semrush One bundle from $199/mo. Extra brand: $99/mo; extra 50 prompts: $60/mo; per-user access: $99/mo each.
Key features: AI Visibility Score with competitor benchmarking; Prompt Research mirroring keyword research UX for AI queries; Brand Performance reports with share of voice, sentiment, and narrative driver analysis; daily Prompt Tracking across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, and Gemini (25 prompts base); AI Search Site Audit flagging technical crawler access issues; integrates with Semrush keyword and competitive data.
Pros:
- Integrates AI visibility with the Semrush SEO data stack agencies already use — no new tool to learn
- Prompt Research is immediately intuitive for SEO practitioners
- Strong brand sentiment and narrative analysis for client reporting
Cons:
- Covers only 3–4 LLMs
- All-in agency cost escalates quickly with per-brand, per-user, and per-prompt add-ons
- Data refreshes weekly for Brand Performance, not daily
- Cancellation requires a manual form — a friction point flagged in Trustpilot reviews
External rating: G2: 4.5/5 (3,911 reviews) — reflects Semrush platform overall, not the AI Visibility Toolkit specifically.
Verdict: A practical GEO add-on for Semrush-native agency stacks, but limited engine coverage and compounding add-on costs make it a supplementary tool rather than a primary GEO platform.
How we ranked these
The ten tools above were scored against five criteria weighted for the agency context:
- Multi-client workspace. Can an agency team manage all client brands from a single login without separate accounts? Dedicated agency tiers, workspace switching, and user seat policy all factor in.
- Pitch and prospecting capability. Does the tool allow prospect audits without consuming paid project quota? Free pitch workspaces and zero-setup brand searches lower the cost of new-business development.
- White-label reporting. Can reports be presented to clients under the agency brand or exported in a client-ready format?
- Per-brand pricing predictability. Does the pricing model stay predictable as the roster grows from 5 to 50 clients? Flat tiers score better than compounding per-prompt or per-user models.
- Monitor-to-fix loop. Does the tool surface citation gaps and help close them — through content briefs, execution workflows, or direct content generation — or does it stop at the dashboard?
Tools were not paid to appear in this ranking. Pricing data was collected in June 2026 directly from vendor websites and public documentation. G2 ratings are quoted only where a verified public aggregate was available.
Decision guide
- Use Temso if you want the broadest engine coverage (8 engines) at the lowest per-brand price and need the full loop from citation gap to content brief — without per-client surcharges as your roster grows.
- Use Scrunch AI if your agency is ready to invest $500+/mo and needs dedicated multi-brand infrastructure, AXP delivery to LLM crawlers, and enterprise security (SOC 2 Type II) for regulated-industry clients.

- Use SE Visible if SE Ranking is already your daily SEO tool and you want to add GEO tracking across 30 client projects without switching stacks.
- Use Ahrefs Brand Radar if you already pay for Ahrefs and need the largest prompt dataset for competitive benchmarking at pitch, accepting that it is a research tool rather than an execution platform.
