PromptScout
A budget-friendly way to see whether ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity actually mention your company when people ask about your category — and get a to-do list to fix it if they don't.

Knowing you're invisible to AI search is only half the problem — the other half is figuring out what to actually do about it. PromptScout is built around that second half: it tracks whether AI assistants mention your brand for the prompts that matter to you, but instead of just handing you a dashboard of numbers, it converts what it finds into a weekly task list — specific content briefs and growth recommendations you can hand to a writer or act on yourself.
It monitors five AI providers (ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Bing Copilot) at a frequency that scales with plan tier — weekly on Starter, every 3 days on Growth, daily on Pro and Agency. Beyond mention tracking, it runs website audits with domain authority metrics, analyzes which competitors get cited instead of you and why, and integrates with Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools to correlate AI visibility with actual search performance. The Agency plan extends this to five brands at once with client-ready reporting, aimed at agencies that need to show this work to multiple clients without running five separate subscriptions.
💬 Our review
The short version: PromptScout is the cheapest serious entry point into AI-visibility tracking on this list, and its focus on actionable weekly tasks (not just raw metrics) is genuinely useful for teams without a dedicated SEO analyst to interpret the data.
At $15/month for the Starter plan, PromptScout undercuts every other AI-visibility tool in this category by a wide margin — Otterly's cheapest tier is $29/month, Rankscale's real starting point is $99/month. The tradeoff is monitoring frequency (weekly on Starter vs. daily on pricier competitors) and prompt volume (15 prompts vs. Otterly's 100 on Standard), so PromptScout is better suited to a small business tracking a handful of core queries than an enterprise brand needing granular daily data across dozens of terms. Where it earns its keep is the content-brief generation: turning "you're not being cited for X" into a specific brief a writer can execute on is closer to what Profound charges $399/month for, at a fraction of the price on PromptScout's Growth tier ($49/month). No free trial is a minor friction point, but the low Starter price makes that a small risk.
