AI Search Visibility (GEO) pricing at your prompt count

Use my pricing calculator to see how Profound compares with other AI Search Visibility (GEO) software at the prompt count you actually need. Every tool here is priced at the same volume, which is the comparison a vendor’s own pricing page cannot make.

prompts

At 50 prompts, Profound costs $99/mo on Starter, which is #6 of 11 in AI Search Visibility (GEO).

Priced in another currency, so listed separately rather than ranked:

The vendor’s own price is on the left. The dollar figure is my conversion at rates taken on 2026-08-06, shown only to give a sense of scale. These vendors do not set their dollar price by converting, so the approximation is not what you would be charged and is not used for ranking.

Some tools do not publish a price at exactly 50 prompts. Those show the next tier up, which is what you would actually pay: SE Visible at 200, Sorank at 300, Searchable at 100, Otterly.AI at 100, Scrunch AI at 125, Goodie at 100.

Editorial

My take on Profound pricing

Joonas Rotko
Joonas RotkoAuthor & founder of That Marketing Buddy

Profound's pricing is more transparent than most tools at this level, which I respect. But read the tiers as a coverage ladder, not a feature ladder. The $99 Starter is real, but it only tracks ChatGPT. The minute you want to see how Perplexity or Google's AI Overviews describe you, you are on Growth at $399 a month.

So for most brands serious about AI search, Growth ($399) is the actual entry point, and the all-engine view you want for competitive work lives on custom Enterprise. Budget accordingly: this is a $399-and-up tool with a $99 doorway.

Verdict

Transparent pricing, but it is a $399-and-up tool

Profound earns points for publishing its prices, which is rare at this level. Just do not let the $99 Starter set your budget: it only tracks ChatGPT. Real multi-engine GEO starts at $399 a month on Growth, and full coverage of all 10 engines means a custom Enterprise quote. If you only need one engine, a lighter monitor like Otterly will cost you a fraction.

If AI search is a board-level metric, the price is fair for what is the deepest dataset in the category.
