I assess marketing software through 10+ years of agency work, current product research, buyer needs, competing tools and total cost.
How this review was prepared
I've connected Temso AI's OAuth MCP server directly to an editor workflow and used the visibility tracking day to day. I rechecked every price and plan limit on Temso's live pricing page on 12 October 2026: the plans are now Core and Scale, and the entry price is far higher than it used to be.
This page may include affiliate links, meaning I may earn a commission if you sign up (at no extra cost to you).
The Verdict
Is Temso AI right for you?
Temso AI's real differentiator is that it doesn't stop at reporting a visibility gap, it points an AI agent at fixing it.
Core costs $299 a month, or $254 a month billed yearly, for one brand, 200 prompts checked daily on four engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Google AI Overview), 10 content pieces and 20 agent actions a month. The agent, the REST API and the MCP server are all on Core now, so the old split between a cheap tracking tier and a pricier agent tier is gone.
For a small business tracking one brand, that makes Temso a premium option. It fits when you want the content and fixes done for you, not when you only need a tracker.
Who It's For
Who Temso AI is for (and who it isn't)
✓ Best for
- +Businesses that want the fixes done, not just the gaps reported. Core includes 10 content pieces and 20 agent actions a month, such as content drafts and on-page fixes, so the subscription covers some of the work as well as the tracking.
- +Developers who want visibility data piped into an existing BI dashboard. The documented REST API is included on Core and Scale, along with a Looker Studio connector, so a data team can pull AI-response and brand-mention data into the dashboard it already runs.
- +Claude Code or Cursor users who want visibility data inside the editor. The OAuth MCP server lets you pull competitive rankings and visibility analytics without leaving the editor, then use the agent to draft the fix.
× Consider something else if
- −You only need lower-cost AI visibility monitoring. LLM Pulse Starter costs $59 a month, or $49 a month billed yearly, for 50 prompts on five engines with weekly checks, and it includes an MCP server. That is a fraction of Temso Core if you don't need the agent.Try LLM Pulse →
- −You want daily tracking with API and MCP on a smaller budget. PromptWatch Essential costs $95 a month for 50 prompts checked daily on four models, with API and MCP access and a 7-day trial.Try PromptWatch →
- −You want the cheapest self-serve GEO tracker for one brand. AI Peekaboo starts at $30 a month for one brand with 40 prompts on three engines, checked every two days, and it lists an MCP server.Try AI Peekaboo →
What You Can Do
What can Temso AI do?
Pull visibility data into an editor via MCP
Connect Claude Code or Cursor to Temso's OAuth MCP server to pull visibility analytics and competitive rankings without leaving the editor, then hand the gap to the agent to draft a fix.
Pipe AI-response data into an existing BI dashboard
Use the documented REST API (api.temso.ai/v1) or the Looker Studio connector, both on Core and Scale, to feed AI-response and brand-mention data into a dashboard you already run.
Let the agent draft content and fixes against a gap
The agent drafts content, on-page fixes and outreach once a visibility gap is identified, within the monthly action allowance (20 on Core, 50 on Scale). Review every draft before it ships.

AI Capabilities
AI, API and assistant workflows
An official OAuth MCP server ships on both plans
Confirmed live at app.temso.ai/api/v1/mcp, read/write with an mcp:write scope. The pricing page ticks MCP on Core and Scale.
The REST API is included from Core
api.temso.ai/v1 is OpenAPI-documented and the pricing page ticks API access on Core and Scale. The catch is the entry price: programmatic access starts at $299 a month, or $254 a month billed yearly.
The AI agent is on both plans, with a monthly cap
Core includes 20 agent actions and 10 content pieces a month, and Scale includes 50 of each. Extra content comes in top-ups of 10 pieces for $49.
Pricing
How much does Temso AI cost?
Temso Core costs $299 a month on monthly billing, or $254 a month billed yearly, for one brand and 200 prompts. There is no free plan.
| Plan | Monthly |
|---|---|
| CorePopular | $299/mo |
| Scale | $999/mo |
Temso sells two brand plans. Core is $299 a month on monthly billing, or $254 a month billed yearly. Scale is $999 a month, or $849 a month billed yearly. Both cover one brand, 200 prompts with daily runs, unlimited users and competitors, the API, MCP and Looker Studio. Core runs on four engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Google AI Overview, which includes AI Mode), with Claude, Perplexity and Grok as paid add-ons whose price the pricing page doesn't show. Scale includes all seven engines, on-demand prompt runs, white-label reports, 50 content pieces and 50 agent actions a month. Extra prompts cost $75 a month per pack of 50. Agency pricing sits on a separate page that I haven't reviewed here.
Price Temso against what the agent replaces
At $254 to $299 a month for one brand, Core only makes sense if the 10 content pieces and 20 agent actions replace work you would otherwise pay a writer or an agency for. If you only want tracking, a monitoring tool costs a fraction of that.
Check whether you need Claude, Perplexity or Grok
Core covers ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Google AI Overview. Claude, Perplexity and Grok are paid add-ons on Core and included on Scale, and the add-on price isn't on the pricing page, so ask before you commit.
Payments are non-refundable
Temso's terms say all payments are non-refundable unless otherwise stated. You can start for free without a card, but the trial length isn't stated, so test the agent on your own site before the first charge.
Alternatives
When I'd choose something else
Three different buying priorities, and what I'd pick instead for each one.
Lower-cost monitoring with MCP included
LLM Pulse
For a buyer who wants AI visibility monitoring and MCP access from $59 a month, or $49 a month billed yearly, on the Starter plan.
Trade-off: Starter checks prompts weekly unless you pay more for daily runs, and LLM Pulse does not replace Temso's content and fix agent.
Explore LLM Pulse for this use case →Daily tracking with API and MCP access
PromptWatch
For a team that wants 50 prompts checked daily with API and MCP access from $95 a month, with a 7-day trial.
Trade-off: PromptWatch is centred on visibility, citations and reporting rather than Temso's agent-led content and outreach fixes.
Explore PromptWatch for this use case →Straightforward self-serve GEO monitoring
AI Peekaboo
For a buyer who wants brand and prompt monitoring for one brand from $30 a month and a simpler purchasing path.
Trade-off: AI Peekaboo checks prompts every two days on its entry setup and does not provide Temso's execution agent.

Limitations to consider before subscribing
A premium price for one brand
Core costs $299 a month, or $254 a month billed yearly, and Scale still covers only one brand. For a small business that only needs tracking, that is several times the price of a monitoring tool.
Three engines cost extra on Core
Claude, Perplexity and Grok are paid add-ons on Core, and the pricing page doesn't show their price. All seven engines are included only on Scale at $999 a month, or $849 a month billed yearly.
No refunds and no stated trial length
You can start without a card, but the trial length isn't stated and the terms say payments are non-refundable.
Thin third-party review volume
As a newer entrant, no G2 or Capterra reviews were found during this research, so independent validation is limited.
Temso's own affiliate program status is unresolved
A footer link exists but the specific affiliates path returned a 404 during this research; treat commercial-partnership status as unconfirmed rather than assuming one exists.
My Recommendation
Buy it for the agent, not for tracking alone
Shortlist Temso AI when you want an agent that drafts content and fixes against AI-visibility gaps, and $299 a month, or $254 a month billed yearly, for one brand fits your budget.
Choose LLM Pulse for lower-cost monitoring with MCP, PromptWatch for daily tracking with API and MCP access, or AI Peekaboo for the cheapest self-serve GEO tracking.
What to check during the trial
- –Check whether you need Claude, Perplexity or Grok, and get the add-on price before you commit to Core
- –Test the OAuth MCP server inside Claude Code or Cursor to see how the visibility data actually surfaces in your workflow
- –Review a sample of agent-drafted content or fixes carefully before letting anything ship
- –Use the free start to judge the agent's output on your own site, since payments are non-refundable
