Askadia vs Scrunch: enterprise AI visibility or a $29 tracker for founders?
Scrunch watches how AI assistants talk about your brand and how AI agents read your site, for enterprise teams and agencies; it's been part of Sitecore since June 2026 and starts at $250 a month. Askadia tracks what ChatGPT and Google's AI recommend, for founders of software products, built so their coding agent can work through it with them. If you run a large site and care how AI agents crawl it, Scrunch; if you want to know which products they recommend instead of yours, on a small budget, Askadia.
Who wrote this: we make Askadia. Every price and feature comes from each vendor's own website, checked on October 31, 2026, linked where it's stated; the numbers about what ChatGPT recommends come from the same buying questions we ask it for every tool, three times a week, live.

How they differ
- Price and what it buys: Scrunch's Core is $250 a month for 125 prompts and 5,000 answers on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Copilot, in one country, with five competitors (Scrunch pricing); Claude, Gemini, AI Mode, Grok and Meta AI are on Enterprise. Askadia is one plan with everything included: $29 for 2,000 ChatGPT answers, any number of questions and competitors, and answers are all you pay for.
- Schedule: Scrunch asks a new prompt daily for 14 days, then every 72 hours, and you can refresh any time (Scrunch FAQ). Askadia asks each question on the days you choose: every day, weekdays, Mon/Wed/Fri, weekly or any days you pick.
- How the numbers count: Scrunch shows presence, position by thirds of the answer, sentiment and share of voice, and smooths them over 90 days; its personas add a description of the buyer to each prompt (Scrunch FAQ). Askadia asks your buyers' questions as written and counts questions as x of n, with every answer in full.
- Your site and AI agents: Scrunch's Core shows AI bot traffic and audits five pages a month; on Enterprise its Agent Pages serve AI agents a version of your site built for them. Askadia shows the pages each assistant read, yours and others', and leaves site changes to you.
- Agents: Scrunch's API, Looker Studio and MCP are on Enterprise in its pricing table. Askadia's API, MCP server and agent skill are included in its one plan, built so an agent can do everything you can in the app except the plan and the team: review your questions and suggest better ones, pause, resume and reschedule them, read every answer and its raw page, and add your pages elsewhere so their citations count (Askadia's API docs).
Where Scrunch is better
- Four assistants on Core, nine on Enterprise; Askadia tracks three: ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode (AI Mode is on Scrunch's Enterprise).
- How AI agents see your site: bot traffic, site audits, and Agent Pages on Enterprise.
- Personas, funnel stages, AI referral traffic from GA4, topic-level search volume, and a Sitecore integration for large content teams.
Where Askadia is better
- Your agent works the whole loop with you: it goes through the questions you lose, reads every raw answer behind them, makes a plan, and carries it out on your word: questions added, paused or resumed, competitors tracked, names merged, feedback sent. You decide; it does the legwork.
- A schedule that moves with you: each question on its own schedule on each assistant, changed any time by you or your agent, daily for a baseline or a launch and Mon/Wed/Fri in between.
- Built for products: buying questions, the top pick, who each assistant recommends instead, and the pages it read.
- Everything on one plan, the API and MCP server too: $29 a month against $250, with no limit on questions or competitors.
- A free checkup before you pay: 10 questions, every answer in full, no sign-up and no card.
Which ones ChatGPT recommends: our own data
We ask ChatGPT 40 questions buyers ask about AI visibility tools, the same ones for every tool, on Mon, Wed, Fri: in the ChatGPT app, logged out, from the US, a new chat each time. A tool counts for a question when most of that question's answers recommend it, as the top pick or an option. The questions were published before its first answer, and every answer is public, word for word.
| Tool | Last 7 days | Last 28 days |
|---|---|---|
| Scrunch | recommended in 13 of 40 | recommended in 13 of 40 |
| Askadia (ours) | recommended in 0 of 40 | recommended in 0 of 40 |
Questions, counted when most of their answers recommend the tool; since November 11, 2026. Under 28 days of answers so far, so this shows who's recommended more than the exact order. Every tool, every question and every answer.
Which to pick
Pick Scrunch if you're an enterprise team or agency, how AI agents read your site matters to you, and you need several assistants and markets.
Pick Askadia if you build a software product, ChatGPT and Google are where your buyers ask, and you want to start for $29 a month with an API your agent can use.
Questions
What can an AI agent do in Askadia?
Give Claude Code, Cursor or any agent one line, the docs address, and approve it once; or add Askadia's MCP server to Claude Code or Cursor, or as a connector in Claude.ai or ChatGPT, which signs in without a key to copy. Then it can:
- Work through what you lose: find the questions where an assistant leaves you out, read every answer behind them down to the raw page, and come back with a plan for you to approve.
- Review your questions on four checks (a real buyer, neutral wording, specific, the way buyers ask), say which are good and which need work, and suggest questions to add, pause or replace. You accept, edit or dismiss each one, in Reviews or in the chat.
- Add, pause and resume questions, and set each one's assistants and how often on each: daily for a baseline, Mon/Wed/Fri once it's steady, daily again for a launch or campaign.
- Read every number and every answer word for word on each assistant: the products named in order, the pages cited, Google's top 10 beside each AI Overview, and each answer's raw page as it reached us, to check our reading or run its own analysis.
- Find the questions you lose and to whom, and compare the pages each assistant cites with yours.
- Sort which products are your competitors, count two names of one product as one, and add your pages elsewhere, like an app-store listing, so their citations count.
- Propose a correction when an answer was read wrong, send us feedback (we reply to it), and keep the site's notes for the next agent.
With no account, it runs your free checkup and signs you up: you enter an emailed code and pay. The plan and your answers are always your click. It's all in the $29 plan, and reading is unlimited (the agent docs).
