I'm the head of marketing at a 500-person software company. Leadership wants a monthly report on our visibility in AI search across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity compared with three competitors. Which platform should we use?

One of the questions behind AI visibility tools ChatGPT recommends, asked in Google's AI Mode on Mon, Wed, Fri (logged out, from the US, a new chat each time). Kind: long.

1. Nov 12, 2026 ZipTie, Otterly.AI, Peec AI, Semrush, Ahrefs Brand Radar, Similarweb

   Tracking how a 500-person software company shows up across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity (known as Generative Engine Optimization or AEO) requires specialized tools that run custom prompts through these AI interfaces repeatedly to measure share of voice, sentiment, and source citations. reddit.com zapier.com

   The top platforms for this reporting depend on your existing stack, budget, and appetite for depth:

   Dedicated AI Visibility & GEO Tools

   • ZipTie (Best for deep analysis & reporting)
     Great for structured tracking of prompt performance, competitor share of voice, and granular breakdown across modern LLM interfaces. Pricing typically starts around $35.63/mo. zapier.com

   • OtterlyAI (Best for lean/budget-conscious teams)
     A straightforward, cost-effective tracker (~$29/mo) that monitors brand mentions and visibility scores without heavy enterprise overhead. zapier.com

   • Peec AI (Best for actionable recommendations)
     Focuses not just on whether you appear, but why competitors rank higher, offering diagnostic suggestions for your content team (~$95/mo). zapier.com

   • Semrush (AI Visibility Toolkit) (Best if you already use Semrush)
     If your team already lives in Semrush for traditional SEO, their native AI toolkit integrates LLM share-of-voice tracking directly into your workflow (~$99/mo). zapier.com

   • Ahrefs (Brand Radar) (Best if you already use Ahrefs)
     Similar to Semrush, Ahrefs offers brand radar capabilities to monitor how your software is cited and talked about in AI engine responses (~$199/mo). zapier.com

   • Similarweb (GEO Tracking) (Best for side-by-side SEO & AI reporting)
     Combines traditional search market share with generative engine tracking, though it is usually enterprise-priced by request. zapier.com

   Tip for leadership reporting: Because AI models yield non-deterministic (varying) answers when asked the same prompt twice, make sure whatever tool you pick runs a weighted batch of core buyer prompts repeatedly rather than a single manual test. reddit.com

   To narrow this down for your team:

   • Do you already use Semrush or Ahrefs for regular SEO?
   • Roughly how many distinct buyer prompts (e.g., "best CRM for X" or "alternatives to [Competitor] 2026") do you want to track each month?
