Measured every week, with its margin
We ask your buyers' questions to each AI three times a week and show how often you appear, with a confidence range rather than a single position, and who gets cited when you don't.

Why weekly, not daily
Every week we ask each question 3 times to each AI in your plan.
A single daily answer swings a lot from one day to the next; several weekly samples give a more reliable figure.
- Starter: 3 answers from each of its 5 AI engines every week, about 65 answers per question a month (±10 points).
- Growth: 3 answers from each of its 5 AI engines every week, about 65 answers per question a month (±10 points).
- Business: 3 answers from each of its 6 AI engines every week (Claude: 1), about 69 answers per question a month (±10 points).
Answers a month = samples × AI engines × 4.3 weeks in an average month. The margin is the 90% confidence range (Wilson) in the worst case, a 50% rate; every figure in the app shows its own range.

Learn moreWhich one
Profound or Citable: which suits you?
Each has its strengths. What each one does best, and when to choose it.
Profound
What it does best
- Much broader platform: prompt volumes, ChatGPT Shopping, agent analytics across CDNs and AI Marketer agents that research, write and report.
- Daily runs and up to 9 answer engines on Enterprise, against our weekly samples on 5 to 6 engines (7 with the Grok add-on).
- Enterprise security and support (SSO/SAML, SOC 2, dedicated support), which we don't offer.
Choose Profound if…
- You're a large brand with a team to act on daily data across many engines, regions and languages.
- You need SSO, SOC 2 and a dedicated account team.
- You want agents and shopping data, not just mentions and citations.
Citable
What it does best
- A price you can see. €19, €49 or €89 a month per site, articles included; free agency account with 20% of every client payment. Learn more: A price you can see
- Articles included. Sourced articles for the questions where competitors get cited and you don't: 8 a month on Starter, 20 on Growth and 30 on Business (up to 90 with packs). Learn more: Articles included
- Straight into your CMS. Verified articles publish to your CMS (WordPress, Webflow, Framer, Shopify, Ghost or Notion, or anything else through a signed webhook) after an approval window, or stay as drafts. On WordPress they arrive as drafts unless you turn on automatic publishing. Learn more: Straight into your CMS
- Ranges, not single numbers. Each buyer question is asked three times per engine every week, and we report the share of answers that mention and cite you with a 90% confidence range. Learn more: Ranges, not single numbers
Choose Citable if…
- You want a published price per site, from €19 a month.
- You'd rather get a few sourced articles each month than a dashboard to act on yourself.
