Persona-based AI visibility monitoring with page-level audits, for teams tracking how different buyer types get answered.
TL;DR verdict
The most capable purpose-built tracker we assessed, and the one asking the most useful question: not whether you were mentioned, but which kind of buyer failed to find you. Two things hold it back. The floor is the highest here, and the one integration on offer sits behind a sales call.
Scrunch AI monitors how answer engines describe your brand, and it does so per buyer type rather than in aggregate. You define personas, a finance lead and a practitioner say, and it tracks how each gets answered on the same question across seven assistants. Findings attach to individual pages rather than to the brand as a whole, so a gap points at a URL you can go and fix. It is built for teams treating this as an ongoing programme rather than an experiment.
The capabilities it ships, and which of them stand out.
Standout features
What the product does not do, kept separate from what we could not establish.
Product limitations
Could not verify
Teams selling to more than one kind of buyer
If a CFO and an engineer ask different questions and get different answers, no other product we assessed will show you which of them you are losing.
Content teams who need to know what to edit
Findings land on a URL, so the output converts into a work queue instead of a discussion about brand perception.
Organisations where this is already a budget line
The floor assumes a committed programme. Where that decision is made, the product justifies it more comfortably than anything else here.
Anyone still deciding whether to invest at all
The entry cost is roughly ten times the cheapest credible tracker. That is a large bet on a question you have not answered yet.
Teams who will build their own reporting
Exporting your data programmatically requires the unpriced top tier, so a reporting plan cannot be costed from the public site.
Larger teams counting logins
A fourth colleague triggers an upgrade worth several thousand a year, bought for a login rather than for capability.

What Scrunch AI connects to, and what it commits to in writing.
Integrations
Support
Email is the only support channel named anywhere on the site, with no tiered service levels published. The Data API — the one integration offered — is reserved for Enterprise, so the strongest product in the category is also among the least connectable below the top tier. Checked 12 August 2026.
Most of this category answers one question: when someone asks about your category, does an assistant say your name. That is a reasonable thing to measure and it is a blunt one, because it treats every asker as the same person. In reality a procurement lead, a technical evaluator and an end user ask differently worded questions and get materially different answers, and a brand can be strong with one and invisible to another.
Modelling that difference is the one genuinely distinctive idea we found across the twelve tools we assessed. It converts a visibility number into something closer to a diagnosis: not that you are down, but that you are absent from the answers a particular buyer gets. Whether the personas hold up under real use is the part no public page can settle, and we have not run this on a live account, so the capability reading here is drawn from published specification rather than from output we have seen.
The gap between how good the data looks and how hard it is to get out is the thing to weigh. This is the strongest tracker we assessed and among the least connectable below the top tier: one integration exists, and it is reserved for a plan carrying no published price. Everything else in the category that leads on capability at least tells you what programmatic access costs.
That matters more in the second year than the first. A team buying this today will work inside the product's own interface, which is well built and probably enough. A team a year in will want the numbers in a board deck alongside pipeline, and at that point the only route is a conversation whose price nobody outside the company can predict. Settle it before signing, not after.
Where another tool in the category fits a reader better.
Choose this if the budget has to be small and knowable. Far less product, but a tenth of the entry cost and programmatic access at a published price.
Read reviewChoose this if procurement matters as much as the product: single sign-on, a published response commitment, and edge integrations this has no equivalent to.
Read reviewChoose this if connecting to analytics and a CMS matters more than depth of tracking, and you want that below an enterprise contract.
Read reviewAimed at what the public site cannot settle.
From $250 a month billed annually, or $300 month to month. The second tier is $417 annually and $500 monthly, and Enterprise is quoted. Both billing cycles appear on the public pricing page. Checked 12 August 2026.
Seven: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, AI Overviews and Meta. That is the widest coverage on our AEO ranking, and none of the seven carries an add-on charge.
There is a Data API, but only on Enterprise, which carries no published price. If getting your own data into your own systems is part of the plan, establish what that costs before you commit to a lower tier.
Three at entry and five on the tier above. Seats are metered here, unlike Otterly.AI and Peec AI which both leave them uncapped, so headcount is a real cost input.
Yes, seven days without a card. That is the longest card-free trial we found in this category, and long enough to see a few days of tracking settle.
Personas let you track how different buyer types get answered on the same underlying question, rather than measuring the brand in aggregate. It is the feature no rival offers, and whether it earns the price depends on whether you genuinely sell to distinct audiences.
From the vendor's own published pages, read at source on 12 August 2026, and scored against the five review criteria. We have not used the product, so ease of use is left unscored rather than estimated.
Where AI visibility is already a programme rather than an experiment, this is the strongest product we assessed. Persona modelling is a genuinely original idea, seven assistants arrive without surcharges, and the pricing page is honest about what paying monthly adds. What you do not get below the top tier is programmatic access to your own data, and that is the thing most likely to matter once someone asks for these numbers next to pipeline. Buy it for the product, and settle the export question before you sign rather than after.

Rewritten to the rebuilt review format, and rescored against the five review criteria rather than inheriting the AEO ranking score. The rating moves from 4.0 to 3.5. Nothing about the product changed: the review frame does not credit the observable getting-started signals the ranking does, and against capability, cost, integrations and support, a single enterprise-only integration and a one-word support story weigh more heavily. The ranking is a separate assessment with its own criteria and is unaffected.
Support scored down from 5 to 4 after auditing what every vendor names publicly. Email is the only channel published anywhere on the site and no service level appears at any tier.
