Help with the words on this page
GEO
Short for generative engine optimization: how a brand shows up in answers from AI assistants.
Price
What the cheapest plan costs a month if you pay monthly. "Paid yearly" means the company shows this price only for paying a year at a time. "Before tax" means the company adds tax where it applies.
About
On a price, an estimate: the dollar amount of a euro price, or the company's own estimate from its price calculator.
Euro prices
We show them in dollars at the European Central Bank's rate on October 20, 2026. The euro price is in parentheses.
Checks ChatGPT
"Yes" means the tool's own site says its cheapest plan checks ChatGPT. "Yes, if you pick it" means you choose which AI assistants it checks.
AI assistants
The AI tools the cheapest plan checks. "You choose 3" means you pick which 3. The "Must check" filter looks at the cheapest plan too.
Questions it tracks
How many questions the cheapest plan asks for you. Companies call them prompts or queries.
Paused
The company says it has stopped checking that AI assistant for now.
How often it checks
How often it asks your questions again.
Help after the results
What the company says the cheapest plan does after it shows your results, such as suggest changes or draft content.
Work left for you
Our reading of the help the company describes. "Less" means it drafts content or makes some changes for you. "Some" means it suggests what to do. "Most" means it shows the results and you decide what to change.
Company claim
The company says so on its own website, and we could not check it. The other rows, apart from the work left, are the plan's terms from its pricing page.
Free trial
How long it lasts, and if you need a credit card. A free one-off check is not a trial or a free plan.
AI Overviews and AI Mode
Two Google features. AI Overviews is the summary above Google's results. AI Mode is a separate chat-style search.
