Frequently asked questions

What is the cheapest AI brand monitoring tool in 2026?

Astiva AI offers a permanent Free tier with 10 lifetime prompts across ChatGPT and Perplexity, no credit card required. The cheapest paid option in the category sits at $29/mo, with two tools at that price point: Astiva AI Lite at $29/mo (3 platforms: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Gemini; 3 competitors; daily monitoring) and Otterly Lite at $29/mo (15 prompts, four base engines: ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot). For ongoing daily monitoring with competitive intelligence across more engines and content generation, plan for $99 to $249/mo.

How much should I budget for AI brand monitoring?

For serious brand monitoring with daily updates, multi-platform coverage, and competitive analysis, budget $150 to $300/mo. Entry plans under $100/mo are good for validation but typically lack daily updates or full platform coverage. Enterprise plans with full platform access and custom security requirements run $400/mo and above, usually as custom quotes.

Which tools include GA4 revenue attribution?

Native GA4 revenue attribution is available on Astiva AI Growth from $249/mo, AthenaHQ Self-Serve from $295/mo, and Scrunch AI Enterprise. Profound restricts revenue attribution features to Enterprise tiers. Most other tools either do not offer GA4 attribution or route it through API integrations that require Enterprise contracts.

Which tools track Claude, Grok, Meta AI, and DeepSeek?

Astiva AI tracks Claude and Grok from Growth at $249/mo; Meta AI and DeepSeek become activatable on Pro at $499/mo; all 10 platforms in the catalogue activate at Enterprise. Profound restricts Claude, Gemini, Grok, Meta AI, and DeepSeek tracking to Enterprise tiers at $2,000 to $5,000+/mo. Peec AI charges $30 to $140/mo as per-model add-ons. Otterly does not track Claude, Grok, Meta AI, DeepSeek, or Mistral at any tier.
