Which product would we choose?

The order below is for reading. It does not rank market share, popularity, or measured performance.

Do not budget from old Profound pricing

The canonical pricing page is the buying reference. Historical announcements can explain how the product evolved, but they do not establish what is available to a new customer today. Ask whether the quote covers monitoring, marketing-agent credits, regions, data access, onboarding, and the integrations your team requires.

Compare that written scope with the work GeoRamp would actually replace. If you already have a content production system, an enterprise agent suite may duplicate it. If your team needs one governed workflow for measurement and content operations, a narrowly priced tracker can leave important work elsewhere.

What we can substantiate about GeoRamp

GeoRamp has prompt management, daily refresh jobs, stored answer analysis, citation/source views, visibility and sentiment views, competitor analysis, and a deterministic page-audit implementation. Its public plan matrix names ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok. The implementation uses provider APIs; those samples should not be presented as the exact answers a logged-in customer sees in the consumer applications.

Basic includes one brand and one seat. Pro includes two brands, three seats, and three tracked competitors. Business includes five brands and six seats. The published annual totals are $948, $2,028, and $5,028, equivalent to $79, $169, and $419 per month when paid annually. Visitor analytics and generated GEO articles are marked coming soon.

The Business matrix advertises API access and white-label reports, but our implementation review found placeholder report download, sharing, and scheduling actions. Confirm the specific working delivery path before buying for those requirements. We also have not established a shipped native Google Analytics or Search Console connector, SSO, SKU-level shopping tracker, or CDN content-delivery service.

Test the handoff between evidence and action

Bring a real buyer question and a real source discrepancy to the trial or demo. Ask the operator to trace the finding to an answer, prepare a content change, and identify who approves publication. Evaluate whether the workflow matches your review process rather than how many assets it can generate.

For log integrations, include the engineer who controls hosting. Check which data is collected, how incomplete log coverage is reported, and how you would disconnect the integration. A prompt mention and a crawler visit answer different questions; neither proves that a visitor purchased because of your content.

When a free workflow is enough

If you need a first diagnosis rather than unattended monitoring, use Search Console for Google crawl and indexing checks, inspect the public HTML, and keep a small manual answer log. Record question, platform, country, date, answer, and source URL. Include failures and absent answers rather than silently dropping them.

The free workflow costs time and may require an existing AI account. It is better when you have a narrow problem and someone can run and review the checks. Upgrade when recurring collection, shared evidence, or broader coverage changes the decision. Search Console does not provide cross-engine brand-mention tracking.

Frequently asked questions

Does Profound still have a $99 Starter plan?

The current canonical pricing page we checked on October 8, 2026 shows a free trial and custom Enterprise offer. Older $99 Starter references do not establish a current purchasable plan. Confirm directly with Profound.

Why might the visibility scores disagree?

Prompt selection, model or interface, country, schedule, context, and brand matching can differ. Inspect those settings and the underlying answers before comparing percentages. A score difference is not a controlled accuracy test.

Will buying either product guarantee more AI citations?

No. Monitoring can reveal sampled mentions and source gaps; page work can improve access and clarity. Inclusion depends on the answer engine and question. Google documents no special AI markup requirement or inclusion guarantee.
