Use tool ↗About AuditAE
AuditAE runs buyer-style prompts against ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews, with Google AI Mode as an opt-in fifth engine, and records whether each answer names your brand, links your site, or credits a competitor instead. After an audit it writes a fix-it playbook per missed answer, and it also sells site crawls, rank checks, a WordPress plugin and an MCP server. There is no subscription: each prompt-and-engine check costs 5 to 12 cents depending on the engine, and new accounts start with $5 of free credit, enough for about 60 checks.

Pros & cons of AuditAE
AuditAE answers a narrow, specific question — does your brand show up when someone asks ChatGPT or Perplexity about your category — and charges per check instead of a flat subscription. That pay-as-you-go model is unusual in this space and keeps the cost of trying it low.
Pros
- Checks four engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini) in one pass, with Google AI Mode as an option
- Distinguishes being mentioned from being cited with a linked source
- Pay-per-check pricing (5 to 12 cents per prompt-engine pair) with $5 free credit to start
- Built by someone with direct SEO/agency background in the space it measures
Cons
- No flat subscription option for teams that would prefer predictable monthly cost
- Run by one individual trading as AuditAE rather than a registered company
- Usage-based pricing means cost isn't fixed if you scale up prompt/engine coverage
Best for
- Marketers who want to check AI-answer visibility occasionally without a subscription
- Anyone testing whether AI-citation tracking is worth adopting before committing budget
Not for
- Teams wanting a full always-on monitoring dashboard rather than on-demand checks
- Buyers who prefer a flat monthly price over usage-based billing
Watch out: Checks are priced per engine, so a Gemini check costs more than twice a Perplexity one, and auto-refill charges the saved card if you turn it on.
