Profound vs Qvery

Profound

Profound is the enterprise end of AI-visibility measurement: it covers more answer engines than most rivals, adds crawler analytics and ChatGPT Shopping that the cheaper trackers lack, and has the funding and customer list to still exist next year. The price is the reason to hesitate - there is no published figure, the free trial is seven days of fifty prompts, and the self-serve agency plan exists only as a line in the FAQ. Mid-market teams will get most of the signal from a tracker with a public price; brands with real budget and a procurement team are the audience here.

Pros

• +Tracks up to nine answer engines, including AI Overviews, Copilot and DeepSeek, not just ChatGPT
• +Agent Analytics shows which AI crawlers visit and cite the site, a layer most trackers skip
• +Prompt Volumes estimates real user questions rather than relying on your own prompt list
• +SOC 2 Type II, SSO and an API, so it passes enterprise review

Cons

• −No published price; the only listed plans are a free trial and a custom Enterprise contract
• −Trial is 7 days, 50 prompts and three engines, with no exports or history
• −No legal entity, address or terms page found on the site
• −The agency plan is named in the FAQ but not in the plan table

Qvery

Qvery does the narrow job well: daily query runs against ChatGPT and Google AI Mode with the citations recorded, unlimited seats and unlimited countries on every tier, which is unusual in this category where geography is normally an upsell. The limits are real though. Two engines only, no Perplexity or Claude, and 50 tracked queries on the EUR 99 plan is a thin sample for a brand with a wide product range.

Pros

• +Daily runs against ChatGPT and Google AI Mode with citations captured
• +Unlimited countries and unlimited seats on every paid tier
• +Auto-generates the topics and queries from your brand data rather than making you write them
• +Named Estonian entity, so the jurisdiction is knowable

Cons

• −Only two engines covered; Perplexity, Claude and Copilot are absent
• −50 tracked queries on the entry tier is a small sample
• −The optimisation features that would act on the findings are roadmap, not shipped
• −No free tier or self-serve trial
