Profound vs Skillaeo

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

Skillaeo

Skillaeo gives a snapshot of whether AI answer engines currently mention a domain for a set of prompts, which is a reasonable starting signal even though the site itself says results are a point-in-time sample rather than a guarantee of future visibility. The free tier is thin enough that it mainly works as a taste of the paid product.

Pros

• +Checks multiple AI engines (GPT, Claude, Gemini) rather than just one
• +Free anonymous check requires no signup for an initial look
• +Reports competitor mentions alongside your own domain, not just a standalone score

Cons

• −Free and entry plans cap both audit count and question depth fairly low
• −The company is explicit that snapshots aren't predictive of future AI visibility
• −No company or location information disclosed on the site
