AEOSearch or Otterly.AI

The same eight questions we ask of every tool on the list, ours included. Otterly.AI's answers are quoted from its own pages with the day we read them; ours are written against our code, and the price, assistants and passes are read from it. Where Otterly.AI is the better pick, that comes first.

Where Otterly.AI Is the Better Pick

The Eight Questions

Each one is something you can test in a trial of either tool. A cell that says “not stated” means we found no page that says it, not that the tool cannot do it.

  1. Lowest Listed Price

    What the cheapest thing on the price page costs, and what it buys.

    Otterly.AI
    “Lite … $29/month … 15 search prompts … Daily tracking frequency”otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05Our reading: Lite is $29 a month billed monthly, or $25 a month billed annually.
    AEOSearch
    A free scorecard: 4 questions on ChatGPT and Gemini. A report of your own from $25, priced before you pay.

  2. Assistants Measured

    Which AI assistants the numbers come from.

    Otterly.AI
    “Tracking of 4 AI Search Engines: ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, MS Copilot … Claude, Google AI-Mode, Gemini as extra Add-ons”otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05
    AEOSearch
    ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode. You choose which ones a report asks.

  3. Times Each Question Is Asked

    An assistant answers the same question differently from one run to the next, so a number built on one answer per question can move on a reroll.

    Otterly.AI
    “All tracked prompts are monitored daily, automatically.”help.otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05Our reading: Daily. Repeats within a day are not stated.
    AEOSearch
    Once or 3 times per question, chosen before you pay and printed on the report.

  4. Model Named on the Answer

    ChatGPT is several models, and they disagree. A number that does not say which one answered cannot be checked against the app.

    Otterly.AI
    “Claude - we track Claude via API, using Sonnet model with web search capabilities.”help.otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05Our reading: Claude is named as Sonnet, with no version; the others by assistant.
    AEOSearch
    Stored with every answer, and printed on the report for each engine whose provider reports it.

  5. Web Search Labelled

    An answer written without a web search reports what a model remembers, not what the live assistant says today.

    Otterly.AI
    “posting questions and prompts through the website of the AI search (like chatgpt.com etc), ensuring that the responses we capture are identical to what your customers experience.”help.otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05
    AEOSearch
    Stored with every answer. The report says, engine by engine, whether web search was on, and for Claude and Perplexity, how many answers searched.

  6. Answers You Can Read

    Whether the full answer behind a number opens when you ask for it.

    Otterly.AI
    “You can view individual prompt results, including the AI-generated answer text, directly in your dashboard.”help.otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05
    AEOSearch
    Every answer is stored in full, and the report opens the text behind its numbers.

  7. Branded Questions Counted Apart

    A question that already names you is one you will almost always win. Mixed into the headline, it inflates it.

    Otterly.AI
    “All Tags … Branded … Non-Branded”otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05Our reading: Branded and non-branded appear as tag filters in the homepage demo, and the onboarding guide advises separate reports for branded and unbranded sets. Its recommendations flag any branded prompt; whether reports split them on their own is not stated.
    AEOSearch
    Yes. Questions that name you or a competitor you track are scored apart from the ones that name none of them.

  8. Changes to Your Site

    Whether it edits your site, and whether each edit can be undone.

    Otterly.AI
    “Audit every page for crawlability, AI-readiness, and citation potential. Get a predictive score before you publish - and a brief to fix what's broken.”otterly.ai, read 2026-10-05Our reading: Audits pages and writes briefs; no page we read says it edits your site.
    AEOSearch
    Only through our plugins, only after you opt in on that site, and every change carries a rollback. The platform itself never edits your site.
