Am I on AI is one of the more content-savvy entrants in AI search monitoring: a free 0-100 visibility checker, a set of public “Index” leaderboards that rank brands across 17+ categories, and a white-label program for agencies. It is also built around a two-engine model, ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, that does not widen no matter how far up its pricing you climb, starting at $100/mo Pro. If you need to see how the other AI engines cite you, here are the Am I on AI alternatives worth testing, compared honestly on the things that matter: engine coverage at your price, Claude and Grok, Search Console proof, and what you actually pay. All competitor facts were compiled from public pricing pages on July 16, 2026.
A note on fairness:
Why people look for Am I on AI alternatives
Am I on AI is a capable tool, and neither reason below makes it a bad one, they are simply where its published plans stop matching what a growing team needs. Teams evaluating Am I on AI and then shopping around usually cite a consistent pair of triggers (both from amionai.com/pricing, as of July 16, 2026):
- Coverage is only ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, on every tier. There is no Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok or Microsoft Copilot at any price, so if your buyers ask any engine beyond those two, you cannot monitor it here.
- $100 buys two engines. The higher tiers add prompts and personas, $349/mo Prism (750 prompts, five personas) and the waitlisted $2,500/mo GEO Council, but not more engines, so paying more never broadens your coverage.
If either of those is the reason you are here, the table below compares Am I on AI against three alternatives on exactly those points.

Compiled from each vendor’s public pricing page on July 16, 2026 (Am I on AI figures from amionai.com/pricing; Otterly.ai from otterly.ai/pricing; LLMrefs from llmrefs.com). Prices change often, verify before buying. ‘*’ = Am I on AI’s $100/mo Pro (150 prompts) is its entry tier; Prism is $349/mo (750 prompts, five personas) and GEO Council is a waitlisted $2,500/mo, none of which add engines beyond ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews. A dash in a cell means the figure is not specified in our source data for that tool. Note: Cituna checks all seven engines daily; MCP read tools are included from $39, write tools from Pro ($119).

Read the matrix by the row that matters most to you. Am I on AI is public about its pricing and strong on content plays like its leaderboards, but every tier stops at two engines; Cituna includes seven, Claude and Grok among them, at $39, and pairs Search Console with MCP at entry. Otterly.ai and LLMrefs both undercut Am I on AI on engines-per-dollar as well, which is why the right alternative depends on the one you are buying for.
What Am I on AI does well
Give Am I on AI its due, because it should shape your decision. Am I on AI leads with content: a free 0-100 AI-visibility checker, and “The Index”, public AI-visibility leaderboards across 17+ categories, which is a smart way to build authority and pull in an audience. Am I on AI runs a white-label program for agencies and claims more than 10,000 users, and it publishes its pricing openly, which not every tool does. Am I on AI’s entry plan is $100/mo Pro (150 prompts), stepping up to $349/mo Prism (750 prompts, five personas) and a waitlisted $2,500/mo GEO Council (as of July 16, 2026). The trade-off is coverage: every tier tracks only ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, with no Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok or Copilot at any price, no Search Console integration and no MCP at entry, and its fixes arrive as weekly action plans rather than generated markup. Am I on AI is a fair pick for teams and agencies whose buyers live in ChatGPT and Google, and who value the leaderboards and reselling more than broad engine coverage.
The alternatives in detail
How this list works: every entry tracks how AI engines mention and cite a brand. Cituna comes first: it is our product, and it tracks all seven engines daily, writes the fixes and publishes articles from $39/mo. After that the numbers help you find your way; they are not a ranking.
1. Cituna (best for seven engines and the fixes at $39)
If Am I on AI’s two-engine ceiling is what sent you looking, Cituna triples it and builds around the fix: it scans how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode cite your brand, all seven checked daily, shows the exact buyer prompts where you are missing, and generates the fix for each gap (schema, FAQ markup, llms.txt and the page changes), and its AutoSEO writes 30 articles a month on Starter and publishes them to WordPress, Shopify, a GitHub repo or any CMS by webhook. The full seven-engine set is in the $39/mo Starter, with Pro at $119 and Max at $399 covering 90 tracked prompts, 10 brands, API access and priority support for agencies and high-volume sites. A native Google Search Console integration ties the work back to real clicks, and a built-in MCP server is included from $39 so you can query your scans from Claude or any MCP client, read tools on Starter, write actions like running a scan on Pro. When you need custom prompt pools, brands or engine cadences with invoiced billing, our Enterprise plan covers it. We do not track Microsoft Copilot, though neither does Am I on AI. We run Cituna on ourselves, too: our own July 17, 2026 self-scan of cituna.com tracked citations across all six engines on ten buyer prompts, exactly the cross-engine coverage a two-engine tool can’t give you.
2. Otterly.ai (best when Microsoft Copilot matters more than Claude)
If the two-engine ceiling is your issue, Otterly.ai answers it cheaply: its published entry plan is $29/mo for four engines (as of July 16, 2026), cheaper than Am I on AI and covering more engines, which is exactly the engines-per-dollar gap Am I on AI leaves open. Otterly’s four are Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity and Microsoft Copilot on 15 prompts, with Gemini, Google AI Mode and Claude sold as add-ons and no Grok at any tier, so check which of those your buyers use before you compare it line for line.
3. LLMrefs (best for the longest engine list on a weekly refresh)
For sheer breadth, LLMrefs has the longest engine list here: a flat $79/mo for eleven engines with a weekly refresh (as of July 16, 2026). If your buyers are spread across many assistants and you want one predictable line item rather than per-engine add-ons, that flat, wide coverage is the draw. As with Otterly, our source data covers its price, engine count and refresh cadence rather than its full feature set, so confirm the specifics on its site.

How to switch from Am I on AI
Moving your monitoring across is a short job, because the inputs are the same prompts and competitors you already track:
- Export your prompts and competitors from Am I on AI. Copy the buyer questions you monitor and the competitor list you benchmark against, that set is the only thing you truly need to carry over.
- Recreate them in Cituna. Add your domain, paste the same prompts and competitors, and let it map them across all seven engines rather than two.
- Run your first scan. Your first run establishes a baseline across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode, and surfaces the prompts where you are missing plus the generated fixes to close them.
- Connect Google Search Console. Link GSC so the tool can tie AI citations back to real clicks and impressions, proof Am I on AI does not offer, and, if you want the scans and fix statuses in your own workflow, connect the MCP server.
The fastest way to compare is to point both tools at the same prompts and domain during a free trial and see which one shows you the gaps, and the fixes, you care about. For the wider field, see our rundown of the best AI visibility tools.
